Wow, you just don’t get it. This bug had been reported for a while, i.e., weeks. And no action was taken. But once we staged a mbumive exploit demonstration, it was fixed within 12 hours. It obviously didn’t take that long (comparatively speaking) and it affects so many players that I can’t imagine any bug (other than a critical failure related one) being more important.
And considering ET looked closely at my account while I was actively using the exploit, it means that it could have gone on for a very, very long time if someone chose to be subtle & sneaky. We decided to make a demonstration, and we immediately contacted ET to tell him what was going on and how we were doing it.
Instead of drawing out the exploit ourselves, or allowing others to do so, we staged a huge demonstration. And it got the attention it needed. The first step was to see how easily an Admin could see what was going on just by looking. If ET saw what I was doing, he didn’t say a word.
It was important to determine if Admin could even tell when the exploit was being used first to gauge the severity of the issue. That’s a vastly different situation from the IDC thing. Acid Flux edited this message on 04/03/2008 12:05PM |
