Hm, I was thinking something non-mammalian... But there's already a damn race of fish... b:surrender

A platypus tank would be kinda cool though. Not sure how you'd do that as an upright stance, wearing armor, though. Get your physics dudes on it, STAT! b:chuckle

C'mon in everyone!b:pleased

So this is how PWE rewards the non frost glitchers. A ****ty *** sale and not 1 permanent ban for those that abused. Once again I am not surprised.

Wait... There's a sale? You coulda fooled me...

Monkfish! xD

Hey all,


As you many of you know, there was a major glitch last year that allowed players to level up much more quickly than was normally possible. It involved performing certain abilities on one of the Frostcovered City bosses, which caused it to spawn hundreds of minibosses instead of just two, which was the normal amount spawned.

Although it was immediately deemed a bannable offense, as it violated term 11(k) of our Terms of Service, many players continued to exploit this glitch throughout the four months that it existed on our servers.

Today, the very worst offenders of this glitch exploitation have been given a temporary ban on their characters. They have also been removed from the PWI Rankings Page. While the case has been made that more people should have been banned, and permanently, for their transgressions, the fact is that we at PWE must take some of the blame for the glitch existing for as long as it did (4 months). For this reason we will not be banning anyone permanently for taking part in the exploitation.

We apologize for the glitch lasting as long as it did, and for the amount of time it took to take action against those who took advantage of it. The state of PWI is very important to us, and we thank you for your patience and support as we do what we can to keep the game running as smoothly as possible.


-The PWI Team



[Update 4-18-2012]


Upon receiving tickets from many of the banned accounts and investigating further, our GM's have decided that our tracking methods for recognizing the "worst offenders" were likely inaccurate. Whether these banned folks truly glitched more than anybody else is a statement that we do not feel comfortable supporting any longer, so we've decided to err on the side of caution and release all of these characters from their temp bans.

The truth of the matter is that our tracking tools for recognizing glitchers have been limited from the start, and this problem, compounded with the fact that it took four months to modify the FC boss, meant that we could not effectively enforce the rule in this situation.

To the players who refused to exploit the glitch, we're sorry that we cannot deliver the justice that you were waiting for, but we can promise that we will work to improve all facets of community, engineering, and customer service to ensure that something like this doesn't happen again.

And as for tonight's maintenance question:


Right now we've got Tiger, Lion, Wolf, and Panda -- If it were up to you, what would the next animal-form for Barbarians be?

Forget another form of Barb allow Barbs more customization.

Allow them to color their fur like other toons color their skin.

Change Tiger form, Tigers turn in to Tigers ok, Lions should turn into Lions and Wolves into Wolves and Panda's into Panda's not everything into Tigers.

The maintance question should of been:

"What pisses you off more, 50 gold 10 Star orbs, or 3 Gold Plat Charms? DOESN'T MATTER BOTH ARE ON SALE THIS WEEK"
