Land merging question and glitch.

[The Benito Crew]

Hey guys.  So, I had this land that was around level 19.  My sister (who is my ally) had close land at level 5.  I started her land there then traded it to her.  When I upgraded my land again it absorbed hers and gained her levels.  Can someone explain why?  I didn't mean to steal her land.  ALSO, I found a glitch.  When you try to upgrade land and it says you need to build or upgrade buildings or something like that, IT ADDS TO THE NUMBER THAT UPGRADES YOUR BASE.  So, you could just keep doing that repeatedly and get, I dunno, level 100 or more base.

Thanks for reporting the building upgrade bug; it was indeed a serious exploit that is now fixed (although please let me know if you can still do it!).

As for the merging of someone else's land, that does sound like a separate issue; I will investigate!
