[NOTICE] Exploits and Abuse

Yeah I would think they would need Petrol and oort to run. And you can turn them off or on per activity. They do a run and stop. Not indefinitely. And they can do x movements or x time running, before more fuel is needed. But you could have like multiple robots that plant, multiple that fertilize and then multiple that harvest. Just an idea, I dont know the logistics

Oh God, this is my wish too!

Think you Re right AS a Shop owner your are the Last of everything . Trying to make IT good for both Sides seller and buyer and the Most important to keep the Stock in your Business.

I thinking about to quit my Shop ITS more profitable to sell the Things you Don t need and get this was some coins for Things i need . Nö looking is there enough Money to toll the request baskets and is still enough in Stock to sell to keep everybody Happy.

What the Farming belongs i would Like to have faster seeding has Not to BE 3*3 but a way more faster would Like the Double Speed of the current .

And the Spark Thing is was crazy working in my Shop so many hours and they minted Money in nö time Like our country are giving Credits right now for everything in covid Times .

I Like the Game with all the possibilitys but in the Last weeks i feel Not so Happy anymore with the Game can BE more reasons one my lost cubits i m waiting for and nö straight Line from Developer Side . IT feels Like many people cry they do Something but If a few Tell or say Something wrong is Happening IT feels Like they Don t ingnore them but ITS Not the First PrioritÀt even IT could BE important for the Game and how IT will Change the Game.

All this is my personal thoughts.

Oh no definitely is my cup of tea. I love that sort of micro management. One of my favorite games was “My Life as a King” on the Wii where you basically had to slowly upgrade your town via the resources brought back from the quests you sent your adventures on. So while you tended to the comings and goings of the town itself during the day and sent the adventures off, while you slept through the night (think old school animal crossing) they would do their tasks and return the next day for you to check how successful they were and what they brought back. The you’d build up the town even more and higher level adventures would come for you recruit and repeat ad nauseum until you fleshed out the map and finished the story f the game.

but yea I definitely like micro management stuff like that, so your drones/robotics idea is fun to me. Using oort dolls like they were reanimated ancient oort spirits sounds kind of creepy and cool thinking about it more.

This was the game "Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: My Life as a King

Omg that is my favorite wii game too. Wish I could play it on steam. Played it several times through and having been looking for games like it ever since. But it is unique.

This is just a slap in the face for all the honest players that didn’t exploit it.
All this is gonna do is cause more abuse next time.

100% correct and a punishment is not in place next time, because it was ‘‘ok’’ that previous time why should it be a problem now, i have not been abusing it knowing it was there i could have become a multi millionaire, but why would i be messing up the game i love so much?

See, collectively we’re going to have to find a way past this. Hopefully one that doesn’t include casting a ton of shade and nasty implications/name calling between players.

  • The minter advertised a price
  • People minted stuff
  • The minter paid the specified price

This was an oversight. It’s not a bug and it’s not an exploit

If the minter offers 0.02 for a rock but you learn that by stacking certain types of rocks you can get 1c per rock, and you start to do your stacks like that, I would call that an exploit and/or a bug, and agree that it should be punishable.

Lots of “matter of opinion” here but still

I think our collective punishment is having to read a bunch of players insinuate some kind of malevolent intent on our part over a bit of coin I could’ve made in maybe twice as much time doing most other things.
The value was fixed.
Sorry you guys missed out.
Pushing for punishment is petty and whiney.

If the numbers floating around are correct and ppl got 50+ million out of this “oversight”, than it is something that beyond a shadow of a doubt should have been corrected.
It causes severe damage to the game, the economy and more importantly the trust in the ability of the devs to preserve the integrity of the game.

It’s not about punishment. If you think that, you missed the point completely.

Like you are clearly saying that in your previous post

@Leahlemoncakes has made their position clear on the spark issue
 she is not loving it but not going to punish the players who sold spark.

There is a CLEAR difference between selling something at a price that was apparently intended to be lower but slipped into live, than Botting/Scripting or taking advantage of a bug like duplicating something etc out of thin air
 to me that is Worlds apart from one another

I don’t think it was possible to get 50+ million coin from this if you started from zero spark and only attempted to convert and mint.

I posted a video of minting about 650k taking ten minutes so at that rate you’re talking something like 12 hours of STRICTLY MINTING spark that you had already converted before the price was brought to your attention.

Some people are exaggerating probably, and/or discussing things that were done in a group involving more than one player. Not to deny it was theoretically possible (the price was there for 20+ hours) but even those who went out and bought up as much peat/coal/whatever as they could off of stands would have had a very hard time both processing and minting it within this time frame, and in that case the ‘final number’ would also not be pure profit.

This example is already referencing multiple people and at this level it’s likely that they were mostly minting spark that they already had on hand.

You can’t just ignore the hours required to gather and convert hundreds of millions of spark.

For 50million coin at 0.0392 per spark, I think that’s over a billion spark minted but math isn’t my strong suit
 totally agree though that it wasn’t possible starting from scratch.

Yeah minting takes time, I didn’t try with this spark thing but last December I did mint essence worth of over 1M coins and it took from me something like 15 minutes. It is one of those boring things that I don’t see reason to do again.

Guys, the reason the coin generated trough this should be removed is not to punish people but the restore the integrity of the game.

Please don’t get stuck on these terms, it doesn’t matter how you want to call it in end. The result, the damage caused to the game and the damage done to the trust in a consistent sandbox is what should count.
