    Sure take the rewards back but why threaten the homest players with a BANN. They aren't threatning the people that are not experiencing certain bugs with a BANN because of their faults but they are when they are threatning the people that are experiencing bugs witha BANN. That is not fair

    But the double evade didn't affect me! I never had that, I haven't been bothered by glitches in game since the massive 12.0 abomination!!! So I had an unfair advantage over most In game.

    @danielmath like I stated before, I was not experiencing the double evade bugg. Should I be BANNED because everyone else was expering the said bugg because of Kabamas faults. Like seriously, the scale was tipping towards me va everyone else. I had an advatage over a lot of other summoners... I should have been BANNED for that...

    @GroundedWisdom - not sure what you're saying there.

    Thought it was pretty clear. I may have clicked the wrong quote but I believe you were implying they are more motivated to fix bugs that cost them.

    You can quit if you want?

    @danielmath I wanna be BANNED, I don't want to quit. Quitting proves nothing unless it happens in mass numbers, Bans a better way of quitting the game lol

    Okay. Put it this way. The server is their computer. When you open a Crystal or complete a Quest, that's where the Rewards come from. Some problems are because of an issue with the game you install on your device. The exploit was from their computer which is why they could fix it faster. Other problems depend on what device you're using, how often they occur, what part of the game you're in, whether it's Android or Apple, etc. Other factors. They can respond faster because it's coming from their server..

    Basically just coz a guy in front of u does a wrong-doing doesnt justify your wrong-doing my friend. However on the same note I feel it should have ended at taking back the exploited things and shouldnt have resorted to banning.

    Moreover I can feel your pain, i was one of those FORTUNATE *coughs* ppl to be taken for beta test that they did without informing us and its compensation never saw the light of the day!!

    The fact is that this game still is a sole entity of KABAM and so we have to agree to their ToS. It can (or rather does) suck sometimes but move along.....its just a game! *secretly takes money from Kabam for siding with them* (sarcasm)

    @Spirit - it is a game, and the post is just sarcastic diatribe from a guy (me) who's just grown tired of the nickel and diming. To suggest the rewards I received would tilt the contest in my favour is laughable! 3x's those rewards I received (and yes I know and agree that I shouldn't have) wouldn't make a lick of difference in my profile! The threat of a ban, because I just continued to clear my paths In Quest (like I always do) . Is just comical, remember back before the 12.0 update? When the game wasn't up to par, we got some revives and health and some other things as "compensation" ? Remember that? And then when the 12.0 came out and #boycott became prominent. Kabam was quick to throw together rank down tickets and assorted other stuff, because they knew we were serious! But since then, what compensation have we got ? For a game preforming poorly? None! But when a mistake happens that gives people some extra rewards, on it like a flash! (Again not disputing that they should have taken them back, because I agree 100%) I've just grown tired of the one way street us summoners seem to be on!

    It's amazing how obtuse a large portion of the community is on this issue. Yes, he realized he was getting extra 3* venoms. But why does that mean he should stop running the quest in the normal way? Running the same path to avoid 100% to keep getting glitch rewards is exploiting. Running the quest to 100% is not. Completion was going on. Would Kabam compensate missed completion points if he stopped running the quest? Would they add more time to 100% if he stopped running it until the glitch was fixed? He did nothing wrong and the extra 3* venoms mean nothing. Stop being stupid lol

    Haahaha. I cant believe this guy. He should read TnC before playing. He may be the one who used up units and energy refills to get a few hundred T4Cs thinking he is sorted for a year.

    Whining after making a mistake that the punishment is too severe.

    remember "Follow the money" from All The President's Men ? Think of how much $ Kabam will loose if they fix Perry/Double evade/Pure skills etc.etc.etc. , now think how much money Kabam lost because of the glitch?

    You guys need to stop posting acting like you've done nothing wrong. You don't deserve those rewards and to have an unfair advantage over other players.

    In the real world, we have people who are looters. I remember back in the 90s during the Rodney King (Los Angeles) riots a journalist was chasing down some white lady who just robbed a store saying "are you ashamed? are you not ashamed?". Evidently, the looter didn't want to be interviewed.

    In the recent Baltimore riot, a journalist was interviewing a young black looter. He was very polite too as in "yes ma'am, no ma'am". He reasoned that if he doesn't do it, someone else will.

    The people here are no different.

    When they see an opportunity to take something that isn't theirs, they will do it.

    The only difference between the "brave" looters of the internet and the looters of the real world is that the real-world looters don't whine when caught.

    When we find issues with the game that can be fixed quickly we do take actions to do so. Some may take longer, as they may be device dependent issues or far more complex to fix.

    Lumping bugs (which are not intentional) and exploits (which are intentional) together isn't constructive.

    There's more information in this stickied post regarding the topic, the actions we are taking, and why.

    @TenebrousTenebrific The exploit was unintentional on kabams part same as bugs are. Therefore should they be treated differently?

    That's the point the OP was making.

    @Dark_King888 - you should really read and understand the post! .... your reply couldn't be more off base. Smh
  • Wiki9Wiki9 Member Posts: 71
    @TenebrousTenebrific if bugs giving us the "advantage" have punishments than bugs giving us the "disadvantage" should have the opposit of "punishments" which would be rewards or compensations, yet I haven't seen any rewards or compensations given out for a while because of Kabams faults... I wonder why...(sarcasticly)

    @Dmas21 you go ahead and read the post and then my comment, with nothin in between.

    I agree the games not behaving well, I agree we are shortchanged on compensation and I agree we deserve a little more for the bugs and issues we are facing for ever now...

    But I totally also agree that anyone who used a bug to gain an unfair advantage should be punished. If a few T4Cs do not make a lick of a difference to your esteemed profile, why did u do it? It would have made difference to mine, and I still didnt do it.

    You did it cuz you thought when you get new champs, it was one less chore to accumulate T4Bs and you could rank them up quicker and have a new unfamiliar defender in war. Just one scenario of unfair advantage.

    Own up man, you **** up, you did try a bylane and got a ticket. Suck up and face it and come back cleaner and stop whining.

    @Dark_King888 - what rewards do you think I got? Lol, I got a roughly 13 3* Venom, t4b shards (13 x 2700 shards), a bunch of 3* shards, gold and ISO. Do the math , 1 T4b, all o which were taken back, including all the 3* shards un opened. Roughly 13 paths in beginner quest, of which I had not completed. So I completed it, without using energy refills. Completed one path, then on to the next. Never running same path twice. As I've said many times in here and in several different convos, I knew hey would be taking them back. I'm not arguing over them taking back the rewards, I agree 100%. But like I said, you missed the point the first time you posted. And in second post you agree with my point but then your still hung up on this preconceived notion that I'm upset about the rewards! 1 t4b and enough 3* crystals to make a 4* outta shards isn't anything to get bent outta shape about. Especially when I shouldn't have got them to begin with! If that doesn't clear it up for you, well not much more I can explain. The Op was a sarcastic diatribe from a guy who's just tired of kabam, take it for what it's worth!
