While I was running the code to adjust values and give refunds for the body armor change, I tried to save myself some time and told it to just adjust all armor that needed it.
Tattoos aren't designed to be treated like other armor.
So the unintended side effect was that a few hundred tattoos got set to near-zero and their owners got a few $million. I realized the problem when the script tried to set a tattoo lvl to a negative number and quit.
Fortunately in case I ever did something like this the script logs every change it makes. So I was able to set everything back the way it was, after a little fun with "natural join" being retarded.
We're back to normal now. Or very very close. :)

Thanks for the explanation
I'm assuming the money got reset also.
Does everyone get to keep their money, and get the tats back to normal, or do they lose their money?

I wonder how it calculated how much to give... cause I got over 45Mil for a tat under 7Mil in level, way less than Steeds...
Hit Update Stats on yourself if you don't see the money yet. Really, it's there.
where is this button found?
It's on your character view page. However, it's easier to just train nothing.

OOps we're in that thread... well basically it was a mistake and money was taken back and tat's remained the same. It only happened to about 100 people.
