Rich Get Richer Poor Get Poorer

Plural, you say you took action, but these bugs were badly abused after they found out about it, normally rules should be followed that bug abusers get banned or wiped of the money they made, You mention how they're our "modest active players" well quite frankly, iv'e played non stop the past 1-2 weeks and i have not seen the players who abused it on as much of the likes of the other players. (not that it should even change the way you make a decision). How can you even dare put "jealousy" into consideration when i have my fair share of money? The fact is, if they abused and got to keep their money (no matter how big or small) then why don't i get to have the same, or all the other regular active players that play this game? How is that fair, giving those few players more wealth only allows them to get higher levels faster then anyone else because you've gave them greater wealth over everyone else, how is that also fair?
Also the over value price of an item is called a bug because its not what the normal game should produce, with people abusing this you get bug abusers.
And btw plural, tim spent 1.5m on magic, then used the bug to get his 1.5m back, even though he so proudly says he has 5m+ bank, he wants even more because he can't back himself up and you seem to think thats fair?
You say you feel bad for punishing people maarten, but sometimes you need to clear banks or whatever you decide, to keep the game pure and prevent future cheating, otherwise whats stopping people from duping or exploiting other glitches seeing as there will be no ban or wipe to them. If you don't like taking action on them then possibly recruit staff who would easily do it for you, for the better of the server.

Also Micah, the idea around the poor getting poorer is that the players that gained wealth can overprice any other player into buying resourcs to get higher stats in skills such as crafting smithing magic etc etc, these skills allow the rich to gain even more money, whilest the poorer people would remain low stats, and when time comes that they need the resources to get the high levels it will be harder for them to gain and therefore getting less skills higher and staying a lot more poorer then everyone else. (But all this was the not main part of the topic anyways)
