What I fund odd is that dev said \"We know who are cheating !\" but after they said that it\'s possible that the crystals won\'t be transfered because of the cheating... but there is a problem : if they know who has cheated why would be no crystal transfert ?

Maybe because some people fund cheated crystals without knowing that. For example : Me, a friend shows me a way to reach the lost room in the dungeon. So sometimes I were there (do you remember our great discussion there about cheating Zetsumei ? ;-)) and camp there (it was very boring) because of the lot of crystals that spawned there...

I apologize but didn\'t know and in fact I still don\'t know if this was because of the cheating... I just suppose that.

So dev ? Am I right ? Is that the reason of your doubt ?

No, people made hacks for the game, and then used them to get lots of crystals. For example, there\'s one which allows you to pickup every crystal within a certain range with the press of one button. So people became very rich, very fast, and then they dropped large amounts of these everywhere, so they got spread around, or they transferred to other accounts. So if there is a transfer, there\'ll be lots of people who\'ll start with enough money to buy the best of everything straight off, and have cash left over, which\'ll cause big infaltion, screwing up the economy.... etc. :D

Maybe not :P

In SWG, some guys managed to pull off a similar stunt on quite a few servers, and screwed up the economy for the whole game :) Massive inflation everywhere.

Yeah, ps isn\'t at this stage yet, but still, not worth the risk :)
