So everyone has to suffer because of it ???
Thats total BS, they should have known how to track what was being duped and not ROLL EVERYONE BACK !! So now we have this to look foward to everytime someone figures a dupe out ??
Gimme a break, just put our Toons back to what they were......

I've seen rollbacks in several games. Ideally for exploits only the exploiter is rolled back (and suspended), other times, other places I've seen different actions.

Horizons - cash duping, on the 2nd or 3rd day all cash above 100s was removed from all players regardless of guilt or innocence. Later exploits tended to not be punished or to be selectively executed against some of the worse offenders.

DAoC - always, in 3 years, only the guilty were punished. I did see one 20 minute or so rollback of everyone from a crash.

SWG - punish everyone for everything.

Shadowbane - see no evil, hear no evil, punish no evil.

Let's see how judiciously Nevrax handles this. It will determine a lot of the good will or lack thereof in players in the future.

I just read the post above my last one. Really guys. We all know full well that this is what MMORPGs are like, and we all know the reasons why. Either you like it enough to pay for it and play it, like I do, or it's not worth it enough for you to pay, and you don't. But for God's sake people, don't whine like this...

*notes that the fact that they rolled all of us back is probably simply because they couldn't track the offenders due to the nature of the bug*
