If you're not in the know: it seems like an item duplication/generation exploit has been found and things are a little insane rn

Well, the timeline as I know it:

1. someone buys an Imperial hatchling off the AH for cheap
Levi
@shiningkestral
Wed, Jul 1, 2015 6:59 AM
2. said someone gets flooded with messages asking how they got a G1 imperial???
Levi
@shiningkestral
Wed, Jul 1, 2015 6:59 AM
3. person posts on the forums asking how much this hatchling is worth
Levi
@shiningkestral
Wed, Jul 1, 2015 7:00 AM
4. staff notices a rather large influx of "G1 imp hatchlings"
Levi
@shiningkestral
Wed, Jul 1, 2015 7:00 AM
5. someone somewhere posts a screenshot of duped/gen'd Imp scrolls
Levi
@shiningkestral
Wed, Jul 1, 2015 7:01 AM
6. User Wicca is banned for botting
Levi
@shiningkestral
Wed, Jul 1, 2015 7:01 AM
7. Rhea has a post on her tumblr documenting it. She edits it like every ten minutes saying "xx:xx staff have still made no announcement"
Levi
@shiningkestral
Wed, Jul 1, 2015 7:01 AM
8. People go nuts thinking there might be a rollback
Levi
@shiningkestral
Wed, Jul 1, 2015 7:03 AM
No one seems to know how it works apparently someone (Wicca?) got caught because they misspelled something, I think it was an account name they were trying to message and it got sent to the wrong person

someone was trying to send their alt account 26 imp scrolls and missed a letter

@quixocalypse
Wed, Jul 1, 2015 7:16 AM
haha having alt accounts is illegal in its own right
Levi
@shiningkestral
Wed, Jul 1, 2015 7:17 AM
yeah, so exploiting and multiaccounting
Levi
@shiningkestral
Wed, Jul 1, 2015 7:17 AM
what always gets me though is how stupid multiaccounters are, they friend their alts, they give them similar names, they put the "i'm a different person totally!!!" message in their profiles etc
мσяɗяєɗ ρнαηтσм
@calaidi
Wed, Jul 1, 2015 7:18 AM
it looks like the recipient of the imp scrolls has also been banned for multiaccounting, but possibly not in relation to this whole mess too

it's just what got them on the radar

why would people think that they could just use scrolls like that and not get caught
𝖓𝖎𝖉𝖉𝖞👁️𝖙𝖎𝖉𝖉𝖞
@quixocalypse
Wed, Jul 1, 2015 7:22 AM
if they were smart, they would have just made like...one or two scrolls
Levi
@shiningkestral
Wed, Jul 1, 2015 7:22 AM
they got greedy lmao
𝖓𝖎𝖉𝖉𝖞👁️𝖙𝖎𝖉𝖉𝖞
@quixocalypse
Wed, Jul 1, 2015 7:22 AM
and sold them as is
𝖓𝖎𝖉𝖉𝖞👁️𝖙𝖎𝖉𝖉𝖞
@quixocalypse
Wed, Jul 1, 2015 7:22 AM
because having like one scroll is plausible
Levi
@shiningkestral
Wed, Jul 1, 2015 7:22 AM
and like, why would you throw a "g1 imperial hatchling" on the AH you think people aren't gonna notice
Levi
@shiningkestral
Wed, Jul 1, 2015 7:23 AM
there are people who dedicate their time to scouring the AH for G1s
Levi
@shiningkestral
Wed, Jul 1, 2015 7:24 AM
anyway if you're gonna dupe items, don't go for the KS/retired stuff lol
𝖓𝖎𝖉𝖉𝖞👁️𝖙𝖎𝖉𝖉𝖞
@quixocalypse
Wed, Jul 1, 2015 7:25 AM
i dont' get why you would put it on there anyway, for cheap?
𝖓𝖎𝖉𝖉𝖞👁️𝖙𝖎𝖉𝖉𝖞
@quixocalypse
Wed, Jul 1, 2015 7:25 AM
hat is the point in making a gen1 imperial if you sell it for cheap
𝖓𝖎𝖉𝖉𝖞👁️𝖙𝖎𝖉𝖉𝖞
@quixocalypse
Wed, Jul 1, 2015 7:25 AM
imperials don't sell for much on a base level these days

@quixocalypse

but yeah seriously
Levi
@shiningkestral
Wed, Jul 1, 2015 7:26 AM
idk if they were trying to see if they could get away with it
Levi
@shiningkestral
Wed, Jul 1, 2015 7:27 AM
and imo the scroll is worth much more than the dragon itself
𝖓𝖎𝖉𝖉𝖞👁️𝖙𝖎𝖉𝖉𝖞
@quixocalypse
Wed, Jul 1, 2015 7:29 AM
it is

@quixocalypse

objectively
Levi
@shiningkestral
Wed, Jul 1, 2015 7:29 AM
yeah, since it's le kickstarter item and it has the...potential to change a dragon into an imp I guess
Levi
@shiningkestral
Wed, Jul 1, 2015 7:30 AM
though lmao who would even use an imp scroll on anything, someone who's that desperate for a g1 imp???
𝖓𝖎𝖉𝖉𝖞👁️𝖙𝖎𝖉𝖉𝖞

some people are really desperate for G1s

@shiningkestral
Wed, Jul 1, 2015 7:31 AM
yeah the types of dragons people collect is pretty incredible
Levi
@shiningkestral
Wed, Jul 1, 2015 7:32 AM
Though I guess that's what happens when dragons are worthless, people need to come up with ways to make them valuable
Levi
@shiningkestral
Wed, Jul 1, 2015 7:33 AM
g1, ID number, bred vs unbred, etc
𝖓𝖎𝖉𝖉𝖞👁️𝖙𝖎𝖉𝖉𝖞
@quixocalypse
Wed, Jul 1, 2015 7:33 AM
the ID number is the most hilarious thing to me

I joined in June 2013, so I actually have a ton of 5 digits that I'm sure will be worth a lot if I tried to sell them

one of them is a one off xyx g1 I could probably get big bucks from her but no she's mine forever

lol at rhea & co thinking that an announcement would be appropriate. there's a reason you're not allowed to talk public ally about exploits.
