Never forget what happened on this day, one year ago.

my 2 cents

All transaction were reverted from that specific time frame...

Although the crash that happened 3 months ago was legit and you could've made a couple thousands cr selling 100 ce at 40k cr

I agree with Zeddy, no roll back was done, and that caused a quitting spree on the forums. The people who benefited from that incident, still has their earned money from it till now.

Long story short, someone whom was planning on quitting found an exploit to gain infinite cr. They used their limitless cr pool to buy out the ce market, and inflate prices immensely.

How horrible! /GASP

On a serious note, I can see how that could cause some issues.

"no roll back was done"

You sure about that? .-. I could swear they did do a rollback.

I prolly just have a faulty memory.

I recall it being asked for, but I think Eurydice pretty much said the market had auto-corrected itself so no rollback was necessary. The user in question was banned of course, and maybe some select people had their crowns taken away for all I know, but I for one gained a couple of hundred k that day I never lost.

OOO removed all crowns that were obtained illegitimately. However, anything that was spend using said Crowns (IE: Accessories, Rolls, CE, etc) was not reverted. Hence, a lot of people went out and did thousands of rolls before the reboot happened. Same with everyone buying out all the Hacked Auras on the Auction House and then reselling them later.

I'd rather a rollback happen but this was a year ago.

It was over 1 million!

Thanks for bringing this up Weedalot! The Gamemasters and Developers are probably trying to make players waste those crowns by making lots of Promotions and the Depot sales.

I ended up gaining a bit from this (80k I think), but I know one person who got ten MILLION crowns from selling 100 CE...

Three Rings probably weren't that bothered by it because of how much CE was sucked out of the market. Then people bought more CE because they saw the CE price go up and they wanted a share in the boon.
So a bunch of people got rich really quick, Three Rings had a considerable boost in CE sales for that one day, and a bug exploiter got banned. Everyone wins, right? And since it was an accident, people who didn't get money from it can't complain that they should have compensation because it never should have happened anyway.
And to roll it all back would mean that there could have been grounds for people to ask for refunds on the CE that they bought.

For the record, it got up to

For the record, it got up to 10m crowns per 100 CE.

No, I don't feel like proving it. But it did. Search for proof yourself, I'm lazy.
