So it seems to be a running deal now that this is the second time a cute 1 day only plushie has arrived and left. So its safe to say there might be more in the future.
Which brings me to a bug I just happen to run accross.
You see reset has come and passed, it being 7pm where I live.

So how did I send AHBEE 2 plushies even after reset?
Well to put it simple, I always have a tab open for the dream shop to come by every now and then to get my dp. And since it was reset and I havent refreshed the page, I thought it would be funny to send a plushie that is supposed to be gone. To my surprise, it actually worked.
Now at first this doesnt sound like a big deal, but heres where I say
The plushie was free

I received no gems nor lost any DP when I sent it. Confirmed this when I refreshed, causing a second plushie to send, and noticed my dp never changed
But OStar, who cares? You didnt gain anything!
The person who got the plushie did. Checking AHBEE's collection, she has 5 Mio plushies, 2 of which were from me after reset. Meaning I have the power to send her thousands of Mio plushies without losing any DP and boosting her collection. I have no idea if custom plushies count to the "Biggest Plushie Collection" ranking on the ranklist, but assuming this does, someone can easily exploit this and have an alt/friend send them thousands of the same plushie to gain that ranking.
Or they can find some other means of sending this plushie to many people using the CTR+Click method (opening a new tab while retaining the other)
While it may seem like no big deal, it is pretty unfair to those who paid to send this plushie while someone else can just use this exploit/bug/glitch whatever, to just send themselves (using alt or another friend) or their friend or stranger a plushie for free at any time as long as that tab is opened and hasn't updated.
On the bright side, considering these are free, I doubt anyone can use them to get free shiny starters. But I haven't been able to test that out, nor want to (I aint getting banned, no no)
Im s o r r y but I didn't check the "You've spent (x-amount) Dream Points on Plushies so far." when I sent the 2nd plushie (totally forgot that existed until now, after I have gotten rid of that tab) But considering I got no gems nor was charged, I don't think that changed.


Oh and FYI AHBEE knows I am mentioning her here and would understand if those two plushies were removed considering I didn't pay for them. I literally stole them haha

EDIT

The free plushie doesn't add to total DP sent, but it does count to sending a plushie daily quest
I also decided to test what would happen if I favorited the limited plush to see if its still sendable. It's not! But it does count to being favorited so now I can only have 19 favorite plushies instead of 20!! :DDDD

I've reported this directly to Riako because it was possible to send any plushie that is usually not obtainable for free and it was quite easy to do.
This is now fixed :)
