Stores"

After playing through all three NPC characters (Russell, Jinx, CardBot) or when you cash out, tickets are not awarded though you spent the tokens to play. No resolution has been found at this time.

Admins and developers have been alerted to the problem. Please be patient.

The option to buy a Vending Pass is finnicky and can be accessed manually here if you already have a Trading Pass.

Profiles, Inventory, Marketplace DOWN March 28

There appears to be a glitch occurring with inventories, profiles, etc right now. Please try to avoid making new threads, as it's a known issue and it's happening to everyone. We will try to keep you updated about this issue.

  There appears to be a glitch occurring with inventories, profiles, etc right now. Please try to avoid making new threads, as it's a known issue and it's happening to everyone. We will try to keep you updated about this issue.
  -- Update:
  Gold Gain and Stores are also turned off at this time. The issue is being worked on as we speak.

There are some technical difficulties with a few servers that hold inventory and profile information. Because of this, the Economy is disabled. There will be no gold gain, no one is able to buy or sell things from the store, use the bank, market place or use their profiles at this time as they are all related to the same problem.

We are looking in to this and will have everything fixed as soon as possible.

Thank you for your patience and understanding 3nodding

Most everything is fully back to normal from all the problems this morning. 3nodding
