JovethGonzalez Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 So I just got an email from Bioware stating I was caught using an "exploit". Um...the valor thing was a bug on your behalf, I was just playing the game like you told me to. They then told me they will take action to reverse the effect of the exploit?! So I log in and I see my valor rank go from Battlemaster down to Gladiator ... I'm sorry but why are you punishing me for something that was your fault? Hey ZaneKaiser, we just checked with our ToS team and no action was taken against you. Our team is actively investigating those that took extreme advantage of the situation on Ilum, but you, personally, have not been actioned against. However, due to the misinformation that you have posted, your post has been reported to our community forum team and they will take action, per our forum rules.

Tolarus Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 (edited) **Good news on two levels, offically being called out on the carpet AND they are busting heads of those who were found using this 'exploit'! It never fails, they use it every single time. I love it when they try to turn it around on the studio with the "But it was a bug in YOUR game, your system allowed me to do it so its not wrong" line of reasoning.

Malefactor Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 (edited) lmao YESSSSSSSSSSSSSS Resubscribing if this is true. Regardless of whether or not the OP is lying, did anyone actually believe that nothing would be done to those who exploited? Edit: well it seems BioWare posted whilst I was typing my post, so he was indeed lying. Still doesn't change that something will be done to those who exploited. Not happening immediately =/= not happening at all. Edited January 20, 2012 by Malefactor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rasstavad Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 (edited) One way to find the truth... reported... bioware will have to lock the thread if the OP was never given an official email. If not, well... d@mn!!! /check and mate (yes I'm a geek) They may not lock it - the moderators here may not have easy access to information regarding your toons. I don't know... But the suspicious part is the lack of proof (people always have proof, even doctored, of these things, eh?) and the fact there aren't MULTITUDES of people screaming bloody murder. I still see literally dozens of BM's running around who were rank 40's two days ago. edit: just saw the above post... roflmao. busted.

Dianic Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 Whether you did it knowingly or not, you took advantage of a situation not working as intended and extremely benefited from it. Unfair. Thank you to BioWare for fixing this issue. On my server, I know many players were upset about this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LightAndShade Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 Yes it was Bioware's own fault for creating the opportunity for players to pile on the valor, but it was your choice to abuse an advantage that BioWare can be quoted saying was unintentional and imbalanced the game. You obviously know you abused the system to confer an unfair advantage onto yourself and by arguing that you were just 'playing the game', you are merely using a flawed logic.

I think we're in agreement... some fell for it. Anyway, look at Biowwares response... really read between the obvious lines... I'm extremely hopeful. THANK YOU BIOWARE...
