I am angry about the economic exploit.

Saying there was an economic exploit allowing players to make as much as 500 million credits is the equivalent of] saying the grass is green. Asking for details on how they did it is asking for an explanation of photosynthesis.

The cheating in APB was blown way out of proportion. I am constantly getting called a hacker when playing that game. Everyone assumes that if you are doing better than them that you are cheating. I've seen very few actual hackers in my time on APB.

Yay somebody older than me!

I don't think I was around that far back since I was in the fourth grade when the home version of Pong came out. I remember seeing it in the arcades before this but Space Invaders was a long ways off.

Its really not about one guy getting banned tbh. They won't do anything to all that money that made it into the economy and that just ruins the crafting and money making for everyone else. Devs introduce huge money sinks that they want to drain this money, but that just makes it so the rest of us can't continually change out mods, but the things we want while the sploiters enjoy all of it.
I've been crafting and leveling trying to catch up and make money...this bullsheet makes me feel like i'm wasting my time for sure and until I see a legite way of ACTUALLY fixing whats been done as opposed to banning one guy thats already done the damage then I am considering unsubbing tbh.
TLDR version is that the sploiters end up getting more out of the game and what can they do about it now?

Quite frankly I don't care. It will never effect me as I very rarely use the GTN, and when I do, the item has to be cheap for me to buy it. So I get all my gear by questing, NPC bought through comms or credits, or craft it myself.

tennis for two was new in 1958 and is considered one of the first electronic games with a graphical display.... and I was yanking your chain by using the oldest possible videogame I know of.... I'm only 29... so you're still much much older... grandpa

You are right but not. There were a lot of hackers in APB. On both sides. I am not new at playing FPS, RTS, MMO, etc, not my first dance, but some of the moves that are pulled off are complete bs. Some folks were that good, and I loved facing off with them. But the cheaters, you just knew because they defied the rules of the game with their actions.

I cannot explain it. Experience lad. 'Nuff said.

Quote from Cerion:" I never see how reporting someone will benefit you. Play your own game, if people want to use exploits then thats their business. Same with RL. If someones murdered someone then yea, they are a danger to the public and id probably snitch. But other than that its their business unless it directly effects me. End Quote"

Now that's partly right. I tried to get creds from a vender website and Bioware said that it was illegal. According to rule number 12 they say its illegal . But I wanted to say: For God sakes man. Its not illegal. Just let it happen!!!!.
I've seen people do it all the time. And they have any problem with it. It's kool.

Also, I liked it when people had 5 million creds. Made the game alot more easier to play. Instead of being ripped off

Like you said Cerion "but if someone murders another person then ya. Let me add this: or trading money for sexual favors, doing business with a drug cartel or selling something that really high level that could endanger people's lives.(Not about the game). NOW THAT'S ILLEGAL.

It affects 99% of players, however. You probably are affected and just aren't understanding it properly, as well. Regardless, it's an exploit, against the TOS, and harms other players. Why would you not care?

How do you know that he/she did not report their fellow guild mate?
They were simply letting us know a way the "exploit" was abused...not their choices after finding out.
