    We don't want a lot at this point already: apologies for the mess at traders swap, maybe some kind of compensation to affected GMs and removal of gold refunded by accident from the game.

    Much of that gold has been spent by people already....

    As the exact amount of gold is known, guild banks could be amended to negative values if needed.

    Are you sure the exact amount of gold is known?
    I wouldn't be surprised if the system said "guild X got refunded 1 million" three times but the money got into their bank only two times, or the system saying "guild X got refunded 1 million" three times while they actually got their money back four times.
    They also disabled some parts of the guild history. Now, hopefully that was only the publicly available part, but really, who knows at this point. Including possible issues with the guild history reporting fake transactions.
    Not that that is necessarily the case, but I'm not sure it's as easy as it seems.

    Given this was their screwup I highly doubt they will do that, they have relationships with at least some of these gms, don't they?

    The PC-EU economy is going to have to eat that currency bomb, plain and simple.

    If those GM's just took that gold and ran with it, how good could those relationships be?

    This also hurts customers - I've seen trader with 0/0 items on prime spot!

    Then that will be something that the PC-EU trading community will be likely to remember. Plain and simple.

    I think at this point we know that all bidding guilds got a lot of money xD
    Knowing is not the same as saying...
    But thanks ;)

    I definitely want a compensation and the removal of the refunded gold. Not saying that this will happen, ZOS slept for 1.5 days now, no way they're going to do a rollback.. but there's no way the economy will do fine with this amount of gold going around. I put a lot of gold and work in the last bid, my members did their best aswell and now we don't have a trader at all, this really harms my guild.

    True, I know that at least one person who claimed that he got a lot of gold tried to launder it. I bet a lot of GMs tried to spend it ASAP, there were almost no platings, wax, alloy, rosin, dust etc left on sunday night.

    I will remember it and ZOS needs to do something NOW to keep other GMs and me here. So many GMs are thinking about quitting the game. Keeping it like this and just acting like this bs never happened is no solution, do something now ZOS and finally learn how to properly communicate with us about ongoing issues like this one, please!

    Still no update.. they can't be serious. They could at least tell us that they still need more time or that they plan to keep it like this or whatever, pretty disappointed and also angry at this point. Who needs communication if you can also act like it never happened and EU players can just cope with it..
