First of all you are screwing over everyone who has got Malak but not on 7 stars. Those who have him on 7* get currency, we get nothing.
Secondly probably many people have invested gear that won’t be restored. I have really struggled the first time around. The light sight part of the event really sucks balls and so I put on quite some additional gear. I even invested some crystals for gear for characters I hardly use.
Thirdly It took me quite some time to beat the event again. And now all I get for that is 250 crystals? That doesn’t recompense my investment at all.
Quit screwing up CG and when you do screw up as big as this one you really need to give out bigger recompensation!

2nd: They clearly said that all gear that you got from exploiting the bug and putting on your ill-gotten 7* Malak will be returned to your account.
3rd: You've got only yourself to blame for wasting your time trying to get shards you didn't deserve and that were obviously a mistake. The event was supposed to be 3 days, so why did you waste so much time right after it launched trying to get those shard? I'm gonna assume that you knew it was a mistake and you were trying to get them before they cancelled the event in hopes that they'd let you keep them.
I hope you've learned your lesson that when something seems too good to be true that it's just that "too good to be true".
If you unlocked him this time you get to keep him, CG clearly says that in their post.
The only people that are still complaining are those that tried to exploit the bug and get 57k worth of GET shards for free while the rest of us saved for months to get those shards. Or some that are confused like yourself that think they are gonna take your newly unlocked Malak away.
thing is have not unlocked.. I would have him today if the event was still up.
Oh, didn't realize you only did half the event. In you're case I'm not sure what they'll do. Most likely they'll take those those shards and you'll have to replay the event next week when they put it back out.
I'm truly sorry for you cause that sucks. You definitely have a right to be concerned. But I'd just hold tight for a few days and wait to see how things shake out before worrying too much about it.
Relax, he'll come back in a few days and you'll be able to do the event. So your money definitely doesn't go to waste. It's not like they cancelled it completely and forever. You'll just get him a little later, that's it.
No it was not obvious it’s a bug. I didn’t think CG was that stupid.
So refund it. Simple.
Thanks in advance
Everyone should get the crystals and shard shop currency PERIOD. This was a bug and everyone should get the same compensation for it. It would be no different than if any other previously completed event popped back up. If the EP, GMY, CLS, BB-8, JTR, R2-D2, C-3P0, Chewbacca, Thrawn, JKR, DR, or Padmè event popped up and allowed you to complete it again for shards, you would know it was a mistake. So why would anyone think that it isn't a mistake that you were able to do the Malak event again and earn extra shards.
There fair bit different mags vs all them toons lol..
It was not unreasonable for anyone to assume after all their talk about helping newer players to catch up, alleviating the gear bottlenecks on older gear and wanting players to enjoy and feel rewarded for replaying content that this was an intentional design. Throw in that it took them over 10 hours to even acknowledge that it was going on and it's absolutely ridiculous for them to then be punishing certain players based on their progress in the game (the very players who their bug was most rewarding to are the ones being punished, how's that for a dog move) and to be calling what was the best move they've made in a year a "bug".
Cowards.
Screwed
It’s not a bait and switch. On the rewards tab it clearly only indicated shards for first time completion. Shards were mistakenly awarded for second time completion.
It’s not false advertising.
Greedy or dishonest players tried to exploit an obvious mistake, hoping they’d get away with it. Isn’t going to work.
****. I clicked on the rewards tab and it showed Malak shards. I didn't have anything that said first time completion.
It was there. You didn't pay close enough attention.
Yes I did. It was glitched.
The rewards tab clearly indicated the shards were the reward for completing the event the 1st time.
Again, you're not reading.
Mine definitely did not. I read it perfectly fine and am disagreeing with you. All mine had was possible rewards and a picture of Malak shards.

This is why we can’t have nice things. Posters who are either flat out lying, or totally ignorant.
It was there. You just missed it or didn’t bother reading it.
