I think the admins have made it clear enough that no one is going to be punished for the Warriors "exploit."

The main problem that I see is that they had the opportunity to fix it the first time, back when Traders/EF/TDC were all farming the Lambs/Warriors for levels and raw credit drops a few unis back.

The bandaid solution for that one was to just remove the credit drops/XP. Forgetting to remove augmenter drops was a minor oversight, but once Vacuum scoops were added, that became a problem. And since those teams already had the knowledge of how to do the farming with AFK gunners, they now have the opportunity to yet again exploit the "content" that the devmins forgot about. I'm sure that the person who designed Olympus didn't intend for any of these things to happen, but we have other spawners in other areas that have 0 xp and 0 drop modifiers, like the ambush spawners in UZ.

I just wish it hadn't been happening for so long. The damage to the economy isn't fixable at this stage, we'd have to have a year or 2 rollback. So that won't happen. Players won't be punished, because the admins deemed it to be content. The only possible solution is for people to be more encouraged to report things like this. And for devs to do better testing of the content that is implemented before it gets too out of hand. The blame is shared between the devmin team and the playerbase.

and that is the problem, i decided to not report bugs anymore after i reported a "bug" with brute force. first i reported it, nothing was done for over a year. then i made another report of it. also pointing to the old ticket. admin said it was no bug. half a year later i made a guide of how to "abuse the bug". bobbo said it was a bug and its bug abuse. he locked BF and took his time to change it

first it took admins 3 warnings and many abuses to get it fixed. next to part of them seems to not know what bugs are. even in the bug report section of the tickets

where is the problem? when does THAT get fixed? think thats one of the biggest problems SS have at the moment. for years

They would also need to ban everyone who did the alt levelling in oly as well, since that's most of the mid-endgame player base that were capable (ive seen EF/traders/RE amongst other teams) doing it. actually some people took it to the extreme and used the seer XP aura to make it faster.

Not 1 but can be investigated that deeply because too many people will get punished. SS is far to small.

You can still exploit (omg there's even a tutorial video!!!1!) and easy fix still isn't implemented because fuck logic this is SS!
