Obviously fixing the exploits is only a short term solution. The only way to fix things long term is to completely do an overhaul of the game from head to toe. I mean let's face it, this game is in need of one badly. Between the constant bugs and network issues, and the issue of cloned potions and rampant money traders, this game is as close to broken as it can get.

What they need to do is get some real programmers to redevelop an app that's more stable, and with more security features in place to stop people from cloning both the app and cards/items. They should also ditch the device based accounts, and let people simply make online accounts based on email. Also, I'm not a programmer, but they need to fix their servers. Either ditch Google servers or pay them for better ones, because what they have isn't cutting it. Next up, they need to create a marketplace similar to what they have in Rage of Bahamut, and create a new form of currency to trade with other than potions. Restrict trading only to this new currency, and give everyone an initial starting amount based on level to help even things out initially. In this way, you eliminate the problem with cloning entirely, and long term the prospect of simply looking up the cheapest card and buying it instantly keeps prices fair. If they want, they can add in the option to create auctions so sellers have the opportunity to get full value for their cards.

Obviously some of these things have their own issues, but I would think it would be better than what Applibot is already doing.
