Bone Exploit / Illegal Activities

Thank you all for your patience during this issue! We are deeply grateful for the members who recognized something was wrong and brought it to our attention.

This bug is a rare one, but please everybody pay attention! If you have a dog that was sold at auction, but you've somehow been paid Bones for the dog instead of Ala $, please do the honest thing and report the glitch to the issue hub. We're not yet sure what causes this glitch to happen, but rest assured that our coders are looking into the problem!

For those of you who got messages about items from your user shops, please understand that you are NOT in ANY trouble! Isn't it a total drag when players exploit a glitch in the system and drag others into it through no fault of their own?

In the interest of preserving the game's economy, we had to move quickly to return items purchased from user's shops and revoke the Bones spent on those items. We are deeply sorry to all of you who got caught up in this! There's just sometimes nothing we can do to prevent this kind of cheating when players do not come forward.

If you got multiple messages about this exploit and the return of items/Bones, please do not fret. What this means is that the cheater purchased multiple or different items from your shop and we had to treat each purchase as a separate transaction.

If you check your logs and you have not gotten the item which had been purchased back (these will be found in your inventory, NOT your shop), please do not hesitate to report the matter to the issue hub! We will work quickly to return everything lost.

Once again, THANK YOU, members of Alacrity! We know only this wonderful and honest community will report suspicious Bone/Transfer activity. If you think you have seen any more of this, please don't hesitate to contact us! We want to keep this game as fair for everybody has possible <3

With much love,
The Alacrity Staff

Illegal Activities

ATTENTION: Please know that someone has abused a glitch in the game, and has been recklessly spending over 7000 bones they got from this glitch.

Since they have purchased items from other user shops and created dogs and sold dogs, this will be an EXTENSIVE correction to the balance of the Alacrity Economy. Please know that if you have had an item purchased from your shop by this player you may have the item returned and the bones taken back, if it is deemed necessary.

I am sorry for this activity by one person that may spoil things for other's. This is not something that can be allowed to happen or continue.

Any suspicious bone activity be should immediately be reported to the issue hub.

If you have questions please feel free to message me directly at #9.
