If you are not acquainted with the Lord of the Rings Online scene these days, chances are that the headline above made about as much sense as the Black Speech.

“A bug has allowed some players to consolidate the numbers of Embers of Enchantment, Motes of Enchantment, and Figments of Splendour onto their account far above the Wallet cap of 10,000,” the studio said on the forums. “When the Minas Morgul expansion is released, all Embers and Motes of Enchantment, along with all Figments of Splendour, will have their total set to the cap of 10,000 if their total exceeds 10,000.”
Earlier today, both LOTRO and DDO were experiencing serious issues that kept players from logging into both games. SSG said that these issues have since been resolved.
