Take the isk back CCP if you want to retain any credibility to the majority of your player base.

Advice: Next time you find a game exploit and boast about it run it past your crack legal team first:

A small group of market and game mechanics wizards sat in a channel, put their heads together and designed a theoretical exploit to game the system. It succeeded beyond their wildest dreams..
Aryth wrote: FW turned out to have a bug that rewarded LP for both dropped and exploded cargo, doubling the rewards. So we went to work..

Richard Desturned wrote:the only people chanting exploit are the usual "ra ra goons" npc alts, everyone else is just slow-clapping and moving on
The OP used that term himself, feel free to go check. I'll wait.

Yeah, I'm not a fan of cherry-picking either.
However, the quotations were not out of context and if you like I will repost in entirity and highlight the terms exploit/bug/illicit again.

Umm yeah, first complain not enough references, and then complain when offered?

Just a heads-up Richard Desturned, this thread was going more your way before you started posting. Don't you guys have guidelines or something?

Ad hominem, now you're clutching at straws.
So, back to exploits..

Now that the 'pro' GSF team is here, any thoughts on what would be a reasonable solution to this mess?

banning NPC corps from the forums
Yeah, because my $14.95 a month is worth less than yours.
I'd recommend taking a break and letting some damage control take place here, from what I've seen your posts have only dug a bigger hole to dig out from for your alliance.

I'm all for a reasonable discussion of the broken mechanics that were Inferno.
However, the original OP's boasts regarding exploits / bugs / illicit LP seem hard to ignore.
An above poster's comments regarding the future isk effect is worth consideration, titans for everybody in gsf?
I'm not necessarily looking for bans on anybody. But the cumulative effect of this seems out of kilter with intended game mechanics without doing something and I think a proactive approach is a viable alternative.

IIRC they only reversed those made AFTER the publications of the exploit notice.
What was the scale of that fiasco?

The fact is, for most of you, the explanation for what they did is so complex, it's indistinguishable from magic.
Or, in this case, "exploits".
Hard to say it wasn't an exploit when the gsf PR department admitted as much in the first post.

For some reason the end of a Pinky and The Brain episode comes to mind.
Well, tomorrow's another day.
