After server wars tonight the following changes will be active:

Faction items cannot be used in duels or tournaments.
Faction item and arch protection effects will be nullified before duels or tournaments.
No matter what the ruleset, recall cannot be used in duels or tournaments.
Murderers using spells with an area of effect will hit all targets in the area (this includes blade spirits, fields, explosion potions, earthquake, meteor swarm, etc) regardless of guild or party affiliation. Players with less than 5 kills are not affected by this change; their guild mates and party members will not be affected by their area of effect spells.
Explosion potions will not do damage to innocent or non-combative players inside guarded areas no matter who threw the potion.
Justice virtue protection offers can no longer be spammed. A player can only have one pending offer at a time.

Tonight at approximately 10:00 PM EST (GMT-5) (that's right now) we will be shutting down Hybrid and moving it to a new network. This move will only take approximately 15 - 20 minutes. We will update you as soon as it is completed!

Effective after server wars tonight:

Runic sewing kits will now give a durability bonus to tailor created armor (if crafted with the appropriate resource and tool).
Razor can no longer interact with House placement gumps. You can still click the buttons manually.
Razor can no longer interact with BOD accept gumps. Like above, you can still click the buttons manually.

You can no longer cast gate travel to or from public moongates.
Plant system updated.
BOD system updated.
Account system updated.
Few miscellaneous fixes.
Several items are securable now (board games, etc).
Command system updated.

Many of these changes are internal changes that do not affect gameplay. Account and command systems were optimized for speed and efficiency. The BOD update is primarily code cleanup, but fixes a few inconsistencies with BOD creation and rewards. The plant system adds a few new features, but some haven't been made available yet (bonsai seeds for example).

The crash issue on Sunday was caused by an issue with the BOD system giving out blank BODs. This has been fixed.

This evening we will be applying a small patch:

Added support for packet throttling of latest clients (prevents speedhack and account bruteforce attacks)
Fixed warning gumps to show the cancel option correctly
Fixed spellbooks to display properly for the latest clients

Thank you for your patience during the update.
