If they hadn't fixed it I wouldn't have believed it. I havent been in pre-sear in almost a year, so whatever.

And no, just because you could do it doesn't mean you its ok for you to do it. It's obvious to any bozo that is not how the game is supposed to work. Thats why it's called an exploit. It's taking advantage of a bug or error in the game to circumvent the rules of the game.

The people who did this don't deserve any more sympathy than those who exploited the Doppleganger.

And although I imagine the items are still in pre-sear, they'll eventually vanish as people customize them to their characters and move to post-searing. Either way, no one would really have more than a couple of hundred gold to purchase anything. It's a stupid way to make money anyways.

When did they fix the emblemer so you can now see the cape colors now instead of the cape being dark on the emblmer?

This thing was around when Observer mode was first enabled, and it's good to know it was finally fixed.

Some people just want to make a lvl 20 Pre-Searing character a little faster.

Some people were trying to sell the items to newbies in pre-sear, although I honestly don't see how someone who is actually new to the game will have 3k to buy a Bag.

im glad they fixed it. i was surprised that it was left as a viable action. i never did it because im not a exploiting hacker but it was tempting if i wanted to start another character.

people abusing this exploit deserve a 24h ban

I never once saw GuildHall in my Guild roster window when in presearing although I ddn't press G in Observer mode either.Oh well I think it would of been fun though maybe just to the hall only no where else.This might of helped in recriuting as some in pre say they have hall but maybe they are working on it.

If builders built buildings the way programmers write programs, the first woodpecker to come along would destroy civilization.

That said, they should still fix the holes they find.

That is EXACTLY the kind of thinking that leads to stuff like this in the first place.

You still get arrested for tresspassing even if they left the door unlocked and a window open.

The fact of the matter is people explioted a bug that CLEARLY went aganist the design of the game, so your breaking the rules which makes you a cheater, which makes you bannable blah blah blah.

You should read what kind of stuff gets you in trouble before you say stuff like that.
