So I'm posting this topic on behalf of my brother who plays this game. He had a problem, and he mailed the GMs. However, for those who know how the GMs work, they do not leave the message open to reply. I put "Devs / GMs" in the title because since he can't reply, I want them to see it.
So after the server crash and restoration, he saw a Silversix Recipe going for 9600 crowns. He decided to bid, and it took 40,000 crowns out of his account. This glitch has now cost him what is the equivalent of 2-3 days of work on this game.
