# Bug & Exploit Reward System

## Introduction

We highly encourage our players to report any bugs, exploits, or game-breaking mechanics they encounter while playing. This includes duplication glitches, excessive money-making strategies, and other exploitable game mechanics. Reporting these helps us maintain the server's economic balance and overall integrity, improving gameplay for everyone.

If you're unsure whether a particular method of money-making is excessively profitable or game-breaking, please don't hesitate to ask an admin.

## How to Report a Bug or Game-Breaking Mechanic

1. Navigate to our [Private Support Tickets](https://discord.gg/j52jh94zKx) channel in Discord.
2. Provide a **clear description** of the bug or game-breaking mechanic. What is it, and what does it affect?
3. Detail the **steps to reproduce** the bug or mechanic. This will help us identify and fix the issue more quickly.
4. If possible, include **screenshots or videos**.

## How to Report an Exploit

Due to the potentially harmful nature of exploits, these should be reported directly to a server administrator or owner. You can contact an admin through [Private Support Tickets](https://discord.gg/4aummv3W24).

## Incentives

We offer **rewards** for players who report bugs, exploits, or game-breaking mechanics. These can range from in-game currency, unique items, or a special "bug finder" badge visible on your in-game profile.

> **Note:** Exploiting bugs or game-breaking mechanics for personal gain instead of reporting them is against our server rules and may lead to penalties, including disruptions to our server economy.

## Response and Follow-Up

We ensure that all reports are addressed promptly. We'll keep you updated about the status of the issues you've reported.

## Acknowledgment

Each month, we'll highlight and thank players who've significantly contributed to finding bugs, exploits, or game-breaking mechanics. We value your efforts and appreciate your help in making our server better.

## Fairness and Integrity

We treat all reports with fairness. Every report, big or small, is valuable for improving our server.
