Subject: Making poeple disappear, as in a magic trick
   Hello! I happen to be able to make people disconnect by trading with them. I use my ability to entertain people, and before I make the trick I make sure the person wants to disappear. While this is just for entertainement and no one was disappointed yet, I fear that someone would report me for what I'm doing. Is it allowed to make people disconnect on purposed when they agree that it'll be part of a magic trick?

   Can you tell me the precise circumstances under which this appears to occur, Bluebarry? Are they disconnected as soon as you open a trade window, or do you actually need to exchange items? Does the "Will Not Be Traded" window come into play, or is this happening with normal trades? This information should prove quite useful in our investigation. :)

Q u o t e:
I happen to have two unique boe item in my inventory. When I trade them both, it makes people disconnect. I messaged a GM once about that, and he told me to reset my UI folder O.O. I found that solution absurd at the time, so I made a thread in the bug report forum, but no one replied to it.

One day the mailbox was broken, I was picking items from it but the items wouldn't go in my inventory. Then I relogged and I had these two books in my inventory! I thought it was funny at the time, then I started taking bets with people who believed it was impossible to have 2 unique items. Noone actually wanted to bet any gold with me, which is sad because I would have liked to make some gold, but this is when I started to put the books in a trade window to prove that I had 2 books that are unique. This is by pure luck that one day I click on the accept button while trading the books, and it made us both disconnect. Then I had the idea that I could make people disappear and I started doing my magic trick to other people who wanted to see it!


Hello Bluebarry,

I have referred your issue to the character specialists so that they can look into and correct your issue. In the future I would advise against the use of such "magic tricks" to disconnect players as such behavior could be seen as exploitive if viewed in the wrong light. I wish you the best and thank you for bringing your problem to our attention. Good luck.
