Where have the forests gone?

As everyone may be noticing, any ethereal forests created by Hartstone (melded or unmelded) now disappear when they quit.

This is a rather disturbing development... could we get confirmation this is a bug and not a change of the skill?

Are you freggin kidding me? I demesned Estelbar (by myself dry.gif ) and Rockholm an hour before it revolted.

Ouch.

I hope whoever forested all of Glomdoring logs in... and then out. *Cackle*
Elryn2005-03-09 05:12:31
Well, it looks like forest created before a certain time is remaining, but I've tested it and whatever I create now disappears immediately when I quit.

Are Aquamancers and Geomancers having the same problem?

Edit: And that would be me, Guido. dry.gif I'm too scared to go look... though I think certain parts of it were already removed anyway.

I just wandered through most of Glomdoring and didn't see one 'pure' room. Muhah.

ARGH! Its all gone!

Edit:
How convenient that it happens now. thumdown.gif
Ah well, I suppose it would have faded eventually anyway... but damn that's annoying.

Any word on other types of demesnes?

You don't have to quit for it to be gone, I have forested a number of locations and not left, however I have returned later to find the forest gone.
Estarra2005-03-09 05:43:10
I don't believe anything has changed.
Elryn2005-03-09 05:44:09
So its a bug? Thank the gods.
Niara2005-03-09 12:05:19
It is the same for aquamancers and most likely geomancers...I noticed it on Astral when Aquarius got watered.....some hours later it was all gone.....maybe it is a new bug thanks to the rapture-'upgrade'.

GAH!

Yesterday I flooded and demesned all of Southgard. It took like 40% reserves to do so.

All gone.

YEAHRGBLBLBLBLBLE!!!

EDIT: And yes, it does seem to go when you log out. I flooded a room in Southgard and logged out to test, when I logged back in 10 seconds later it was gone.
Genos2005-03-09 13:10:52
Yeah, same thing for Geomancers. I Tainted part of Acknor left, came back in about an hour and it was gone. Ixchilgal Tainted all of Acknor, disconnected and came back and no more Taint in Acknor. So that wasted about 40% reserves or so...

I had around 244 rooms of Glomdoring purified at one stage. *sniffle*
Malicia2005-03-09 14:25:40
I hope it's fixed soon. We need those villages of ours forested! Mwahah.
Shiri2005-03-09 14:30:40
You just want to get 1 hit kills on Torak when I wisp him, Mali. tongue.gif
Ialie2005-03-09 14:32:07
Maybe its not a bug but a new event.....
Unknown2005-03-09 14:40:44
In that case, the divine are LYURZ!

But, for their sake (and mine as well), I hope not, believing it's just a bug.

The weakening of Hartstone! The coming of the all-powerful Kethuru.

I wanna ride on HIS back.
Nayl2005-03-09 14:55:03
I'm pretty sure I got every single one of those Inferences....
Bad Erion
Bad.
Erion2005-03-09 14:56:37
I DIDN'T MEAN IT LIKE THAT.

Visaeris wanted to ride Crow. I wanna ride Kethuru. NOT LIKE THAT.

OH EM GEE DOUBLE EWE TEA EFFS!!
