From the Camelot Herald:
Server Downtime
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The servers will be coming down in 15 minutes to address the RP bonus bug that was inadvertently introduced with Wednesday’s Live version.
While active, the bug allowed hundreds of players to accumulate hundreds of thousands of RPs in the span of a few hours. An experienced player will know that acquiring that many RPs is something that takes weeks or possibly months to accomplish. Unfortunately, in order for us to fully remedy the situation, we are required to perform a character rollback for the day, and any progress made during the day will be lost. We investigated every possible alternative before coming to that conclusion, and deeply apologize for this setback. We value your patronage greatly, and we will do our best to make this up to you in the coming days.
The estimated time of return is 7:00 A.M. EDT.
It was a mad evening on the Devon Cluster, and I first noticed something was up when some of us middies came across some Albs and I Dot'ted a couple of them. My RP was 300RPs and 1200RPs for fighting near to a tower ^^
I rezzed someone, 2000+ RP
I healed people, 20RP+360RP for fighting near a tower PER HEAL.
I got my shammy over 100,000 RP in about 2 hours of RvR
We kind of all guessed/expected that there would be some kind of Server rollback, especially when one of the Albs (Fatbloat?) who was already RR12 and had the nastiest AE DOT dinged 2 MILLION RP midway through the evening and probably more as I had to log off as it was getting late
I hope they only rollback RP gains, I have a few characters that gained some xp, and it is a pain to have to redo that.
It was a fun evening anyway, and it's a shame they can't just give us all say 75,000 RP as a goodwill gesture
Come to Devon! :>
