@Danbooru: First of all, inflation is never a good thing. There's a problem when good equips are cheap, a major one in which has been addressed multiple times already. There's a reason why nx rates are so absurdly high compared to before, that's cause the value of mesos has gone down so drastically due to the haxers. Do you hear anyone in the United States cheering that the us dollar is worth less than they were before?

[quote=Danbooru]@Azngothopz: I used to be just like you but there's no need to rage. If anything the hackers have made godly equips a lot cheaper... its easier for people to become godly enough to solo bosses. Just two years ago it would cost 15-20k (usd) worth of NX to be godly enough to solo PB, now you can get enough out of your NX with 3-5k of NX to get 500-700k range.[/quote]

This is the reason I don't spend money on this game because Nexon pulls stunts like banning everyone who didn't do everything wrong to stop the exploit. In my opinion they should have just hellbanned all accounts.

GM Panthiro: If your account was banned and it was a mistake then compensation might be given. However, if the ban was intentional then there will not be any compensation. However, It's too early to say right now and I suggest that you keep an eye on our website.

I had wanted to ask a few more questions but he/she immediately ended the chat after that. </3 how rude[/quote]

Alot of people have been asking about the attendance but at the time i wasn't really thinking about that I was more concerned about getting the account back first.

[quote=Danbooru]not all hackers are bad... its just the case that a huge amount of hackers are also scammers.
GS actually has a very nice hacker community. and i know a lot of people on basil here are also actually active over on their forums. and no, they aren't terrible people. i even know a couple of people who have been abusing the hell out of this exploit, and they're cool people as well.

but yes most hackers are also scammers.[/quote]

Oh god, no wonder our community is going down the drain. Innocent people are getting banned on a massive scale, many of whom will lose either time/equips/mesos etc due to these hackers who only think for themselves and not for the good of the whole community. And I have sit here and read how hackers are nice and cool despite the grave peril they have plunged the game into? Yes, not all hackers are evil, but let's measure them by their actions and not what kind of car they like or what anime they are into.

You find something annoying that isn't even in your world. Either you're just bored trying to find something to do or you're just stupid. Get over it. @Paid doesn't even care anymore.

[quote=lexftsummer]They took part in an exploit that I never knew about until today. Do I care though? No.

He's A/C'd spots before, and one of my scanian friends told me he used to a/c spots as well. I wouldn't have any problem with him if he would just stop trying to act legit, whenever he's not. It really irritates me.[/quote]

This is getting really off thread but listen to yourself you're mad at him and you're not even in Scania. I don't even understand why it bothers you. It's so idiotic, why does it matter if he acts legit or not? Are you trying to be a troll on basil? You're just looking stupid. So please stop. >.<

Oh my fault I didn't mean "scams" i mean you claim he a/c's spots with no proof. The person who said he a/c's spots is from Bera and you just agreed with him with no proof. Sorry I find your comments rather idiotic. So you have friends who took part in the exploit that's why you're defending it.

[quote=lexftsummer]The exploit that's public now is different from the one that was used to gain all the mesos. The exploit that got everyone banned was 10b mesos every two hours, and it will be patched pretty soon.[/quote]

I'm curious, did you take part in the exploit because you don't really seem to care about anyone that was banned. You simply attacked @Paid because he was just telling everyone that a GM responded so there would be less havoc. You simply are claiming he scams with no proof at all. If you can find me a screenshot or video evidence like he did I will stop defending him but until then you need to relax. >.<

We might get compensated and they usually do give us the time back on our CS equips. But only time will tell.

Yeah from what I've seen. My friend got another GM and the GM said something like "I've seen you posted a ticket about this" and then closed it on him. GM Nyurak is the only one who has seemed to stay in the live chat with anyone. Resurrection of GM Hime? Who knows!

[quote=Necromades]I think that statement just says that Event B has to also happen given Event A has already happened in order for Event C to happen; if you were permanently banned and Nexon finds out (after investigation) that you were actively participating in the exploit, then Event C (ban will remain) will happen.[/quote]

That's much more rational. Maybe I just needed someone to spell it out for me. Thank you.
