Site Update

Auctions are back up!

Admin auctions are in perfect condition, so to celebrate, we'll probably be throwing some fun things in there this weekend and beyond! (I'll make an announcement when I do so that you don't miss it/forget.)

Item auctions are in good condition. Some information for item auctions had been lost, but Yasu was able to reconstruct the tables and work with the data in our January backup. There's a little under 20 individual item auctions that still have some issues, so Yasu will be tending to those asap.

Pet auctions have a couple of issues. Like the item auctions, the pet auctions suffered an information loss, but some data was permanently lost from the downtime restore--specifically, our pet bid table. As a result, pets were returned to original owners but we cannot issue refunds for associated bids because we literally lost that record and Yasu cannot reconstruct it. :c I do apologize.
Moving forward, all three auctions are safe to use.
Since auctions were one of the last major pieces of the downtime cleanup puzzle, we will now be able to go ahead with the double BP event as compensation for lost funds, and we will also be issuing Care Packages to the newer accounts that had to be restored or had a severe delay in being accepted.
Stay tuned for details on these! I'll give you plenty of warning for the BP event so that you can hopefully take advantage of it and try to recoup some funds.
We are also working on some items to release for BP so that you'll have neat things to spend your extra dough on. :3
Thanks for hanging in there with us!

This may seem like an odd question but does a Gold Star Charm stack with the double BP event? (so I could get 4X BP?)

Yay auctions! Of course, they were brought back right after I put all my unwanted (some rare) pets into the adoptions... oh well. It's okay. I hope they find fun owners.
