So it’s kind of both
you see the exploiter “sends” the trade, but they’re the ones that receive it, so they just have to accept the trade that they “sent”
whenever you trade someone in game, it runs the function sendTrade(user sending,user receiving,user sending’s items,user receving’s items) idk i dont look into the games code
when the function is run it notifices the user receiving of the trade. Now if someone were gonna steal my stuff with an exploit, they would do: sendTrade(ThatEndy,goofball,1 Powerful Scroll, blank). what this function will do is pretty much “mind control” my character into sending the powerful scroll to the exploiter where i get nothing in return
then the exploiter (user receiving) will get the trade and hit accept
yea i think this also works
holy shit idk how vetex doesn’t even bother to check the item’s owners or the recipient
probably because most people don’t assume that exploiters will abuse their systems
they cant pretend to be the recipient, the way it works is they send a trade with more than 8 items and the trade window only shows 8 so the person accepts it thinking nothing of it, its already fixed in new servers
also it shouldnt be surprising that there are vulnerabilities considering the game has 200k+ lines of code, its not exactly a simple to just go in and fix something with so little information. But I do think this whole thing is extremely overblown, there is at most like 5 different exploiters doing this stuff but the way the announcements and fearmongering is makes it sound like you join the game and your inventory is just instantly gone, its ridiculous

this isnt how it works at all, exploiters cannot send trades on your client’s behalf

this clears up alot, thanks.
spit your shit fam 
yeh
first of all hi vetex
second thanks for clarification
third its understandable that the code is insecure like its in fricking early access and byfron just got bypassed and theres thousands of code
Vetex, will there be rollbacks for inventory for people affected by this exploit or will their items just be deleted along with the exploiter?
While on that note, what will happen to the players affected by the renown exploits? I know that a mass renown reset will happen, but will other stats be fixed on an individual basis or be mass changed on a patch wide scale?
tl;dr: dont complain about peoples scripting unless u can make a 200k line game that prevents any possible exploit that ever existed or will exist

While on that note, is there anyway to fix the age stat?
I have something similar to this:
Happened on my slot so I have 3918 age now. The moderator I’ve talked to said they wouldn’t be able to fix this.
hey don’t feel too bad, you can say your character was a witness to the war between gods and man now lol.
Alive and stuck at 125… What a somewhat sad existence…
also being 3919 bypass the war of the gods by like 1000 years, thats a long time to be alive
