Firstly, on behalf of the staff members, I would like to apologize for the bugs, especially the Thomas/dice event bug. Upon investigation, it is found that quite a number of players exploited the dice event bug by duplicating items, some nearly a 1000x duplications, some using multiple accounts to do the duplication. GM has banned accounts who have duplicated at least 100x; those with lesser number, we gave the benefit of doubts and did not ban (although, if argument arose here, it is still possible for them to be banned).
Most of the items duplicated have been removed from the banned accounts. These banned accounts will be released in 3 days' time. Even though some players claimed they didn't know it was a bug, and we do take responsibility for unknowingly releasing a bugged event, still, the rule is quite clear:
Rule No. GR/03
Exploiting bugs that result in the gain of large quantities of Galder or Items or having Overpowered Equipments, or disrupting the server will result in a IP ban/account ban.
Secondly, the "etc" issue (where some "use" items are moved to "etc" space, rendering them unusable) will be fixed soon. We will compile the list of items that are bugged for this issue and fix them after that. This is caused by merging items from cTO into our server.
Lastly, we greatly appreciate all support from players, especially those who try to help with information. Please post any other issue you may encounter in this thread (don't whisper in game; we need proper records if we were to take action; and it's easier to link items from forum but not from chat in game).
Thank you.
