It's good that you posted though! If there is/were an issue we'd see it blowing up on the forums, and having a log of past incidents (should it come up in the future) is beneficial.

One "not a bug" to be aware of though - if you're buying/selling multiples of the same item (possibly withdrawing coin as well?) by mashing buttons you will lose items/coin as that used to be exploitable but now those "floods" are disregarded/discarded to prevent exploitation.

*Edit* If you are worked up about it though - rest assured all the transactions the server is aware of are logged. Post in the petition forum, and maybe you'll get lucky and a staff member will investigate. However, due to the extent of the "damages" I wouldn't get my hopes up unless we see further questionable bank activity mentioned.
After posting this i figured it must have been a corrupted packet, or possibly an error in the sql database as character data, etc., transitioned on request from the server, since i could not reproduce this problem again.
I closed the game to begin a new login session incase that previous connection was a root cause of the error either with the game or through my isp switching center. this was the first and only time i have seen this happen.
i have no intention of trying to get it back it's small potatos, and i already made that back with interest within half an hour.

thank you for your help and insight [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
