I am not a programmer ...so this isnt a programming suggestion. But it occurred to me that one way of damage limitation regarding yesterday's bug abuse would be to close the game temporarily..if people were available at the required times to do so, obviously..if not, can't be helped, I understand.
The idea of the (temporary) closure would be three-fold..
1. deprive the attention-seekers of their ''fun''
2. give a window of time to developers, etc to try to address problems without being under pressure
3. stop damage and limit people's experience etc. gained so a rollback has less impact...and also make people APPRECIATE what may happen if the bugs are abused, maybe...
This isnt intended to be a patronising comment..I do realise it's an obvious thought...but I decided maybe it was worth posting anyway. If it's not helpful, ignore it....
