    Hey guys, I bought 1,000 circus entrances before event finished. Turns out they work still? I just earned 2 cut peridot AFTER the event finished, i still have 960 entry left.

    Shall i proceed ? Is this a bug, or a feature? I don't wanna get banned! Is this a bannable offense?

    Thx elve.

    First delete the part( i earned.... :) ) you are a player or a bigpoint staff ? second nobody can ban you for use of the portals and if this is your drop than why you should be banned but belive me a miracle in bigpoint work maximum 3 times so try it :) . And if this is a bug than other players should have the same drop, ask guild mates, but how did you craft 1000 , this mean that you had 90000 intersferes ? :)

    Why would someone ban you? You can play as long as you have portals.
    Actually 9000 realm fragments ... which is easy to get.
     
  4. This "feature" is well known and has not been addressed despite being present in the past several iterations of the event. To date, no one has been banned for using this and I do not anticipate this changing. Even if BigPoint suddenly changes their mind, I doubt that this is the sort of thing that would have serious (perma ban) repercussions for the following reasons:

    1. You are not "getting something for nothing." You spent andermant or realm frags for the portals. You will then spend essence in the maps, and if you die, you will likely spend andermant to revive.

    2. You are not going out of your way to use an exploit like was present with the anniversary event. Instead, you are using a natural game mechanic.

    3. The use of portals as opposed to a door that consumes some sort of event currency indicates that this may indeed be intentional and in the same category as the Stellar Gold maps, or even the moon maps which can all be run whenever. The catch is, doing this outside of the event period is a "waste" because you are not getting any progress towards the event.

    Finally, even if they do feel that this is a bug that is being abused, any punishment they devise will most likely fit the nature and severity of the abuse. For the reasons outlined above, I would expect any punishment to be very mild if they do anything at all. The worst I'd expect is that they would take away what was obtained from the "bug."
