(I know there's only 3 here. Feel free to vote for any or all of these to reorder them if you like. If you don't agree that any of these are an exploit don't vote. Items not voted on will be marked for deletion if they continuously receive no votes.)

Notes:
* - Denotes Issue has had some change or addition made to it since last posting.
+ - Denotes New Issue since the last posting. (These will always be at the bottom of the listing.)
= - Denotes Issue is listed by Devs as being fixed in either this publish or the next (generally, 4-8 weeks.)
% - Denotes some part of Issue will be fixed in either this publish or the next (generally. 4-8 weeks.)
& - Denotes an Issue acknowledged by the Developers that should be fixed at some undisclosed time in the future.

Please note that items listed as (*To be Fixed*) refer to the fact that the Devs have acknowledged the issue and expect that the issue will be fixed in either this publish coming up, or (more likely) the very next publish thereafter. In general this will probably mean a minimum of 2 weeks before such a fix will reach the Live servers but that it will more likely be closer to as much as an 8-10 week delay. Few of these items, if any, will rate a Hotfix so in order to ensure complete testing these kinds of delays are necessary. Be sure to check the date the statement was posted for a fix and add 8 weeks to it before considering if there is a problem with the fix not getting out. Please do not mistake the wording of a Dev that states “Fixed such-and-such” in these cases to mean that the item is actually fixed. It is simply a patch note method and the problem may not actually be fully fixed or even ready to go out in the next publish yet. Add the words “Will probably be” before that “Fixed” and you’ll have a better idea of how it should be read for now.

(*In Test*) refers to the next step where the issue has been placed onto Test Center for public testing. In general this means a 1 to 2 week test period before the issue will actually make it out to the Live Servers, presuming there are no undue problems. Again, please check the date of when the fix went to test before considering if there are any undue delays for getting the fix out.

(*Fixed*) Means the issue has been fixed and the fix is currently active on the Live servers. Items marked as Fixed will be removed from the very next issues listing if no further issues arise with the fix.

And for those who may not know but were curious, Ben “Marvelin” Hanson is the primary Medical Professions’ Developer (along with the other professions and coding projects that he also works on).

1.Enhance Stacking Exploit Bug

Apparently the bug that allows stacking of Doctor Enhancements is back. Please fix.

2.Resuscitation on Cloned Corpse XP Exploit

Corpses will show up in the cloning center before the avatar is fully cloned, meaning that a Doctor could take advantage of this situation to gain XP by resuscitating these corpses, to no ill effect to the recipient.

3.Drag and Clone Exploit+

(New Issue)

It is possible to have a player Clone while being Dragged as a corpse allowing them to clone “in place” instead of being forced to the cloning center.

4.Pet Re-Enhance Exploit+

(New Issue)

A pet can be Enhanced for XP then Stored and pulled back out again removing the buffs and the buff timer from the pet, thereby allowing them to be buffed again immediately for XP.

5.Tumble/Healing Exploit+

(New Issue)

Healing XP can be macroed and easily gained by having someone use any of the Tumble commands to cause themselves damage while the healer stims them for XP.

I can hardly believe this is an issue. With all the different super-easy ways to get medical xp (tumbling, dancing, dying without cloning), etc, why even bother with this one?
