Nice work however. Yet I would still be surprised if Dusith got his gold back, sadly.

Lesson learned, don't trust addons blindly. Next time the infectious code may not be as easy to find.


True, things like this are especially why addon-packs can be so dangerous. Too many things to check and easily abused.

At the very least, no matter how well hidden it is in an addon, the GMs still clearly see all logs.

I'm sorry to hear that, Dusith. I was hoping the staff would restore your gold. Well, at the very least it was nice to see the community come together and help you figure out what happened.

I'm not sure why he would. He installed the addon. No one forced him to do that.

Ho man I wish I didnt miss this, that's some epic detective work guys.


That addon threw up some red flag when it was first posted, just the way he worded things and posted the changelog. Almost "too nice." Never trust an addon that isn't on github. (Github shows file change history)



That loadstring function is super dangerous, I'm surprised it's not blocked in the wow api.

Just use Aux, best auction addon. No more sifting through pages of shit that has low bid amount just to appear first on the list, and an easy view of price per unit.
