Will kabam Compensate those who follow the rules?

recently with all the bugs people have exploited and gotten rewarded for it. i wonder if kabam will compensate those who followed the rules and decided not to exploit any bugs as that was the right thing to do. i really hope we do get some sort of compensation as if there is no punishment for exploiting and no reward for following the rules i feel like the game is gonna be a mess as soon as a bug goes live again. i really hope kabam rewards those who try to be good summoners on the game.

    Your compensation is you get to play the game for free. What more do you need.

    what about the mythic crystal bug, bg coming early, infinite AG bug, and picking path in sq bug?
    Your compensation is as follows

    Mythic crystal- you weren't banned
    Bg early - you didn't waste elders marks
    Infinite ag - not sure what this is but i don't think you understand the concept of infinity
    Path in Sq- you already got compensation
    What more do these people need than all of this. Also the infinite AG they are referring to is the same thing as the path in sq being repeatable

    What you’re asking for is like going to your employer and asking for a raise because you didn’t get fired

    The biggest compensation will be a bugless game...
    I seriously won't care if someone got 3-4 7*s from any exploit as long as the game has no major bugs, dropped inputs,etc etc...

    You will care when they will put that beefy duped sassy on defense which they got from the exploit and you lose the match 😂

    No, what they doing is going to the boss and saying “Hey boss, I never stole anything from the shop or clocked in when I wasn’t working like all those other workers. If you aren’t going to reward that then I don’t see why I shouldn’t start doing what they are doing if there are no consequences. Can you help me understand what’s going on here lately?”

    The “ban” for the mythic crystal bug was about a day. If there’s an option to get a free 7 star or more and all I have to do is take a day off the game, sign me up.

    The response to running multiple paths in the side quest with a single entry was a nice surprise. I’m sure some folks are wondering if that is going to be the norm going forward, hence the questions about what they will do about people playing BG early and getting a pile of tokens.

    If the path forward is leniency on benefitting from bugs, I’m all for it. I just want clear expectations. I don’t want to play something being worried I may end up with a 7-day ban or worse but I also don’t want to keep playing it safe and missing out on rewards that others get to keep.

    I understand every bug and every situation is different but I would appreciate an explanation for the decision in each case and a response to player concerns if we don’t agree with the decision or have questions about it that weren’t addressed. In most of the cases lately there hasn’t even been an explanation of the decision and the discussion about the decision gets closed with no comment.

    And all the usual disclaimers apply, I know it’s their game, I know they don’t have to tell us anything, yada yada yada. I just see this as an area where there is significant room to improve and maybe convert more players into spenders by improving the experience a bit.

    Absolutely no they won't.

    Not even going to comment on the bug/ban scenario, but OP, just some general advice: your post was super vague. That doesn't really help anyone, nor actually clarify what you are talking about.

    You then go on to respond to someone describing actual Kabam compensation for an issue with questions about 4 things, two of which are actually the same issue that the previous comment described the fix for.

    You then make some bold claims:
    "if there is no punishment for exploiting" - do you really not know the answer to this? Either you have heard about the bugs but not taken care to actually look into the fact that Kabam has most certainly responded to the ones you cited, and many others, or you just don't think that the reactions are appropriate. But there are certainly at least some punishments or recompense for almost all bugs/exploits if at all provable.
    "no reward for following the rules" - as others have stated, continuing to be allowed to play the game is definitely a perk of following the rules. A clear conscience and encouraged moral character is also a plus that is reinforced by not gaming the system and actually sticking to proper conduct.
    "i feel like the game is gonna be a mess as soon as a bug goes live again." - that's why they tend to try to avoid bugs. With a game this complicated, that's not an easy thing to do though. That is kinda how some bugs work though, the whole point is that a bug is the game not functioning as intended. However, plenty of bugs have been around in the game for years and not caused a major issue, so they aren't front page of the forums. Just an overreaction if you ask me.

    You want compensation for not breaking the rules?

    Great idea op and your post motivated me to demand compensation from the following for these reasons:

    *Demand compensation from police department for not violating any laws

    *Demand compensation from Wall Street for not conducting insider trading

    *Demand compensation from mortgage company for never being late on payment

    *Demand compensation from my job in addition to normal pay for doing my job and doing what I'm supposed to

    Lol me neither.

    Escpecially the bg tearly should be compensated. I guess a bunch of players (that's a guess based on alliance line chats) got somewhere from around 5,5k to 15k trophy tokens. Just sending 10k trophy tokens as compensation for those that didn't complete a VT tier seems logical. Anyway
