Thanks for the reply. I guess it might just be a bug in the game, then.
This is the first time I have received a complaint about it, but then
again, I don't think most players bother to e-mail the admin when
something weird happens on a public server, so I have no idea if this
has been a regular occurrence or just an isolated incident.
