Several Legendary Dons promoted to State don, and we got a new Nation Don, GreindurVanviti. More information about these specific events can be found in the full articles.

Wealth status doesn't change to FSA anymore when someone gets killed. Sabin said, “Actually, this was changed a couple months ago. Wealth Status no longer changes on account of death. This way, you can see how wealthy someone was before they died. Also, people can point to their previous wealthy accounts to demonstrate their game experience (since some crews may require that upon entry).”

Some players use a glitch that causes other people to log out, as soon as they visit a certain topic. This has not yet been solved. It is advised the uncheck this box as a temporary solution, ‘See pictures in other players profiles?’. You can find it in your profile page.
