I couldn't agree more. I think that the vast majority of people play D3 to kill stuff and get sweet loot, and this will never change. It seems like some people enjoy bashing on others no matter how they go about doing it, HC-SC-AH-RMAH-no AH at all. The ones that really make me laugh are those who quit and feel the need to tell everyone about it. We know this isn't the first time that an exploit has hit the scene, but the sun keeps coming up, the game is getting better (imo), and people will keep playing. If you don't play that's cool too, but don't you have anything better to do? | ||

he got an email saying the gold had been successfully rolled back, and that all his items were now all account-bound However, he muled his gold to a second account, and that gold hasn't been taken back I don't know if people who kept the gold on their account actually had their gold taken away, but if you muled your money to somewhere, you prob still have it :O | ||

This probably sits somewhere in the low 60's alongside that time in WoW where during an in-game funeral for someone who had actually died in real life a group of players came and killed everyone. The hyperbole on this site is staggering. | ||

Btw, D2 had a bigger 'crash', where all accounts could be easily hacked, and they actually made selective rollbacks, where you had to sign up your account for it. That was right after the world's first level 100 char. | ||

Specifically the Stock Market Crash which precipitated it (Known as Black Tuesday). Prices skyrocketed as the dollar's buying power plummeted. Prices on AH skyrocketed as money became worthless (easily obtained in great amounts quickly). It took a long time to recover then, and he compares that to the far reaching effects he expects to see now. Great depression would be my guess, so Black Friday? Black Friday is the day that has come to mean the day after thanksgiving when many companies that have been "in the red," i.e. operating at a loss all year, are now "in the black" from the increased shopping the day after thanksgiving. Thanksgiving on a Thursday, Black Friday follows. | ||

I did a few calculations: If a gold piece is as large as 1 euro cent, it would weigh ~5g, as gold is roughly double as dense as iron or copper, which is what those coins are made of. Thus, if you own 1b gold pieces, that would weigh 50000000000g, or 5000 tons. This are ~250 m³ of gold, or a 5m*5m*10m brick made of pure gold. | ||
