    Brief Description: I somehow got another set of Prot. 3 Armor after I got it repaired by lnspectHerGadget.

    Instructions: Um.. I can't really give instructions 'cause I was lagging very badly while coming back to my town & saw that I had my Prot. 3 Set that was in my chest when I got it repaired after lnspect did it for me.

    How many times did you recreate this bug?: Once.

    Result: I got the same Prot. 3 Set I had before it was repaired.

    Expected Result: You should get your tools or armor once they've been repaired & you put them inside your chests.

    Try putting them in a chest or something... sometimes its just a illusion for the eyes.

    There are uncontrollable times when this will happen. Usually due to extreme lag server side and/or a reboot/reset. The item database doesn't update fast enough like it should and thus the server sees the item in 2 places and instead of correcting it, it stays. You profit, and it wasn't your fault so no worries.

    Not for you Shrink..... But anyone caught trying to lag the server to try to dupe items will be immediately banned. This is for anyone who thinks it would be easy to do this for free stuff. Also if its a large enough problem we will just roll the server back and then everyone suffers.
