**WINTER OF WOE - BONUS OBJECTIVE POINT**
As previously announced, the team will be distributing an additional point toward milestones to anyone who completed the Absorbing Man fight in the first step of the Winter of Woe.
This point will be distributed at a later time as it requires the team to pull and analyze data.
The timeline has not been set, but work has started.

There is currently an issue where some Alliances are are unable to find a match in Alliance Wars, or are receiving Byes without getting the benefits of the Win. We will be adjusting the Season Points of the Alliances that are affected within the coming weeks, and will be working to compensate them for their missed Per War rewards as well.
Additionally, we are working to address an issue where new Members of an Alliance are unable to place Defenders for the next War after joining. We are working to address this, but it will require a future update.

Bans for Exploiting Bugs [MERGED THREADS]

I'm not disagreeing in that quitting out is on the same level as farming. However, both are still violations and should be treated as such.
I recognize that I have no say in how Kabam treated its violations, but all I can say is that the way they're doing things is messy.
My solution? Punish each and every instance of bug exploits, whether it be force-quitting, farming, character bug exploits, etc. Why should the smaller violations go unpunished?
I do have *some* sympathy for players who clearly leveraged the exploit but didn't do so to a high degree. But that's a risk associated with going anywhere near an exploit. You can't assume the punishment will always be proportionately calculated to be "fair" to everyone. That's why they call them ban hammers. They aren't surgical instruments. And they aren't intended to just restore the correct balance of things: they are explicitly intended to be punitive. They are supposed to appear disproportional, to have a future deterrent effect. If punishment is just "reasonable" people may start to think it is a reasonable risk to take. We want the risk to appear to be never worth taking.
And to be fair I wanted to do the exploit, but I didn't because it was unfair to others and would break TOS. Read DNA3000's point.
