Welcome to Gaia! ::

Q: I went into rally over the past few days, and have been granted 100K. Is this legitimate?
A: Yes, this is real.

Q: Why did so many people receive so much?
A: There was a little issue with the wheel, though it has been fixed.

Q: Does that mean the gold is glitched?
A: Well, not in the traditional sense. More like an unbalanced grant.

Q: So what does that mean for us?
A: Those who spun the wheel and were granted 100K, may keep the gold.

Q: What about people who abused this and got millions?
A: Most people are just fine. If you did this several times, across multiple accounts, and never thought twice about it? Maybe we'll have a chat.

Q: So...?
A: Yes, the gold is yours. You are free to spend/trade/gift it as you please. A vast number of users came forward with honesty regarding the situation, and it has been decided that everyone may keep the gold they were so honest about. Enjoy.

Q: You said you'd get back to us. Why did we have to find a thread instead?
A: Just by the sheer volume of users to my inbox about this issue alone... if I tried writing you each back, I'd still be sending letters clear into next week.

For those of you who didn't come forward, and a reminder for those who did, remember that if something seems too good to be true, there is nothing wrong with asking a moderator about it. We will happily make sure that something is safe for you, for the better of us all.

I'm happy the problem is solved.... so I can go to rally without being afraid again ;D
thank you gaia staff! 3nodding

If we find evidence that people have deliberately abused this glitch (or unbalanced grant, since that's technically true), then we'll investigate it and deal with it appropriately. 3nodding I think the majority of people have been honest about it though, so there's no need to worry. ^^

Hopefully everyone can enjoy their gold now. I kind of regret not using my mules to try and get it, but that would have been a bit sneaky on my part. xd
