Tree cutting bug

Bug: Trees affected by memory-loss.
Location: everywhere.
By the look of the clear-cutting by the blacksmith, I can tell no-one has noticed that trees are affected by the same "memory-loss" bug recently exploited against sieged buildings. If you stop cutting before the tree is depleted and logout, then login again, it resets the cut counter. Today I managed to cut 14 trunks from a single tree with lvl 1 woodcutting and a speed 1 axe on a mage. At no time did i receive 2 trunks at once. This exploitable bug could render the cutting update irrelevant. It should likely be dealt with quickly by placing the cut counter server-side rather than client side.
