    Just as long as they get taken care of as soon as possible especially if they are larger exploits. Those of us who enjoy testing out the game and checking into stuff know that there are others who will find it out and start to use these exploits in pubs and matches. Which we really don't want. =]

    My PM box is no longer full. We're fixing this exploit and other stuff right now.

    afaik you never reply to twitter (you never use mentions as a reply to anything in your timeline, and the last mention was eight july). but you are saying that you actually do read your own mentions so that we can report stuff there? I think I might use that if I discover stuff then ;)

    it's the one that allows you to do something that the game doesn't intend.

    (sorry, someone had to say it, might as well be someone who doesn't care about it. I will shut up now.)

    I agree with Charlie. (btw, you can post privately on getsatisfaction). I tried to be very careful in my thread about the fix, but I at least needed to explain <i>what</i> it's going to fix though (didn't tell how).

    I posted one because exploit has already spread to several servers. I would understand doing so if exploit was something arcane that doesn't leave every player on the server knowing how to reproduce it. Moreover that exploit got fixed by players after someone posted it in second topic. Owners of not updated servers didn't lose anything.

    Better still, set-up a cheats/exploits web address @ unknownworlds.com.

    It's definitely better to ask people to send PMs or direct emails for exploits. If you have decent testers or proskills community members you can generally get to the bottom of things before they become public knowledge.
