On the evening of January 7, 2021, the administration was alerted to suspicious activity by one of the former developers on the server. After a thorough investigation, it was determined that spacejeanss (aka. ubcd) inserted a command that converted a single item into a full item stack, allowing anyone to duplicate stackable items. The server was abruptly taken down to remove the offending command. The blocks duplicated by ubcd and man_page were located and removed. Both players received a permanent ban for exploits.

=== End ===
CivUniverse ended April 23, 2021, after a significant period of inactivity after the server's only major war ended. The server ended with a promise of a 2.0, but as of February 2022 there has been no new information in over six months, and the project is likely indefinitely incomplete.
