So, I log in one of my characters today and I see this:

<begin stuff>
You feel yourself being pulled away...
[Training Correction]
You are here because a problem with your training has been discovered, which appears to have been caused by a character manager bug. This has been recorded with your character and account name, so senior staff may determine if further action should be taken. This does not mean you have done anything wrong, but you must use FIXSKILLS in this room now to synchronize your training before you can exit. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. Please refer to NEWS 1 6 for further information.
Obvious exits: out

At this point, you need to adjust your skill goals so your intended skill set is within the boundaries of your earned TPs. If you spend fewer TPs than you have earned, you will have the remainder free to spend as you choose. To see how many training points you are out of sync by, just try to go OUT without fixing anything.

If you are unable to use the web-based character manager, please REPORT so that a GameMaster may assist you in using the in-game version, but be aware that there may be a slight delay before they can get to you.

The use of FIXSKILLS in this room will not detract from any options you may have remaining to use the verb normally, but the effects will be just as permanent as a normal use would be. Please be sure that your skill goals are set to your satisfaction before using it.

</End Stuff>

Now,

News 1 - 6 tells of a CM bug that allows you to overtrain past what you should be able to. Anyone know more info on this?

I've got a request in now, queue'd up, but even in first place it'll probably be next week before I get a referral :(

Either way I'll post results here.

Here's a link to an earlier thread on what I believe to be the bug you're dealing with:

You'll have to wade through some posts on other bugs (and some posts on nothing much ;) ), but on page 3 or 4, I think there's a post that pretty much repeats the messaging you got.

Ahh, well. I searched and pulled nothing up. Probably my crappy search skills :)

Anyway, they're dead serious about this stuff. If you do it, you'll get banned.
Wonder why they won't just fix it? Too busy releasing Assume Aspect I guess.

Here's a link for you. It's the third post down (Bobmuhthol's, I think). :)

It's a re-up on a free fixing of your skills (if you've used one up already) I'd suggest you GOALS real quick.

Nah, only if you're seriously abusing it. A lot of people just get a free fixskills.

Few of my characters got that too, don't worry about it. Free fix skills is all that matters! If they thought you were cheating, you'd probably be sitting in a different room. :grin:

I got pulled for that a few days ago and it actually worked in my favor. Im at like 2000+ physical converted to mental and it actually gave me more mental and adjusted physical.

And you cant beat a free fixskills.
