- Referrals now give 2000 EXP and 5 karma every time somebody you referred reaches level 10.
- Referral bonuses continue until your 20th referral, after which you will only gain 200 EXP per new referral, and no additional karma.
- You can now refer people even with your sire link switched off. You can use your sire link to do this, OR you can use the new referral link. Referral links can be found on the free karma page.
- Referral links will never sire people under your character, even if your sire link is switched on.
- Facebook share buttons now use your referral link by default, so there's no danger of accidentally getting childer from them, but you'll still gain karma and EXP if the person reaches level 10.
- Facebook shares also now give a bonus of 400 EXP for each week that you share something to your Facebook wall. Events which can be shared can be anything from killing an NPC, stealing some loot, attacking somebody, etc. Twitter and other social media sharing bonuses are also coming soon. Share bonuses are available again every Monday, and may be gained for as many of your characters as you wish.
- Remember, referrals only count if the person is new to the game. If they have been referred before, or already have a character, you will not be recorded as their referrer.
- Also remember, if you use your sire link and the newbie selects somebody else as their sire, you'll still be recorded as their referrer (if they are new). Referrers and sires are two different things, as your referrer is the person who first linked you to the game.
- You are encouraged to seek out those you refer and help them reach level 10, as well as staying active in the community. You can get a list of those you have referred on the free karma page.
Please note: attempting to cheat the system by changing your IP to make it think you've referred new players (when they are in fact accounts of existing players) will result in punishments, as you'd essentially be stealing karma.
