On October 14, 2005 there was a limit placed on how much gold and experience points you can earn in a single day. Captain Rhubarb stated that this was to "prevent cheaters from gaining an insane amount of gold and XP, ruining the overall community". Another reason is to prevent players from abusing unbalanced quests that give too much gold or XP, such as defeating Damfeldork the Were-Dragon over and over (whose XP and gold yield was reduced).
