Response to the Tradeskill Depot issue

To our valued EverQuest community,

We want to address the recent situation that has impacted our beloved game and our dedicated players. Our team was alerted to an issue within EverQuest and responded with the urgency and gravity that the situation demanded as soon as feasibly possible. We understand that you would like information and updates on what is happening and what the plan of action is, and when or if there is something we feel can be shared without causing further damage, it will be posted. We apologize for the noted lack of communication and will strive to do better in the future.

Our next step will be to continue meticulously reviewing all the data available to us, which may lead to further actions being taken to ensure the integrity of the game. Our commitment is to focus our resources on identifying and resolving issues, and as such, we would like to remind everyone that spreading false information or engaging in cheating not only undermines the game's integrity but also diverts our attention away from constructive problem-solving. Discussing exploits in public forums can inadvertently assist others in misusing these vulnerabilities and complicates our efforts in effectively addressing these issues. Instead, we ask that any exploits be reported directly to us through the appropriate channels.

In conclusion, we thank you, our community, for your continued support and patience as we address these challenges. Our commitment to EverQuest and to providing a fair and enjoyable experience for all our players is steadfast.
