Which is really unbelievable after all that already happened in the game since the release. Maybe they'll have to begin thinking a little more about the consequences of their decisions because they don't expect what happens pretty often (some examples are selling runs, the reaction over the hunts, etc...). And in most cases, a little experience with MMO is all that's needed to predict how the players will react.

Sure, people can make mistakes, but when they repeat very similar ones, maybe it's time to try to learn from them.
