Core is raiding villages using a bug

[piopepik]

Well this is Alpha people can do whatever they want, getting away unpunished by our two favourite gods jorbtar and loftorb depends only if their milk was stale this morning or not.

The events of today will have a direct impact on mine and my village's future spending on this game. I can't say I'm not surprised.

Yeah, important precedent incoming, hope jorb and loftar think hard about how they want to go about this.

Do they keep logs of things like this? Because otherwise i don't see them doing anything about it really.

[piopepik]

They probably won't coz jorbtar. And yep angry guy here... be polite say hi.

[bmjclark]

I suspect there's some kind of way to use some odd positioning to use a slave key to get inside the gate, but i've tried it and i couldn't reproduce it. Hopefully the people who did it at least had the decency to report the bug first but i wouldn't hold my breath.

Rolling back the server for everyone seems like a bad idea even though I can understand how people are pissed.

Proper punishment for people abusing such bugs is in order now though that people actually pay for the game- Can't just let them off with a slap on the wrist anymore.

Indeed and it's the right choice to punish them. Hopefully that's what will happen once Jorb are seeing this and did someone contact him to read this topic once he comes online? Also not sure if a roll back will happen myself but we will see.

Before taking any actions jorbtar will spend time investigating what's going on. I'm curious if players who were hit by bug exploitation will be compensated in any way. It's devastating to lose everything to exploits which you literally had no mechanical way to prepare for.

Maybe next mapgen we could see if the Devs could implement a way to rollback a grid or something, rather then the entire map. Seeing its alpha, nuke the base(s) of the perpetrators and delete their chars. (imo)

I suppose 1 free month would be a good thing to give for everything they lost from the gate bug.
