Hmmm don't know what you're talking about. I wasn't rolled back at all. But oh well...1.5 hours when compared to your total play time over even just a month would seem miniscule probably. Besides...the game is a journey, not an end product...look at it as you get do those 1.5 hours over again and better this time

I'm sorry that most of you will feel offended by what has happened. If it had not happened though ... *looks 6 weeks into the future*
OMG why are prices on everything so high and that guild is so uber. How can they pay for all of that? How did they manage to get all of that stuff so fast? No other players are close to where they are ...
Why ... because someone found a bug in game and used it to 'get ahead'. That is an exploit ... either way someone isnt going to be happy. Things happen and we learn about it ... I'm sure there are a few players who collected a few death's during that time and are jumping for joy they dont have to pay those back.
Me ... I would hope that someone would be better about things and report it rather than exploit it. That will never happen so I am willing to accept the price for a better game in the end.
I would hope that is what everyone wants. A better game ...

Hmmmm sounds so logical it might actually be true!

Actually it is pretty close if you read Cerest's post in the announcements.
But hey ... poop happens. Live, learn and move on.
Dwelling and complaining about what has gone on before doesnt get anyone anything.
Doing something based on the knowledge gained does ... for everyone who isnt happy ... move on.

They should have fixed the duping bug but NOT rolled back.
It is not worth losing all the effort done to remove a few duped items form the game.

A few? Dupers rarely go small.

Without knowing the extent of what happened ... ? Fixing it may not have been enough if someone spent the 2 hours duping hundreds of units of choice mat.

Sorry but that's a rather broad assumption. I've met and talked to a lot of people from around the world in many MMOGs and everyone likes to gripe and complain just as much as someone else from another country. Ever listen to some of the higher level players in FFXI who are Japanese?
Lol you can't tell me that people from any other country don't complain and gripe about things just as much as American's do.

I'm an American. That wasn't a jab -- I said it cause it's true when applied to a lot of us
