I remember back in SoM. People exploited Sword Halls to get relics (I think it was). Suddenly you noticed that something was happening (it's scarry when you're in a real crowd and you get this feeling) and WHAM the server was very very quiet for a week. After two weeks there were more activity and after four weeks it was mostly business as usual.

Except...

Some kins had been almost completely wiped out. Kins that had abused this exploit a bit too much. I would assume that everything we do in-game leaves a log-trail about a mile wide...

P.s. this was when the European servers were run by CodeMasters.
