Setting price parameters when searching for cash items in the auction house after v261.2 causes the game to freeze for a few minutes before crashing with an NGS hacking error. Players aren't getting banned, but it's causing fear and a lot of frustration.

The freezing has been an ongoing issue for several years when setting a maximum price for cash items while the search generated results, but it never caused a crash and hacking message until the recent minor patch. I thought it would be fixed over time or someone else would report it, but I guess no one ever did. I really hope it can be fixed soon because it's impossible for players to find cheap perms under a certain price range.

  1. Enter auction house
  2. Click on the Cash Item tab, select Outfit from the item type drop down, set any price for the maximum cost, and click the search button.
  3. The game will appear to be searching for results but freezes and becomes unresponsive for a few minutes.
  4. The client either crashes with NGS hacking detected or disconnects to world select and then crashes when you try click into a world with a "You have been disconnected from the login server" message.
