AB has just been shut down due to some kind of error - any details on what it is / ETA on it coming back up please? Nothing on your twitter feed or the forums... Thanks!
ooooh no, plz dont fix the lag. its awesome! I can trade 500k to someone, then zone with trade window open. once i have zoned, we both have the 500k! Gonna try with kronos when server is back up again
AB back up now - thanks for all the communication Full disclosure - I helped design and implement 24/7 support for a large global corporation. I do know that it is fully possible to support a large web-enabled system with tens of throusands of global users 24/7 with small support teams and limited budgets. So if I appear overly judgemental, I do have some background that informs my view.
The difference between plat and kronos(I think) is that each krono has an ID-number, making it trivial for the server to detect duplicates, So I really doubt it would work for kronos. It almost sounds plausibel it would work for plat transactions though(if DBG were sloppy when they coded the trade window). A variant of that worked in WoW(with extreme luck, I could not replicate it)... Internal lagspikes in the server infrastructure, is probably a requirement for that exploit to be possible... I would advise against trying to exploit though, it will most likely end in a permanent ban...
