TomT put a lot of thought into that statement. A very professional and well-worded summary of the issue. Thank you.

My in game friends tell me that 300/50 crafted swords still hit with a significant amount of damage. Possibly comparable to a silverweave. Considering that it takes a whole mess of ore - like a *lot*- and three to four hours to craft one of the unreasonably-high quality weapons in the first place, my only problem is with calling people who used the features in the system to make them... cheaters.
Three of the best players in the game I know are now *cheaters*. One of them was rather disturbed by this appelation, to say the least. Any crafter in the game has spent a lot of time working with the system - time they can never get back - and it would be more professional to leave name calling out of the process of informing the players of such changes.
And this fix that is mentioned that is coming in a couple of days... is that going to be some kind of "quick" fix to the system or is the problem going to be addressed properly within the crafting system code?

Is this going to be a banning offense? Now we have people in game running around getting hysterical because they think they might be banned even though Tarel did not say this. I think announcements like this should be indicated publicly first rather than in game, because it creates a lot of confusion.
A friend of mine gave me a sword last night that he had spent 3 hours making not including the mining and the metallurgy work, it was the fufillment of a promise he made a long time ago. He was very happy about being able to do that. And now this kid gets to be labeled a cheater because people throw this word around like nothing. He didnt cheat. He used the system.
People have put a lot of time into crafting these, and it is not like you can repair them back up to the original quality...
