I dont get caught, because i don't profit off nothing, but still, it's not a good comment to do. We are trying to do a point here, not make jokes or laughing .
I remember at that time many players exploited the glitch and gets tons of 5* & 4*, however eventually kabam only took away the 5* from the exploit but let them keep the 4*.
Does anyone can confirm this?
If this is correct, Kabam can you go back and take away the 4* reward from previous glitch?
you know, since you are so strict with your policy, please be strict enough to get your policies consistent

Right or wrong with the reaction by Kabam I think those that squandered resources to grind the exploit and then ranked champs made a poor decision considering how much info was out saying they were going to lose it and possibly face bans asa result.
Not only is he honest, but his spelling game is on point. I would hire this guy as my attorney instantly
End of Rant [Steps down off Soap Box]
Those who got a small amount of rewards, be it a single run that got the big bucks, or smaller rewards from lesser quest completion, will likely be unaffected. They aren't after you, because they know it is not worth their while. They WILL hit those who did it a LOT. Massive difference between stumbling onto the bug, and abusing it full-tilt. Those accounts suddenly opening 4-5 5* crystals and 10+ 4* crystals? Yeah, they can find that, should find that, and should bare minimum take it away from them. The worst cases will be banned to some degree.
For those saying that because the game has all these other issues, that makes it okay to abuse the system? From an emotional standpoint, I can see that. From a 'legal' standpoint, that has no merit as an argument. Hypocritical real world 'example': If that bank that always messes up your account and pisses you off leaves their vault door open and unattended, you may feel like you deserve to slip in and loot the place. But should you actually do it, the police and bank will see it in a different light, you can bet on it.
You are aware I'm sure that not everyone logs onto the forums. The TOS that matter are the TOS accessible when clicking on it in game. So I did that and read them. Dull, gotta say. Couple of interesting things, first, exploiting an error for gains is not covered on those TOS. Closest thing is Kabam stating they can remove items from your account for any reason. So it covers them, but still, they should probably state what would cause them to do so. They also have reserved the right to modify the TOS at any time. Understandable, but nowhere does it say you need to come to the forums to see the modifications. So I would think they would need to modify the TOS available to all players.
Unrelated but an amusing tidbit in there states that they do not accept any user ideas. Kinda make the whole suggestions part of this forum pointless. At least they planned on ignoring us from the start.
Now I very well could have mis-interpreted or mis-understood some of what was in there. If you think so, please read them, let me know where I will be happy to go back and check it out.
But based on their own TOS the only thing that would cover gains from a developer error is the part that allows them to remove items from your account for any reason. So anyone "exploiting" the error would have no idea before hand that the items they earned would be removed. Not all the players are on this forum and reading it regularly.
You may want to reread my post. I did not take the opinion you accused me of. In fact your rebuttal actual agrees 100% with what I actually said.
Yea, that confused me also.
Miike, could you please point out where this is covered by the TOS that is available to all players or where it states you have to come to the forums to read modifications or rules not covered in the TOS? I have been unable to find it mentioned anywhere in the TOS.
Thank you.
Thanks for linking them Soura, but I asked where it was covered in there. I read through them and I didn't see it. Now it is possible I missed it, which is why I asked for the help in finding where it is covered.
And before I get trolled as one of those people who are always looking for free stuf due to any bug or issues, im not really for getting stuff for free every time there's an issu. I'm simply proposing it as an alternative to the "scrape back" they are doing against those who did exploit the bug. I'm all for rectifying the mistake they made. Seems like an easier and kinder method than that they are planning
While I wouldn't mind getting all that stuff, I don't think it is realistic. Not everyone who got extra rewards got the same amount in total I am sure, so how much do you give to everyone? If I'm customer service here, I would just leave the rewards with whoever got them, exploited or not. It is a situation that is not specifically covered by TOS, even if it were, not sure I would enforce it. My thinking is that there has been some issues with the game for the past 6 months and much of the customer base is upset about it and here is a situation where the glitch worked in favor of them, it should be treated the same way as a glitch that is disadvantageous to the player base. Sorry it happened, working on a fix, but we can not refund your units or potions. In this case they are going to take back, doesn't seem equitable to me.
If they returned the 1000 units and a slew of potions because the game crashed 8 times in one night, then I can see their case for taking them back. I just think there should be consistency in how they deal with errors and glitches. If they don't give them back to the player base due to their glitches, why should the player base give back to them because of their glitches?
Max wat someone got might b given to others.
I'm sorry, I do not know what you mean with your comment.
Ok, I see what you mean. But if the situation is reversed and a glitched caused some members to spend a lot of units, they don't then take the same number of units away from everyone it didn't effect. All I am saying is they treat it the same way they treat glitches that cause the player base to lose items. Work on the problem, but move forward not reimburse.
I just hope they have a fair way of determining who only did it once and those who really abused the glitch. Fortunately, I'm not one who received anything because of it. For those who did, good luck in dealing with how Kabam doles out their "fairness"
Neither did I. Still itching for my first 5*, just 43 shards away! Hearing about the 6*s coming out a few days before I get my first 5* was disheartening.
We don't leave bugs in any longer than they need to. This includes ones that make the game harder for players. It's not fair to say that every bug that affects players is not acted on right away. There have been countless bugs that we act on and are able to fix as fast as possible, but some bugs take much longer, especially ones that are performance related, because they do not affect all players the same way.
For instance, there is a known issue where some players are experiencing trouble with game mechanics in fights. That requires engineering time, investigation, and then usually a HUGE change to the base of the game itself, while a server side fix on an issue like this is much simpler and can usually be done in a matter of hours.
Additionally, this is ignoring a lot of issues that negatively affect players that are dealt with very quickly. Those issues are usually something server side as well. If we had a simple way to just fix every bug with a little switch, we would do it, but that's not possible.
Agree. Mcoc need more care. We will always help to find bugs. U guys need to help us too by giving more better service.
