Permanent Kino Pet Gift Issue

I have no idea how the game reads this kinda thing. I'm assuming the same number they use for "infinity" is probably the same number they use for "none", which would explain the glitch.

So I'm guessing Perma Kino is set to 0, and when an item is purchased from the cash shop and already at 0, it's treated as permanent. However, through some glitch that has to do with gifting it, the gifted pet marked as 0 doesn't read the 0 as infinity, rather as "none". In other words, you'd be adding 90 to 0, and it'd most likely dry up in 90 days.

I mean, I haven't tested it out myself or anything. I would assume Nexon would try that out in private before giving away 12k Maplepoints to everyone. Though, this is Nexon we're talking about. No telling if they took the 4 minutes to test out the effect of a Water of Life on a "permanent" pet.

Well I thought I'd try it out on the account I gifted a Kino to (I had enough Maple Points and didnt care if it didnt work). I revived my "dead" permanent Kino and it now has no expiry date and it says "permanent" on it. We'll see what happens in 3 months time.
