There's something truly hilarious about broken-game apologists decrying people for pointing out severe exploits because - shudder - it will force the developers to actually fix the problem, which they have clearly not done for weeks.
That's not the reason, and there is no magic fix. There is always a risk of unexpected side-effects, as this particular case shows perfectly. You wouldn't want a fix as bad as the problem, would you?
There are also very good reasons not to "advertise" exploits. Most previous posts about this were erased, and the rules stating how exploits shouldn't be posted on the forum didn't change in the meanwhile. It could very well not be considered as an exploit now, I have no idea.
Finally, people who knew and refrained from posting this did not necessarily intent to use the exploit to their own advantage, nor did they necessarily actually use it to their own advantage. That's the kind of wild accusations holding no value if you can't back them up.

These apologist airheads forget one critical thing: we pay to play the game; we pay the dev's salary. It's not about "threats" - it's about getting what you pay for. Least they can do is fix game-breaking bugs.
They said they are looking into it. Not need to keep repeating this endlessly, i think we can assume that they very well know the extent of the problem.

The final clincher of course is that the arrogant devs have not descended from their elitism to comment on this situation at all to the player base. So stop making excuses for them.
They commented, and said it bas being looked at. What else do you want, you make it sounds like its just a major issue in game and a minor issue to fix. As much as you know how important of an issue it is in game you have most certainly no idea how difficult it is for them to fix. I don't know either, and any of my guess or assumptions wouldn't be more accurate than yours... So, how about assuming less?
Oh, and it's "clichT", not "clicher".
Sincerly Yours, The Naughty Boy.
