I noticed something odd today. I was logged on a few hours on my mage and finally reached 1000 hours. Then I had to log off because I had to run to the store and buy a few things. In the mean time I had dinner and other things and I wasn't logged in for about four hours. I had typied quit, and turned off my monitor, but my zmud automaticly reconnected and I have it auto log in name but not my password. So it sat there waiting for my password for 4 hours. When I came back I tried to enter it but it had alread expired so zmud reconnected and I logged back on. Now I noticed my hours was at 1004. Basicly I was gaining monthly hours that may or may not help for paragon ship, equipment, leadership whatnot without actually playing and only having my name entered into zmud and my internet on. Looks like a bug to me.

O Congratulations, you are currently a Paragon. O
o o
o You have been awarded this title based on the superlative o
o roleplaying you have displayed before others. It is now o
o your duty to help reward others for excellent play. This o
o position is held for one month and may be extended if you o
o use the power and continue with excellent roleplay. o
o o
o Paragon is not a reward so much as it is a job. If you o
o do not wish to do the work, you may ask an immortal to o
o remove your position. Using the power means you accept o
o the task. Abusing the power will result in judgement. o

Also, something I reported before and still hasn't been fixxed is containers. The game is currently missing quiet a few of them because inactive characters have continued having them without loss. The monthly castration of inactive characters does not evaluate containers so as everything might be castrated from lvl 20 and above equipment, aswell as that inside the container, the few really good containers in the game go MIA on characters logged on for a few seconds a month.
