server TRIES to tell client a about client b now having the item but
DDOS fail fail fail
client a never gets told the trade finished, so it never removes the item
voila - DUPE

Rogean - you could look for people just standing around swapping items a lot back and forth at the usual ddos times

that begs the question, why isn't it programmed so the item is registered as removed from the offerer before it's registered as received by the recipient...

Better to have people petition for lost items than the market being flooded with artificial shit imo. You'd also see it getting more attention from the staff so they could alleviate the problem [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
