Pretty much you knew this was going to come no matter which way it was handled. I shouldn't be surprised that more crybaby's came out after it was nerfed. I personally would rather it not have been nerfed, but really don't want to listen to the crying. I'd suggest some due diligence and balance both sides for now, then come up with a fail-proof plan for redeployment. That thread TZ posted about gaming economy was brilliant, and should be considered.
That or remove it from the game all together. We were fine before this, and we will be fine after it's gone if it will shut people up.
