A bit harsh Bioware ? The one chair infraction.

I have to disagree with some. This doesn't show the punishment fits the crime because if a mistake happens again he get banned just like a person that totally exploits that bug. It also means that he is as punished as anyone that exploited more, but not enough to get banned.

The closest real world example would be like saying that he bought a stolen CD* this time and next time no matter if it is a stolen CD or he commits mass murder he get the death penalty.



*Smallest punishable crime I could think of you could do inadvertently.

No....what's been proven is that if someone made a mistake they got a warning which is the farthest thing from a ban possible.

edit: And future action is not guaranteed by any stretch of the imagination. Just because he/she got a warning now doesn't mean that he's guaranteed to receive a ban if there is a future transgression. Overall though, if anyone who participated in this exlpoit, or any exploit really, participates in each and every new exploit that comes around they can't really use the accidental card anymore since evidence shows a trend to the contrary.

Agreed...let's not overreact to warnings...they aren't punishments. However...if they do get punished, that's another matter.

Yeah I know accidents happen but it clearly stated it in the launcher and if you didn't read it then its your fault for not being cautious about only buying 50 tbh.

If there's not a chair smashing scene and/or mission in KotFE, I'm going to be very disappointed.

A consistent history of "accidentally" being a part of exploiting in minor ways is a good excuse for taking advantage as much as possible without getting punished. If this isn't a description of you, then you shouldn't have to worry as you won't participate in future exploits.

I didn't even read the launcher warning, I knew from the forums what was going on. Accident or not, Bioware is clever enough to determine who exploited and who didn't.

Because the OP wanted his 1 credit back soooo bad? A warning is very much deserved.

I think it should be clear who abused this and who didn't or did to a small degree a handful say 10-20 resells let it slide, those who did it systematically to show they have no life real warning with the doom and gloom of "if ya do it again we are gonna go medieval on your account;'.

Now if the 'warning' is just BS and next time they'll look at what actually happened then it doesn't matter but if they are counting this as a 'strike' in some mandatory minimum style banning/punishment then the handful of exploits is being overreacted to.

I didn't even know about this, I may have seen a thing about it in the launcher I honestly don't know, my first real notice of this was the post about the 'exploit' from the devs. Still haven't gone to collect my 50 or whatever the limit is of this item.

They should clearly see who was making a profit and who did it accidentally.

I personally think they should ban everyone who was trying to make millions off of it, I mean permanently too.

For starters, who knows if they laundered it on the GTN or if people had their stuff bought with laundered money.

Some have already posted how certain things have jumped in price. These players need to be removed from game permanently imo.
