The Current Exploit “Going Around” | 01.07.2015, 07:28 PM

Hey folks, Normally when an exploit exists, it is our policy to remain quiet until the didn’t previously know about it and can unintentionally make the issue more widespread. Without being specific, there is an exploit which has been present for a couple of weeks, that unfortunately has become more widespread than we typically see. It is being openly discussed in-game as well as other channels. We have been receiving quite a few questions about it and due to the wide nature which it is being discussed, we thought it best to address it.

First, we are definitely aware of the issue! It is our plan to have a fix in place for it exploit can lead to action being taken against your up to and including permanent suspension.

If you believe you have discovered an exploit, or you hear of an exploit taking place, this is the best course of action to take:

  • Do not “test” the exploit yourself. Even a single occurrence of using an exploit can lead to action being taken against your .
  • Report the exploit immediately and privately. First, use the /bug command member of our community team via a private message, here on the forums. Rest assured, even if we do not respond, we read all of our messages and will escalate exploits accordingly.
  • Do not explaining any aspect of the exploit.

In summary, we are aware of the next Tuesday, January 13, 2015.
Thank you for your understanding.
