General

When does anything matter to the average player? Nobody cares about them.
They just need to remove the stars from the shop, hellban the people who exploited it, and delete the mesos like they do every time.
Btw, it's not that hard to get a program and plug in some codes..

@TheGhosted: I think you're missing the point hackers are going to exploit no matter what and this exploit is next to useless to your average player whom can make more just playing the game normally. That said yeah if someone is able to buy a full inventory and sell it in the matter of 2 second those are exploiting but those people are going to hack/exploit no matter what. They need to just limit the amount of items that can be bought and be done with it.

They're all unaware of what a few mesos on multiple accounts with programs can do..

[quote=TheGhosted]A lot of people already did the prequest. And with what was released to the general public, you were making approximately 36m/hr on 100ms delay.. anything lower would be faster mesos.. 360m/hr on 10ms delay.

EDIT: those numbers are based on the use of only 1 bot, and there are people using as much as 20 bots simultaneously..[/quote]

Your like the only person that has posted other than me with any idea of what was going on

[quote=Hitohax]You're blowing the so called "exploit" out of proportion the amount of time to do the prequest just to make a 1.5k profit is hardly worth it.[/quote]

[quote=amin45678]No. I meant that the Tyrant boxes were the exploit. If you buy the stars and resell them to the same NPC apparently you get a ~2k profit. Such a game-breaking-economy-ruining exploit MIRITE? And if you sell the stars in your fm store for 10mil each, that is not game breaking, that is just selling to uninformed noobs.[/quote]

Actually, the tyrant boxes were something seperate; they were just giving out something that wasn't a tyrant item (specifically, fafnir items)

the exploit was a thing involving one of the shops in Tynerum.

With the bot, you can buy and sell a full inventory of stars within less than 3 seconds.. with multiclient, that's is quick money bro.. i'm not sure you understand --'

20 accounts x 2k mesos x full inventory = 20m a minute, quite the meso exploit i would say.

[quote=xtripled]that's not what's it for:
"Changes and Updates:

A fix will be applied so that players are not stuck in Maple Bingo if they happen to disconnect.
Tyrant Armor Boxes no longer have a chance to give a Fafnir Weapon."
and short maintenance & Nexon don't belong in the same sentence[/quote]

Umm Did you not read the whole thing?

[quote=TheGhosted]Thanks for repeating exactly what I said.[/quote]

[quote=lilazninja]gollux stars? new drop?[/quote]

You're able to buy flaming throwing stars and infinite knives from the Gollux shop for like 30k apiece

Thanks for repeating exactly what I said.

[quote=TheGhosted]But it also says "We will be performing an unscheduled maintenance on December 18, 2013 [b]to fix an exploit that impacts the economy[/b]. It will last approximately TBD." which refers to people making bots to buy full inventories of stars and reselling them immediately, which is an exploit that impacts the economy...[/quote]

That [b]IS[/b] the exploit that impacts the economy.

gollux stars? new drop?

@TheGhosted: that is true, guess nexon just didn't want to openly say what it was

Meh i think an hr minimum and 3 hours MAX but I could be wrong.

[quote=krunk1011]All they have to do is change the amount that you get when you sell Gollux Stars[/quote]

Actually no, I don't even think the stars should be able to be bought from there w/o a limit.

They're also fixing the Tyrant Armor boxes and people getting stuck when they d/c during bingo.

So I can keep my stars? Sweet
