This is ****! I know I'm not getting baned because I didn't get big rewards. I will say the fact that others may pisses me off. Man up to your mistake and fix it.
It looks like there's a little confusion going on, so allow me to try and clear this up for everyone.
First of all, knowingly exploiting a bug or glitch IS a punishable offence. That punishment can come in many different forms, including, but not limited to, a temporary or permanent ban.
Now, in this case, this was an exploitable bug that for some, was completely unavoidable. You may have been doing it without even knowing, because you were just finishing your quests. That's not knowingly exploiting something. But, we said that egregious accounts of exploitation may face a temporary or permanent ban. There is a difference between running a path a few times and getting extra rewards (even if you knew what you were doing) and running the shortest path over and over, 100+ times.
Additionally, if you used the rewards to rank up a Champion, or open multiple crystals, that is the reward that will be taken. If you got an extra Tier 4 Basic, and used it to rank your 4-Star to Rank 5, we will un-rank them, and take the extra Tier 4 Basic, not the other 4 that you had earned legitimately.

@Kabam Miike dont think about banning ppl for uor mistakes. U should appolosise for uor fault. I myself have reported this bug. But i cant let u to punish ppl for uor mistakes. If needed i myself for those banned members will protest legally. U better either take back those extra reward or give those reward who could not get. Thnk u.
Lmao you guys crack me up. Exploiters crying foul! Cmon now, you know the deal, you know the risk-reward, let's not pretend any of this is a surprise, how are you guys playing the victim in this?
Watch the highlighted word of their rule. They say they will remove those reward if that was kabam's fault. No matter they cant ban u for their mistake.

By a quick Google search "exploit" simply means "capitalize on".
Wouldn't it be fair to say that almost all "known bugs" that were not immediately fixed, was in each instance, an example of the player base being exploited? After all, there were many, many "known bugs" that cost the players hundreds of thousands of units. (I'm looking at you auto evade/whif attack bug).
I have read what most of you are saying and who know what's really going to happen. The bank scenario is just ridiculous and any SMART person would know not to spend it. Let's look at it this way; what if you went to a casino and played a slot machine, video poker, keno, etc. and your machine kept hitting every 6-7 times and you kept getting $100 each time. Would you be the person to call an attendant over, or a casino manager, and tell them whats happening? Of course not. The temptation was there and it was there because of a glitch in the a system so some people got a few more rewards than others. A glitch on the side of the server is the companies fault. Banning people is not the way to go. "And that's all I have to say about that."

Somehow my long post was just deleted or at least isn't showing up to me anyway so this will be a bit shorter.
Exploit is simply "capitalize on"
By that definition/synonym isn't any bug/glitch that is a "known bug", that is not fixed as quickly as possible an exploit?
Wouldn't the fact that it takes upwards of 6 months to a year to fix a "known bug" that Kabam has every indication that the "known bug " is costing the players extra units and then not immediately try to fix it, be considered exploiting the players?
Why is it fair that Kabam can exploit the players but not the other way around?

You're talking to a brick wall. Your "demands" will fall on deaf ears.
That one?

Lastly, yes, this was a bug, but knowingly abusing that bug is not okay. This is laid out in our Terms of Service, as well as right here in the forums, in the thread that was linked to from the announcement. http://forums.playcontestofchampions.com/en/discussion/34/on-cheating-and-player-conduct
Look up Drax vs Mordo please

Oh, and he wants an apology.
After they ban your friend, and everybody else that did this, please let us know how you single-handedly took down a multi million dollar company.
Thank you.
If u r honest & correct u can take action single handedly. Bcaz honesty is something more powerful than money. And it is damn true.
Best of luck.
Watch the highlighted word of their rule. They say they will remove those reward if that was kabam's fault. No matter they cant ban u for their mistake.
Of course they will remove the Reward. People weren't supposed to have it.
Look what happened with Drax and Mordo! That was a bug that became SUPER exploitable
