@Asiaox123: But if they were also banning the people the items came from, and "if" they got the account with the mesos. Then yes, they would have gotten them. Which the TS posted that they did ban people who were doing this as well. Who knows or cares? I don't even know the TS' source on this info.
nexon shouldve banned everyone that had those items. but they didnt since theyd lose their biggest income source-dumb idiots that buy off hackers. i dont agree with that nexon purposefully left some of the items but its only to keep maple running so meh.
Dang I haven't logged n a couple of days, hope this didn't effect me at all.
@BackFired: Hooray!
Let's run away together.
Hahaha. You got what you deserved buying illegitimate items. Thank you Nexon for doing this! Way to use a hack to drop billions of mesos into black hole from which they will never return. I'm sure this has been a better meso-sinker than potions could ever be!
i dont see it on the ms website
I'm sorry for you lost, but items like that are risky to purchase in the first place.
I'm glad Nexon actually deletes them
@thingy97: not just any bearodatcyl, a motherf( )ing bearodactyl!
OT: Just checked, and they're actually still there(muahahaha!) o.o Seems that Nexon only deleted items that were supposed to be unobtainable/extremely rare, like maroon mops, noob apple suits, GM scrolls, etc. some folks have seen smegas with people wearing GM hats though, and it seems that a lot of legit summoning sacks were deleted as well. Oh Nexon...
that is a lie D: I see an apple uniform in the MTS right now 32k nx
still have my specs in my inventory so no, not screwed at all <3
[quote=ketchup11]Yup, those hackers screwed me pretty hard. we did it under the sea, in outer space... [b]everywhere[/b]
my clean specs from the mts are probably gone... oh well.[/quote]
Did you give birth to a bearodactyl?
OT: Well, it was a risky choice, and I guess you lost.. I didn't even play though, so I'm safe. c:
[url=http://i.imgur.com/uExfb.png]Well.[/url]
OT: Anyone else notice the TS left a while ago?
lol I still have my specs?
I bought Specs from the MTS. They appeared duped.
Why am I not banned?

i have a prominent position as a research fellow,
20b meso = a days work? maybe 2? maybe less?
it really sucks because the nebulites for all my items were mostly rank a nebulites that i had gotten rid of in order to fit s ranks..
no1 sells a rank %dex or allstat anymore because alien cubes are gone.
its just retarded how nexon doesnt announce that there is an exploit and we should avoid it[/quote]
Uh im sorry but that's mainly your fault. Everyone knows nexon hasn't released S rank nebs yet so if you see them in the fm, you should have been cautious about where they came from. But yeah it's still nexon's fault for not warning people ahead of time.
LOL at ts
so basically you can make 20b a day. thts like 600b a month. seems legit enough for me
[quote=Gentrified]It wasn't me. [/quote]
Thats a legit gm?
[quote=Gentrified]It wasn't me. [/quote]
such a legit GM
@iDawnxAngelx YEAH!... totally agree with you, XD...
If Nexon gave away A Nebs, didn't you think that maybe MAYBE "S" Nebs were generated? I mean, if they were legit, then there would be more "S" nebs...
I've read your comments and they contradict on what you've said... First you don't know about they were exploited because of ingorance, then u claim to be merching, please...
If you don't know what are you doing here, neither do we... If you were looking for sympathy you could have gone to a hacker forum and cry to them as much as you want...
Honestly, didn't you see it coming ...
Yup, those hackers screwed me pretty hard. we did it under the sea, in outer space... [b]everywhere[/b]
my clean specs from the mts are probably gone... oh well.
I feel absolutely no sympathy for you. You weren't screwed by hackers, you were screwed by your own idiocy for buying items that you knew were obtained by illegitimate means.
lol.... it was obvious to me and all my friends that they were going to delete those items and give bans.. its happened before and its pretty obvious to nexon when there are items that dont exist floating around in the market.
I say you deserved it.
Don't even act like you didn't think anything was going to happen.
My bunny mount disappeared. >.<
i didnt get screwed by hackers but nexon is pretty dumb for what they did they couldve handled it better (roll back)
they let the hackers make money when they should be trying to stop them and everyone else got screwed what about the people that didnt know
the people that bought a hacked item didnt deserve it they shouldnt be at fault they werent breaking any rules they werent hacking
hahahahahahahahahahahahaha.
owned.
when you say "make 20b" we all know you mean "buy 20b from meso sites"
Way to blame others for your stupid mistake.
thats your fault to bad. mainly its nexons fault but you shouldnt have bought hacked items its like buying a j-tag ( for xbl) then microsoft patches j-tags so there unusable.you knew what you signed up for
You got screwed over by your own greed.
Good for you. I am laughing right now.
I'm a bit lost, where is the update notes?
@t0ky0mike: Well, I double clicked the thing when my temp. one expired, so it said "Bunny skill obtained!" or whatever. I don't remember if it just took the same hotkey automatically or not, but today I was going to put it on and I couldn't find it in my mounts, skills, or anywhere.
If this helps, I believe the first one had an expiration date when it was in the "use" tab, and this 2nd one did not

Sorry for your loss...but i don't really sympathize with you, cause you're not like say level50 with no buddies to ask around if the S rank were legit.
You could always ask buddies or forums like basilmarket if they were actually obtainable through events etc =X
Guess lesson
Don't worry you'll be able to get your items since its easy for you to gather funds
I still have my VSS o:
[quote=MrDingy]hey, was the empress weps deleted too? reply please, thanks[/quote]
No, because they were obtainable without hacks and have unique IDs due to item generation, they werent deleted.
Edit: Lol at above poster who is likely a hypocrite using Empress equips likely farmed by hackers and scrolls that were duped.
Well, there goes my chance of getting Decent AB and a Dominator Pendant.
I say nexon just RB back to V.0.1
[quote=coloroo]I have absolutely no sympathy for people who had their items deleted.
They very well knew they were buying an illegally made item and they should not be surprised when the illegal item is removed without any form of compensation to them.[/quote]
She said she thought they were legit. Didn't u read the comments?
Elemental staffs got deleted too right?
@larryd23:
do the time, okay officer
Almost bought 4% Str specs for 450m, but then I made a reason not to because I don't like spending money.. I made the right choice?
@KFCityx:
nah just funding my char, got 15b left to scroll wep / get ears / get mask / cube belt. which is obviously not enough
not to mention having to get all a nebs and then upgrading to S AGAIN when it comes out, guess theres no shortcuts
I lost my bunny mount
[quote=oOpoleyOo]yeah i ahve my dom hol and medal, wish i had invested more in those XD[/quote]
On the one hand, you have claimed ignorance that the items you spend 20B on were hacked and on the other hand, you now state that you wish you had purchased more of the items that you now know were hacked but didn't get deleted.
You did the crime, now do the time.
@Maynard: Not really irrelevant because if the spawned ones got deleted then they would inflate.
[quote=FunMotion]How much are specs now..?[/quote]
irrelevant to the thread but 250-300 in scania
How much are specs now..?
