I remember that too. It was way back at the beginning of the year, and it had to do with linking to the high balcony in the neighborhood from Gahreesen after you had deleted your neighborhood book in Relto. The stone in Gahreesen would send you to a random neighborhood, not your own, but at some stage it would make a new neighborhood if you had deleted your old one and not joined another or created one in the Nexus. Those were called "neighborhood" not "Bevin". Or this may all be a figment of my imagination.

I don't remember that at all, but I suppose I could have missed it.

Actually...

Bevin is the neighborhood district. Just as Kirel is another district...

Or so, I am pretty certain. We need RAWA clarification!

I fully expected a "/me runs and hides from vid" after this statement. Clarification? After all the recent posts and threads and news and events regarding this issue? Including in this very thread? I am... incredulous. Tell me this was sarcasm, or parody, or something...

Do you really expect every poster to read all those posts? I mean, come on!

Early on, I deleted my book and went hoodless for a while. The "balcony bug" would drop you in someone else's hood if you linked to the neighborhood balcony using the Gahreesen stone after you deleted your hood book. I ended up once in a one-man private hood and gave the owner (who was there) an unexpected surprise. That didn't create a new neighborhood for me, though. Later, I did create my own private hood (which is now long-gone) and I don't recall anything unusual about it.

In any event, the balcony bug was fixed in Live 3 (early March).

I remember hearing about the "generic neighborhood" issue too. IIRC, it resulted from some link-sharing from the balcony under those conditions (I never experienced it) but the deal was, you ended up in "Neighborhood" not "<name's> Neighborhood", and it was bone-stock empty. So how one might create a vid-approved "<your-name-here>'s Neighborhood" is still something of a mystery.
