Bioware please do not permanent ban for exploit.

Now, now... let's not go overboard.


There's plenty of homeless people who could use those houses...

Harsh, but acceptable.

Economic sabotage has long been the worst "crime" you can commit in-world in a MMO. It's disruptive to everyone on the server and it is extremely difficult to remove.

So MMOs tend to give accounts that do it the death penalty.

"Do not do this."

"I repeat, do not do this."

"Please, by all means, do not do it. Actions will be taken."

"Once more, to be very clear, do not do it, otherwise punishment will be severe."

But they did it.

Goodbye. I won't share one tear for any of them.

Pretty Much this^

If you do something even after being told not to multiple times then you deserve whatever you get end of story/

Why should I be punished with a rollback because other players knowingly and willingly used an exploit that harms the economy of the game?

You are GD right that anyone who abused this exploit should be hit with a permaban. Heck BW even came out right away this time and said not to use the exploit or you will be punished. Those who ignored all warnings have no place in this game and should be perma-banned right now.

A >>>>ROLLBACK<<<<< ???????. This is not Wal-Mart.

1. Agreed. We're all adults here, or at least should be acting like one. I agree that offenders should take personal responsibility for their actions. They were informed straight away that this was not acceptable, and it's just foolish to continue. There is no excuse for any occurrences once they were informed. Action should be taken upon those.
2. I purposefully exaggerated in order to draw contrast to the other side of the argument. My entire point was that the punishment should fit the crime. Perma banning should only be dealt out in instances that warrant it.
3. I think there is a witch hunt mentality of some posters here. It's always funny (and this happens often) when there is an announced exploit, or even perceived bug, how many people get caught up in the "I want to know who did it so we can publicly humiliate them and perma ban them so an example can be made of them", which is roughly a witch hunt, or at least a "point and laugh". I don't think BW thinks this way at all. It's just laughable at those who do. Be reasonable folks <--which is all I'm really trying to say.

This.

OP hasn't responded for 5 hours so I guess his bargaining failed

I think he got an early start on his 7 day vacation.
