... They literally could/should have just done that now.
Secondly, there is a risk by enabling it temporarily, but it's also easier to deal with those risks in an isolated atmosphere. They were undoubtedly monitoring behavior during the Event, and one of the reasons they disabled it was there was no way to stop people from creating new Accounts and repeating the Fraud.
People wanted and expected it to return for Christmas, as per uge. They brought it back. Now, there's a difference between committing Fraud and playing the system. Using Alts to purchase Units and contribute is not necessarily Fraud, nor is it a violation of any existing rule. Had the Units been bought fraudulently, that's a different story. However, as shady as it is, it's not against the rules to contribute within the rules.
They mentioned that they would be very cautious to bring it back permanently because of the risk, unless there was some capacity that wasn't that risky. Several suggestions have been made on here, but for the moment, it was brought back temporarily.
Bringing it back knowing full well it was abused before is terrible practice and shows corperate greed over rides ethical behavior.
And anything short of a permanent ban to anyone found scamming is a joke
Who says they're not dealing with the accusations? Screenshots are not enough, mind you. Anyone who has reported anyone knows that. You need proof within the interactions and data. That takes time. Further to that, they won't discuss any actions, and for that matter, anyone who is committing such Fraud wouldn't be using their own Accounts. That's one of the issues that led to them disabling it. It was Whack-A-Mole.
It was a fun Event. Is it perfect? No. The alternative is not having it, and that's a bit extreme. This really feels like more of an argument against who Ranked highest than an issue of Fraud. Are people genuinely concerned about the abuse, or just upset someone Ranked top?
Not sure how anyone could argue against that.
If I had a customer come to me and say hey run this promotion that's easily exploitable and has been proven before I'd tell them to get out..
Who placed first? I havent even looked nor do i really care. This is about fair play if 1 unit was scammed or 400k perm bans. And remove that persons score from allaince gifting event.
Rewards should have been held until a full investigation happened and punishments handed out
Dangling end game changing rewards to commit fraud is an asinine concept to me
Unless the gifting event is an elaborate police sting to crack down on credit fruad then I support this
