I don't think its at NGE levels lol, but its the same style of move.
lamo I remember it so well, forum accounts killed, players removed from outside Cornelia(?) star port by a GM.. (only to be back several minutes later)
That was the most epic way to cul a playerbase ever in mmo history.
But yes they did similfy the crafting then, and whole towns where people had been crafting empty, but again i don't feel its that bad.
@azurus
Or they could find a way to take out the tediousness. id be happy just making parts and selling them on, others want to make that +3 whatever end item.. Some just want to kill mobs and pay/trade others for the work (me really).
Yes to remove the tediousness they need big changes, not a almost 50% removal of the crafted item database.
