Dear Settlers,
Please read the following information about important changes that will come with the next version on the 3rd of October.
Premium Items
All premium items will be un-tradable with the next version, because of balancing and technical restrictions.
Players who wish to trade these should do so before the next version goes live.
We might consider turning this on again to a later stage, but currently this is not the plan for this year.
Gems for Friends
The "Gems for Friends" offer will be removed, because of trade fraud.
Again, we want to remind all players to use the save trading function of the game only.
Some users have been taken in by dishonest players who offered gifted gems based on personal agreement, but never delivered it after they received what they requested (e.g. resources). A gift is not meant to be part of trading. Personal agreements can always be risky. A couple of people who abused the good faith of players on purpose have already been banned.
Although our Game Masters have been taking care of these matters and checking fraud reports from the community, we see that this is a problematic situation and therefore have decided to deactivate the "gems for friends" item. We will consider reintroducing it for special events when we have implemented a technical solution to fix this.
Mystery Boxes
Nearly all mystery box items will be removed from the shop in order to rework the items.
Items that won't be offered anymore until further notice:However, the "Mysterious Adventure Box" will remain.
- Normal Resource Box
- Luxury Resource Box
- Mysterious Resource Box
- Mysterious Decoration Box
Please feel free to leave feedback here.
Happy Settling,
The Settlers Online Team
