Ok, well it's not. Let me explain it to you. Doing a quest where you have to run between 2 zones, delivering an item *hoping* for a random number generator to give you a high number isn't the same as duplicating money.

IIRC, Befallen example: Take 10gold. Put 10gp into bank. It would become 10pp. That's actually way more than duplicating.

Once again, *hundreds* of platinum? If this the case, we're in good shape in terms of exploits guys.
Hundreds of platinum when everyone else had hundreds of copper? Its enough.

AoE Insta click wands able to be be recharged for a tiny amount of money. Exploit. (Well, this is more of a stubborn and arrogant move on some of the Devs part for not fixing this)

Pathing issues that allow you to bug mobs out so they cant get to you... exploit.

An Exploit is anything used by players, to gain unfair advantage not intended by the Designers. Sure they were not on the level of GhostKilling people or Melee Gate or the other MacroQuest exploits, but they were enough of a exploit that gave an unfair advantage to the people who did it.

Just because you think that having 400pp on your level 1 rogue isn't that bad, doesn't mean that its not an exploit. When the bulk of people quit before level 15, those getting gear and making those levels dang near inconsequential is a big deal.

People quit because of the rapid advancement and parity that is already showing 32 DAYS after the server went live. I mean, 32 days after the server goes live and people have killed Naggy 2+ times? Nawt Classic Brah.

So no matter how small you think the benefit was, it is still enough to cause people to quit.

Jesus will reward those who do things the right way. The path of the Righteous is rife with temptation and fear. Jesus will deliver us from the Sins of others.
