CT Deletion and No Compensation

[_mkkk_ 194]

Nature of the bug: Auction reclaiming isn't functioning and no notice of CT removal

First occurrence: The exact time was the day after the deletion of the Cloud Temple and the auctioneers there.

Describe exactly all the actions you took leading up to the bug: The evening of when the Cloud Temple was deleted, I dumped a total of 1521 minas into the auctioneers over an Alchemy Tome and a Mirror Banner. I waited anxiously for the next day to realize I still hadn't received my minas back nor items which is when I found out the Cloud Temple was deleted. I then submitted a modreq that Mitto answered. After explaining the issues, he stated that 99% of the GM's didn't even know about this transition and that there wasn't a notice to anyone about it. We had heard things on the forums of the monks being removed but not the entire Cloud Temple on a specific date. I then went to Pandann to discuss possible solutions on skype. Nothing was achieved here other than more confusion as to why I hadn't received anything back. Here is an example of our conversation:

From there, I have been trying to catch Telanir on the server in order to message him about this which was Pandann's suggestion but I haven't been able to catch him. I have talked to other players, one who lost multiple tomes in the auction house, that haven't been compensated for any items.

 What messages are/aren't you getting that you would/wouldn't get normally: It isn't allowing for me to reclaim my items nor am I being compensated for my minas. 

Complaint: It is policy for the GM's to not hand out items willy nilly and I completely understand this. But there was no post at all in the forums informing players that they should void any activity with the auction houses and remove things from spawn before it was deleted. There wasn't a post presenting an official date, and it should've been done a week earlier. I earned a lot of minas from RPing as a merchant and voting to keep this server popular on websites for publicity. Other players have done a lot to work for their MC items and their minas. The staff teams know better than to throw something immediately onto the people without notice. I ask that players who lost items be compensated within reason if they can declare their chests at the old spawn (talking of stalls) and their auctions in the old auctioneer house.

I lost 3 tomes because of this...

Would it have been so hard to give us a warning?

Damn..

[BonesOfTheEarth 2252]

I didn't loose too much, but I did loose an enchanted diamond pick because of this.. Unbreak II, and Fortune I.

Why no warning?!

I had bought 2 stacks of lapis blocks for pick up when I have my enchanting table set up, now however, can't get them out of the auction.

Important: This is what you need to do and you'll get your items back,

 

You need to go to the old auction house. It's still there. As expected, the people moving the CT didn't realize fully how auctionhouses/banks worked so they left it there.

 

This is what you're looking for.

 

 

Go to this location, the location of the old ct, turn left and follow the torches until you find the next sign. 

 

There, at that location, you need to type /auctionhouse claim and/or any relevant commands.  Do not put auctions up. This auctionhouse will be deleted after the claims have been made.
