Hey guys...  Yeah it's true, I found a bug in your gamemode (no cheats whatsoever) that allows people to get a LOT of money in less than 30 seconds of joining the server.  So far I was able to get up to $100,000,000!!  But I'd rather not go into further detail (in public) on how I figured out how to do this, accidentally by the way.

So please PM me on the forums (admins/moderators only), or feel free to email me directly (admins/moderators only), and I'll give you the skinny on what is going on.


Thanks,
uncajesse

And if I may ask .. How the hell did you discover such a method
In our tests we didn't got such an high amount of money, but we could reproduce it.

Well when I first spawned, 1st time into the server ever, I had never seen the interior before that I remember.  So I was checking it out, looking at all the doors, to see if i could press enter/sprint/action key near them to go places, i really had no idea what i was doing.

Then I found the eh...  the one thing in the club.  (i don't want to give this away before you fix it) And i was like, just doing that like 10-15 or so times.  then i did the one command and /play to join everyone else in interior 0. 

And it wasn't until like 2-3 hours later maybe, that I was on the pirate-ship and checking out the commands when I discovered how much money I had.  $20,000,000

The second time it wasn't such a round number, it was $69 million and change.  And the 3rd time it hit $100 million.  It might be related to the number of times you do the one thing.

[edit] oh and...  i'm still banned, but probably just cos the list hasn't been refreshed yet.  no worries.  i really should go eat something.  [/edit]

Unbanned... again
Since 0.2 the ban/unban stuff is a little bit different... thats why
