Visible traps, and other oddities.

About 30 min before reset, I entered the Lions Way from FAI with my cleric, and I immediately noticed the green square of an average tangle trap that had been set about halfway down the road towards the bridge. Typically(for those who aren't familiar with traps), the only way that you should see a green set trap is either if you set it yourself, or if a party member sets one. I was by myself, so there's no way it could have been set by another player... unless something has changed? Later on, I found another average tangle trap, in green, set in front of the Sharpteeth caves. I should note that I saw these traps with two different characters, both of which have pitiful search skills. Also, it is completely unusual for any tangle trap to be spawned by the server in an area that is not a dungeon. This, quite literally, never happens.
After reset, I asked in the nexus if anyone else had seen the traps, and one player said they did, in the exact locations I described. I checked the zones after leaving nexus and the traps are now gone. Was this maybe a server glitch? It was very late in the reset schedule, about 8h 45min since reset... the only other thing I can think of is a DM plopped them down, but DM Spartacus wasn't sure why the traps were there(I sent him a tell as soon as I found the second trap).
Thoughts?
On a completely unrelated note(I think...?), and on the matter of oddities, does anyone else get the message "Invalid DM tool!" in their combat log when logging into the server? I get this message on several of my characters when I log in.
