1. Who are these "most successful game testers" ?

2. Read the ToS...
Pretty much always afk or tabbed out.

Let's get something straight right now.

There were a handful of people who, upon discovering the bug and potential for exploit, notified us. These people did the right thing, and have not been banned. They let us know in a private manner so as not to bring undue attention to the issue, and we tested and implemented a fix immediately.

The people that were banned were the most useless of testers, because they thought that getting a leg up on their fellow testers and players was more **** important than helping us fix the game.

You're allowed to be salty about a wipe, that's your prerogative. But you do not get to cry over us firing people who did not do their jobs. If you think that's unfair, you can uninstall.

It is actually quite scary when you think of your text in the head and read it with the tone of Judge Dread. ;)
God Job on the bans. This is no free for all party where every one can do what they want. This is a serious private server. Keep up the good work.

GJ on that.
At the same time it will be interesting to find out if DDoS attacks will increase after the wave of bans/wipes.

Lol. They should only ban the accounts. If they want to start fresh they should be able to.
Is this a shitpost? Let me know through personal message.

glad you banned them, shows you're not screwing around.

as for all the lazy ones calling for the gold wipe. if you really think that you can buy your way out of being a crappy player, you're going to be very sad. i know a lot of folks that farm like crazy for mats and they deserve to keep their gold.

if the devs decide to do a wipe, that's their job and everyone can stand by that but don't let lazy folks call it.

Am I the only one enjoying this post like a silly school girl looking at her crush?
I spoke about the current situation of our economy in ad chat countless of time and got beaten down verbally by (I presume the exploiters) about how I'm broke and should go try and get stuff. Because 500g for a tier 1 item is ridiculous anyway you look at it and is not healthy for the economy of the game. So yea I'm loving the fall of the ban hammer! Keep up the good work guys.
ELUNE be praised!
