Welcome to Gaia! :: View User's Journal | Gaia Journals

This is probably going to be a semi-rantish about the rollback and the people who exploited the recent gold glitch.

But I'll make this clear: I understand why the rollback happened. I just don't like them. xd

Most of my rant is directed at the people who decided to use the glitch to their own advantage. In my view, they weren't only being greedy...but also incredibly stupid. It would be kind of hard not to notice that half of Gaia was probably experiencing the same glitch, and they still did it. Hm, now let's think about this, dearies; If you exploit a glitch that is happening to over half the population on Gaia, don't you think that others will do the same? A LOT of others?

And there's just no way in hell the admins aren't going to notice that. You earn all this gold through whatever method or duplicate items, and expect to get away with it. I don't think so. I'm not a rule enforcer around here. I expect people to be civil and follow Gaia rules and the ToS, but in no way am I a moderator or anything. But still...It irked me to think that people could even think about getting away with this.

Even if it had been just a few accounts, they probably would have jacked up the prices so badly the whole of the Gaian economy would explode. And then they'd get they're accounts reset and possibly banned. But it wasn't just a few accounts...it was half of Gaia, and it caused this massive rollback to happen that's, in turn, caused glitch after glitch, with the admins scrambling to get maintenance done and the moderators probably ready to snap with all the repeat questions they've had to answer.

Albert Einstein once said, "Only two things are infinite; the universe, and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former."

*sigh* I'm done.

*waves to Xiane, who posted a comment in her last entry* whee

I really should get to posting my fanfiction...>.>
