Clear message you're not to exploit the system.

There's a flaw in the Age of Conan PVP system that players are exploiting to quickly gain XP and and unfairly rise over their opponents. The dev's are hard at work trying to fix the problem. But in the mean-time, they're sending a clear message that using this flaw to your advantage is not going to be tolerated.

Kunz stated, “We have then taken what we consider to be appropriate action against those players by reducing their PvP Levels to what they were before it was possible to take advantage of this flaw and removing all PvP Gear.” Of course, Kunz says, Funcom is open to discussing the removal of experience and gear from those who believe they were unfairly targeted, and have stated that if they’ve misidentified an exploiter, the character(s) in question will be restored to their former status.
