Message #199483 in the Dreamscape Topics Section:

Dear Dreamscape Citizens,

Thank you for your feedback and suggestions regarding the current token inflation situation. At this time, we have not been able to isolate the origin of this disruption in our service. We are still investigating the situation to determine the cause and prevent it from happening again. At this time, we do have a plan to reduce the sheer number of tokens in the Dreamscape.
We have decided against any sweeping changes in the database because the token economy is only one layer to Dreamscape. Rolling back the database to a previous date will effectively reduce the number of tokens in the economy, but it will distrupt the lives of too many customers in the process--especially anyone who created a new avatar. Logging in to find that they no longer exist is not much of a welcome. Rolling back the database may temporarily solve the token problem, but the fact is, life in Dreamscape continues on and inconveniencing the greater part of our population in order to attempt a solution does not seem to be the wisest choice.
After reviewing the information we have available, we have decided to pursue recovering the tokens on an indivudual basis. We are in or will be in contact with individuals with abnormal amounts of tokens in their possession in an effort to remove those tokens. We greatly appreciate the efforts the community has given in order to solve this problem, and we ask that you continue to support the world through those efforts.
We understand that not everyone favored this particular method of handling the situation and we assure those who do enjoy the economic aspects of the Dreamscape that we will make every effort to have as little impact on your enjoyment as possible. In the larger picture, this will become a part of the Dreamscape history which will provide entertainment and lessons for many.
Sincerely,
Oracle Vaserius
