That will do nothing as Dallane and Darwoth are playing together in game.
My only question for the dev's is why is Riolic allowed to keep the silver from the eyes? I don't think he deserves to be killed but it doesn't seem fair that he gets to keep the money.
Ingame trades are not something I want to dirty my hands in, and as soon as I am forced to, you can bet that I will personally start creating "mimic items" through the forgery skill that appear to be certain rare items but then, upon their usage, reveal their true nature as garbage. Once again, and for emphasis, the player knew a bug was happening and still gambled a large fortune purchasing them from an enemy faction for a fraction of what they were actually worth. The dev team does not insure ingame transactions between players, nor the items involved. This situation would be the same if, for example, someone traded arcane amethysts today and tomorrow we changed the iron wall ingredients. The fact that this was due to a, to the player, obvious bug was, unlike that last example, a giant flashing warning sign that was ignored in their haste to scoop up as many as they could.
Edit: To be clear, riolic definitely seized a very shady opportunity here and, if I didn't care about setting a horrifying precedent, I'd gleefully relieve him of his funds and then some for NOT being one of the players to report the bug. But that's a level of interference, digging, finding out who knew about what among the KKK, when they found out, and by the time I get to that point, I know I'll have to sift through ankle deep ***** of half-truths as they nimbly dodge wrongdoings, etc etc etc that I do not want to do. There is still 250k in the economy, just in another corner of the world. The item in question was evaporated before serious harm could be done. Some people made out ahead. Some people have been punished. That silver still exists out there. Go get it back.
