2015 rank up gems [Merged Threads]

I have seen so many discriminative decisions made by kabam over these 3 years. But this one tops all of them...
BTW, I am an end game player, I have couple of worthy 5* r4-r5 and 6* and also 4,5k units at my disposal. But I was on a business trip and decided to wait for weekend to complete. If I knew this was going to happen, I would rearrange my schedule, probably take day off and definitely go for those gems.
This is probably gonna be the most disrespectful decision ever made in the mobile gaming history.
You should review this decision. Cause you're simply giving some players a full labyrinth of legends rewards(both completion & %100 exploration), and giving the rest of players nothing but rank up tickets for some dusty champs.
Totally agree with this
People just be accusing others of exploiting their way through the game lol
Yes it should be reversed but accusing others...meh
Choices at Kabam HQ have consequences.
Not sure me being able to take up storm equals someone else taking up say domino.
This is so wrong Kabam.

Please reconsider.
That is not a valid excuse.
Kabam stated the reason for the 2015 champ restriction was to make rosters more diverse and engage in future content that will require a wider range of champs. By allowing player to retain rank ups on more coveted champs, it does the direct opposite of the intent of the crystal. It also creates a disadvantage to those that now have to face rosters with much large depth in AW which would have been achieved without the exploit.
Those who finished fast won’t feel cheated?
Everyone knew they were supposed to get 2015 rank up gems. Everyone. If anyone finished early to rank up new champs with bugged 2015 rank up gems, they knowingly cheated.
The only people who should feel cheated are the ones who finished fast but still didn’t use 2015 rank up gems on new champs or the people who haven’t finished yet.
Guess I was wrong, it's not cheating.
If this is how they are dealing with this situation they have no back up when people exploit future bugs.
It will be lost soon.
I do however found a response which linked to a vid from dorky dave, which in his credit is really clear about this matter (thank you for that dorky dave, I resubscribed).
Now since this matter will not be resolved by Kabam in a way we all feel it should be, let’s just agree that we will no longer spend any money on this game untill they do. That includes not spending a dime on a black friday sale deal as well.........hurt them where they feel it, their wallet.
They just gave a popular YouTuber a couple thousand more subscribers instantly last week by mailing every player a link to one of his strategy videos and he’s already posted a video condemning this nonsense.
Makes you wonder why others youtubers haven’t done the same.
But don’t worry. This isn’t going away.
I literally just showed you they’ve done exactly that before
The restrictions were in the item description and on the forums
Go troll somewhere else please
Not allowing a thread to bump is another control technique often used on this forum.
These things usually happen when kabam has their heels dug in. Anyone can see that the decision to allow some players to exploit a bug is a bad one.
I'll quote some past comments from the forum boss that are relevant and should have been used in this situation.
"we have been made aware of an active bug that had the potential to be exploited in a manner that allows players to receive rewards they have not earned"
"this was not a situation that we could allow to continue and have addressed it as quickly as possible in order to ensure that nobody could gain an advantage in the game and tip the balance thru use of this exploit"
The rest is details about the fix and how they would take back resources, champs, shards, etc etc etc. Bans were also dealt out. I thought that the reaction was over the top to that particular bug/exploit and would not want to see the same heavy-handed smack down occur with the current bug/exploit.
Nevertheless, consistency is called for. It's blatantly obvious that exploiting this particular bug has enormous ramifications. The difference between a 2015 champ and current meta champs is night and day. The fact that only a few players were able to exploit this bug only makes the CORRECT decision and CORRECT fix all the easier to execute. Anything else is a direct slap in the face to every other player.
Those quotes above relate directly to what has happened with the current bug/exploit. There's no wiggle room at all.
This should have been an easy call, a slam dunk. Fix it, correct the rosters that exploited the bug, move on. The wrongheadedness of the stated decision is mind-blowing. The inability to think thru these situations is mind-blowing. I can't begin to understand how such a straightforward situation could be handled so poorly, especially when there is precedent for these types of things all over the forum. Even baby Groot pushed the right button in the end and he was just a twig. I'm smh.
“It’s Friday night. I’m not losing my weekend to deal with this sht. Let them keep it.”
Even your precious Dorky Dave thinks you messed up on this one.
Do the right thing. Do the fair thing and reverse these exploited rank ups.
