Whoops!
Hey Guys! I know that we've all been having fun grabbing things out of the Free Shop today, but there was a problem with the script that puts codes in the shop.
To keep things simple, it called a function called randomItem() which to the programmers looked fine when we run the script. It looks for a random item, and we thought it used the parameters (which for this free shop giveaway were rarity 50-99) to put the items in the shop.
The problem was, some number of years ago someone rewrote the randomItem() function to not take those parameters into account, and it wasn't noted. So, we've been calling the function and thinking it was working fine.
The point is, that a lot of r100+ items were put into the free shop. These include NPC items, staff-only items, super retired old items, and things like god weapons. If you got anything like that (or anything r100+ that isn't a wizard token) from the Free Shop, please delete it now.
We will be manually removing them as we look through our logs and try to figure out what went out, but it makes our lives so much easier if you cooperate and just remove them. Due to these issues, I'm going to continue the Free Shop giveaway through the night, and throw in tons more wizard tokens!
Thanks for helping us deal with the problems, I know you will all be super honest and run to delete those items right away :heart:!
Note: If you sold an item, or traded it, please make a ticket.

So is this recent? Or has it been happening for a longer period of time?
I've never got much of anything impressive lately, but I think I'll still check the rarities of my items anyways.
Oh my, and I just got online. Thanks for being cool, Subeta. <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_smile.gif" border="0" />
not going to remember everything I've gotten but did send in a ticket about the crystal I got.
lol. I had an item that I didn't recognize. Apparently it was a restock war item. It was only a toy so it didn't break my heart to delete it
Only thing outside those arameters I got was two Humming Power Crystals that I banked at once; I made two more from free shop items and deleted those though, so I guess we're square.
Thank you XD
Thank you XD
I had one I was sure of was over r99 (old subeta item) in my vault bit it was gone so I guess you took it. <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_smile.gif" border="0" />
I found one more in my shop, a costume trunk item, and its deleted now. <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_smile.gif" border="0" />

I will take a look on the items I got. <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_smile.gif" border="0" />
If there is any of them, do you get some other random item instead when you delete them?

I never got anything earlier, though. :/
However, just now I got a red hunters hat. Yeehaw! lol

Is it safe now to get the free shop items??
I just woke up and missed the whole "problem time", but is it ok to get items now, or not?

Wow, I know ONE petsite where this would be a huge problem and all the users who got an item would be frozen immediately...
I didn't get any of those high-rarity items, but I LOVE you for the calm reaction on this <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_smile.gif" border="0" />
hugs and cookies

Oh goodness, I'm glad I didn't get anything like that! It's a good thing you guys caught that function error.
I hope nothing else goes wrong in this wonderful giveaway! It was an awfully nice thing for y'all to do! <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_heart.gif" border="0" />
(Hooray, and now that I know more about PHP I actually <i>understand</i> these updates about site coding and glitches and whatnot~)

This is really simple, guys.
If it's over r99 and it's not a Wizard Token, it needs deleted.
If you traded, sold, gifted, or donated any items over r99 not a Wizard Token, file a ticket.
If you banked your HPCs, file a ticket.

If I were in question about any item's rarity check at subetahq.com. DO NOT go by how cheap they are. The crystals are 150 rarity. I just found out after its too late.
I think it's odd that I got 3 items that are listed as "super rare" and R95 but yet they're only worth 2-5K. Confusing. Shouldn't "super rare" items before worth more than that.
I will check into my items!!!!
thank you guys for continuing the giveaway through the night, the site was down when I tried to log on this afternoon and I thought I missed my chance for good

I'm still a bit confused, lol. Don't think I got anything particularly rare, but I did pick up a humming power crystal from the Donation Corner. I guess I'd better delete that, just in case.
It isn't over, the shop is still restocking. They did say it would go through the night, though how far through is anyone's guess. xD
You don't need to go to any other site to check the rarity. Just click on the item itself, and it'll tell you.
I think it's funny people thought they could keep those items. You guys /always/ mess something up with the giveaway. It's like... part of the giveaway <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_raspberry.gif" border="0" />
My Calvin blackmoon plushie is r99, so that's cool.
...humming power crystals are barely worth 5k :-/ but they're r150. I don't get it, but I'll delete it anyway.
