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.

The prod is I can't remember all I gotten from the free shop, but i'll go threw my shop and try to remember
I missed it all, so I do not have to delete anything.
I got a SubQ item that isn't retired.
Should it be deleted?
I can't remember how many Power Crystals I got. How many should I delete?
Suzaku, I believe you have to delete those too. The ones I deleted were r150
Check the rarity by visiting Subetahq.com or searching for the items via subeta's trading center! <3
... I'm wondering about R150 items. Should they be delorted too?
Ehh, well. I got an Elegant Gothic Box, opened it, and sold most of the items (which was about 3 or 4 hours ago)...what do I do now :/ ?
I just went through my Vault a few minutes ago and deleted all the items I got from the Free Shop that were over r99.(But not the Wizard Token as those are ok to have) I just hope I didn't miss anything -has gone through vault three times-, I don't want to get a warning or break any of the rules :C
Awn. I have to delete everything I liked <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/smiley_sadface.gif" border="0" />
I kan haz moar tokanz?
So I should delete the Minicore I got because it's rarity 150? Aww, that makes me sad... I wanted to keep it <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/smiley_sadface.gif" border="0" />
Wow, apparently I missed all the craziness...glad to see it's being sorted. And much love to you, Keith, and all the staffers, for not only sorting it, but letting the giveaway go a bit longer to 'make up' for it. LOVE YA!!!!
I don't think my Sun Harvester plushie is an offender, it doesn't have a rarity number...
@TheMadPumpkin

No its only for items 100+ Dragon Breath is rarity 66.Check the rarity of your items to make sure they are under 100.
OK. Deleted my item.
Does this include the Dragon Breath?
its only worth like Yellow 2010 Fancy Glass 994 sP
so i would say im safe.
@Callais.. it says for me Rarity: 101
thats when i click it from my inventry anyways i got it from the donation centre so i am hoping tis ok thanks anyways.
@UMIX

No its only rarity 99 you can keep it.
cries as she deletes Shinwa Plushie ;-; Ah well. I got some other nice stuff, at least. c:
I deleted something from last year giveaways that I am pretty sure I should, but the problem is.. I can't remember anything else? I'm not sure if this is a problem worries Hopefully you guys can delete any others, since I haven't exactly kept track of all my items from the last free shop giveaway xD
However, if I get anything this time, I will delete ^-^ (My memory isn't thaaat bad, haha)
Thanks soooo much for the extension! As to the uber rare items, oh well...easy come, easy go! Still fun in spite of the glitch!!! <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_grin.gif" border="0" />
Does that mean I need to delete the Dragarth Plushie I got?
I got a magical bear plushie. Not sure if that counts or not, but either way it's in my plushie collection right now... =/
I kinda think the Humming Power Crystals are ok too.
it shouldnt be our faults u messed up, u shoulda let us keep the items we got from the shop but owell no use whining about it.
hey people, before you delete something, if you are not sure, search user shops for it. If there are there, probably it's not a problem. If there are none of them, you may have one of those super rare items. That Yellow glass and Lilac Pherret Elixir are fine.
Deleted a Humming power crystal. <3
Thanks for letting us know about the glitch and keeping the event going!

@Sirenia The glass has a rarity of 46 so it should be fine to keep. <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_smile.gif" border="0" />
Lilac Pherret Elixir not sure is this one?
Do I have to delete the r101+ stuff that I got from last year's giveaway too?

Anyways, deleting Voldo. It was so cute though. ;~;
Oh, wow. That must be a pain.

I'd delete if I had anything to...
But yay on the extension!
ok sorry to be a pain but donation centre has items and i just got Yellow 2010 Fancy Glass so do i delete it as they may have got it from the shop.
Ok, deleting Blue Witch Cat Plushie, and Humming Power Crystal....
going to delete crystal now and see if the plushie i got needs to be deleted too
Well, I'll try to frag until I get three crystals, then delete those. (The three I got from the shop are already in my crystal bank.)
I didn't get much, but I can't rememebr everything I got. I am freaking out trying to remember everything. If I forget something you guys will delete it eventually right?
I'm not sure how to determine the rarity.
;/
Ok, deleted 3 humming power crystals.
Deleted 2 cash shop wearables, and a handful of crystals. -boohoo-
Im assuming you will be removing the plushies that were added to our collections from this then, since we cant?
Hopefully this means I might find a token now<img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_smile.gif" border="0" />
I deleted the green scene hair and the 2 power crystals. Unfortunately I can't specifically remember anything else I got through the free shop, and I put it all in my shop which has almost 4,000 items. I'm sorry, I hope you can find them! <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/smiley_sadface.gif" border="0" />
heehee nm - just got an 800K sticker!
Thanks Keith! Deleted the items that needed to be deleted.
I didn't get anything like that, so I guess I'm in the clear. <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_wink.gif" border="0" /> Thanks for making a formal news post about this though.
I was so worried I would have to delete the RoQ Candy Turvey Tattoo I got but it seems Im in the clear. =)
Deleted my tome of water.
Has Keith been giving the president political advice?
Make imaginary things and give them away for free. The masses will overlook the errors.
Dang it. Two of my items are r150 and one r101 so I will delete. <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_sad.gif" border="0" />
But thanks for letting us know. And thanks for the other goodies I did get.

Hope I can get some tokens before bed. I figure this will be over by the time I get up in the morning.
