I don't understand that. What is /qing? How does a player NOT get saved when they "log out"? How do other mmorpgs prevent this from happening? Is this how people, in general, dupe?

You said they removed coins from dropping, but players could still drop items. So what stops a player from dropping an item, and /qing out before the gave saved them and logging back in with two duplicates of the item? That's the same exact behavior, just not with coins. Are players doing that now, as we speak?
