Guild Wars 2

My first post to the forums.

I just had to express my significant dissatisfaction with the Vault Transport “fix” that happened today. ANet has removed a guild functionality from every small and medium sized guild on all servers.

Those of us that used the vault transport for legitimate reasons are being punished because ANet was too lazy to actually fix an exploit. They simply made the exploit colossally more difficult to acquire. And ruined the functionality of every small and medium guild on all servers.

Terrible, thoughtless, shoddy.

First of all they didn’t stop an exploit. Whatever the exploit concerning G Banks is, it still exists in the same form. All they did was make it unprofitable/take too much time by GREATLY INCREASING the cost of the transport. With the addition of Merits it means the people involved would have to rank up their guild enough to do bounties AND succeed.

To surmise
Did anet fix an exploit?
No.
Did anet cover up poor coding with a brute force guild mechanic change?
Yes.
Will exploiters still exploit?
Yes.
Do non-exploiters suffer?
Yes.

Because the two other threads talking about this weren’t good enough to post in.

As already stated in those other threads, exploits need fast fixes. Other fixes take time and most companies, Anet included apparently, will take the fast and dirty way to fix an exploit, particularly one that might damage the economy. That it was done on a Saturday evening, at least to me, suggests that it was a pretty bad exploit.

You either need to learn what sarcasm is, or learn that any theory with negative proofs is not a theory. For example Irish Spring smells good, I know a girl that smells good, therefore she must use Irish Spring. Burdens of proof also lie on the person making any claim, not on someone else to disprove.

If you make any claim, you need proof to back it up, just saying there is a causal relationship between two things does not make it so.

I deleted it because I respect Vayne, you…not so much. You keep doing the same thing over and over and over. Read over that little picture and see if you can spot where you are going wrong. Here’s a hint, you are making a conclusion before presenting any evidence.
