Since 6/3 the response you get when you cast Putrefy has changed, or more precisely, mostly disappeared. For any mob I’ve tried on VK all I see is “ok” after I cast it. However, the spell is working as seen in the example below:

# <166hp 226ma 119mv>
#
# You hit an evil thug very hard.
# A ghost pounds an evil thug hard.
# A ghost bites an evil thug.
# An evil thug hits you hard.
# An evil thug misses a ghost with his crush.
# A ghost pounds an evil thug hard.
# A ghost bites an evil thug hard.
# You hit an evil thug very hard.
# An evil thug is stunned, but will probably regain consciousness again.
#
# <156hp 226ma 119mv>
#
# cast 'putrefy'
# Ok.
# An evil thug is dead! R.I.P.

Strangely enough, when I was over on BH and tried it on a zombie I did get a descriptive response:

# cast 'putrefy'
# Ok.
# A zombie deterioriates a bit, but doesn't seem to notice.

FYI, typo with “deterioriates,” should be deteriorates. Only noticed because I was using a word processor to type this.

Ok, I will look into it. It wasn't a deliberate change.
