Toontown Online - HoC Transcript @ Stratics
by Inauro, 23:01
The transcript of Stratics' first Toontown Online House of Commons is now online.
Preston - *Trish* A few weeks ago, there was a massive amount of accounts put on administrative hold for alleged macro usage, and many of us claim to have never used a macro. Some toons called customer service and were told this was due to a bug in the system. Two questions: What caused this to happen, and are the flags that would've been placed upon these accounts now removed?
TT_Greg - Like most MMOs, we take cheats and exploits very seriously.
TT_Greg - The action we took a few weeks back was intentional and not a bug.
TT_Greg - Unfortunately, sometimes there will be false positives when we do a sweeping action like this.
TT_Greg - If you feel you have been wrongly accused, please contact Customer Service and we will make evry attempt to make it up to you.
TT_Greg - But the bottom line is: when the devs are looking into cheaters, we aren't spending time adding features to the game!

by Inauro, 23:03
Head on over to OGRank for a glimpse of the 1.0.22.6 Toontown Online test server patch notes.
In the last few days the ToonTown test server received a number of bugfixings, bringing the game version to 1.0.22.6. Game version in production servers is still 1.0.21.13 but the new patches should hit them soon.More...
The new improvements are the following:
* You will now see a "Skill +" message briefly where your water button is after watering a plant. The button will then change back to displaying "Water".
* You can no longer use Emotions from SpeedChat while doing Gardening actions.
* You cannot use the Insta-Grow Fertilizer multiple times anymore. It will now be deleted from your Gardening Specials page after use.

by Inauro, 00:15
Thanks to OGRank for directing our attention to the closure of the German version of Toontown Online. The Toontown-Online.de staff have produced a FAQ regarding the closure that can be viewed at the official site. A Google German to English translation of the site can be viewed here (FWIW).
