Yup the ones in BBM. On the Allakhazam posting for them it pretty much lists when they were nerfed by reading the feedback and seeing when people complained about it being nerfed. Want to say it was 02/03.

My char is only 16 atm and with the really high prices of things i'm looking for ways to make plat. Bone Chips and Silk (when you can find a buyer) can only get you so far. LOL
The best way to make plat is to level. Unless you're a warrior, you can get by pretty well on cheap or no gear. Even if you're a warrior, you can get some useful stuff in the kind of price range you can get from farming bone chips (e.g. PGT for ~100pp). The gear in EC isn't terribly expensive when you're level 50 or 60 and have the capability to make a lot of plat in a short amount of time; it's just daunting when you're a lowbie. But when you're a lowbie, there's no real need for all that expensive stuff.

When you get a little higher level, any monster that drops research components is nice for a little plat, as they will sell from 5g to several plat and weigh next to nothing. Aviaks in South Karana are a good relatively low level place for this. Mammoths in Everfrost around level 25 will often drop tusks that sell for 10pp each, but weigh 10 pounds. If you level in dungeons with a group, you'll also get access to some drops that will sell for 50-100pp or so at low levels, which can be nice. Dungeon mobs also tend to drop research components, ringmail, and bronze, all of which will sell nicely.
