    Sure, lets just not acknowledge my later comment.

    Well, to be fair... the GMs don't really decide when we get the future content as that's mainly up to KR to decide when we get new patch and whatnot. I'm sure it is the same for most events too... so...

    And yes, people will continue to find another way to abuse stuffs even if they got in trouble or anything but you wouldn't want your main to be banned for doing those kind of things, would you?

    This leads to the question that I never got a confirmed answer to; is this setup acceptable?

    Nexon used to have a wall of shame to deter and discourage bots and exploiters. They were also given temp bans from a day up to a month. I wonder what happened to it...

    They did this in MapleStory, but I don't think they ever did that in Mabi?

    A family friendly game ip wise -> people get an amount of pcs worth of the whole family. But
    it's like free refills, people designing the events consider it of course. You think those fruits and direct dyes are way too much? But it's summer, it's ok for the marketing to be little more aggressive. Exploitable rewards in one hand, annoying wing button in another (and at least this year it's movable and doesn't block keywords >:) so the feedback/complaints went through too).

    What's so different with bots spamming Conflict to make more gold faster than anyone else, compare to these people making tons of gold by using excessive counts of alt from event? You do need to care about this problem because they will be the one who control the market price who has tons of gold (Let's say you offered 20m on the item, but these people offer like 50m+ and won't stop till they obtain it; congratz, now ppl will think that's the market price on that item). If you don't care, then stop complaining about market price. You brought this consequence so you deserve the pain.

    Otherwise, Nexon needs to start looking over these 4~6+ PC connection from one.

    I mean less AFK events would probably solve this.

    Some people live together and therefore have more than one pc/laptops. Some have more than one(I have 8) cuz they throw LAN parties and have friends/relatives come over to game/use em occasionally. It's a slippery slope tbh.

    I mean if they started tracking where gold and items were going with these sorts of situations they'd weed out 99% of the players who are actually living together. But that sort of investigation takes quite a bit of manually checking, I would imagine.
