Hi.

To explain why I was interested in it, you may know first I'm actually a developer on an other project, responsible of the technical and also security part of my project.

The other players can now know I was involved into a bug resolution concerning the /givecash command which, with a little stratagem could allow anyone having more than 10M credits to double the rest of his cash with no effort.

Don't even try to ask me how, it's now impossible to do it again.

Now I was playing with a friend he had accumulated almost 2 billion credits, waiting for the 4.85 version.
Here we had a discussion on a problem, the cash security.

For your own money security, I'll ask any player having more than one billion credits on one of their characters to split them with an other char. Make a starflea to store the money, it don't take you any money or time and will let your money safe.

The mostly concerned people are the 30 first players listed here : http://igiss.net/flstats/

Thanks anyone. More details will be PMed to the admins in a close delay.

What if you're just barely over a billion? Like...

87 Esther.Carson 89 $1,016,756,293

Would that be a problem? I'm likely about to go under a billion paying bounties anyways, so I guess its no big deal...

(Yes, that is a level 89 Manta. It used to be level 90:P)

The problem is mainly targeting the top 30, no need to split about a billion credits like yours zapp.

I don't understand what you are actually saying. Where does the danger come from? A glitch? Or a malicious action?

I'd like to hear this from a admin for obvious reasons that they are aware of.

Edit: Short advice for anyone that goes out and does this,
if you put to many credits on a brand new character with no play time it seems to get banned for cheating.
I've been there when i rebuilt my banks to change rep.

I think some people get kicks from bumping other players over the max cash mark is what he's on about, but I might be wrong.

For the Core.

A simple addition to the sendcash script to stop any incoming credits to a character would fix that Jake

Givecash does not let you get over the limit. There might be a way to confuse it though.
