Brightness issues

Been playing for about a month, and about 3 days ago I logged on to find everything was much darker than normal. Tried changing all the video settings that are available, but nothing changes.

Anyone ever experienced this before? Or can think of a way to fix it?

Isn't this a witchcraft feature?
There was a Bloodmoon a few days ago, and the darkness remained after it. One or two weeks ago there was also a short period of darkness, though without Bloodmoon.

So is it dark for everyone? or just me? Or an error that occurred after the blood moon the other day?

Or have I been cursed or something? There are no unusual status effects on me right now that I can see.

edit: and regardless of what it is ... how do I fix it? >_<

I like the new lighting settings, looks much more atmospheric.

Sorry for being unclear. It's dark for me, and probably for the other players too. And this thing happened in the past too.

There doesn't seem to be any drawback to this darkness, no increased bile drain, no permadeath (got KO-ed yesterday), crops doesn't seem to grow slower either.

Dev's usually don't test things on the main server. There might be a event soon, maybe for a certain evil group.

It was also dark instead of the usual reddish colour on the last bloodmoon,
I wonder why no one complained the did not realize it's a BM because of that and died. :D

Sometimes the devs just forget to put the light on again, sometimes it's something witchy going on, you never know...

There was a half day long darkness a few days ago, when some guys hoarded out a few hundred skeletons from the crypt. I don't think this is anything accidental.

The devs put the skeletons inside the houses so people couldn't reach them, I saw some dead guys name inside post office.
