Hypocritically speaking, I think they all should get to keep those rewards and they should make the bug available to everyone. That would resolve all current issues regarding alt farming, precrafting and guild hopping (Forgot the credit crunch aswell). Still keep the gear in the shipments just for show though.
im not usually bothered by exploits, usually they arent so bad, even the 7* vader exploit can only force other players to fight against a 7* vader sometimes, but an exploit of this level is way worse, these people could literally max gear and level every character they own overnight, this is seriously game breaking for arena when some exploiters can have every character in the game levelled and maxed out on gear overnight, so I guess exploits only really bug me when it forces the non exploiters who worked their nuts off to get where they are to have to deal with these people every day for the future of the game. If it doesnt affect other players than I really dont care, but when we all have to deal with the reprecussions of these peoples actions every day in arena then yea that bothers me a lot

That one went over your head, bud. It's a joke - and a pretty good one.
You know good and well that I'm drunk at the lake this weekend blue. Everything I Do and say can be.... well, you know.
its a good thing you didnt get raid rewards than, you might have claimed it more than once, because well, you know, drunk
I don't know why you're grinding this axe. I could be black out drunk and still know right from wrong.
@Salacious_Slug Leef doesn't believe in personal responsibility and has a strong sense of moral relativism that's why Salacious. At least that's the only productive thing I gleaned from my "discussion" with him yesterday. I wouldn't be surprised if he argued it's okay to cheat the system because the system is definitely trying to cheat him. He can't fathom someone not pushing a button if it's right in front of them. No matter how much logic, and rational thought dictates otherwise.
For those wondering, anyone who obtained extra shards for Han Solo during the window where they could get extra Raid rewards and promoted him from 5 star to lets say, 7 star, WILL have their Han Solo bumped back down to 5 star. Gear will also be removed.
And I know some of you are going to ask "But why didn't you do this for the 7 star Vaders running around?". Well guess what, we're going to be going back and bumping those Vaders down as well once we've handled the current issue of the extra Raid rewards.

@BentWookiee so am I allowed by forum rules to keep my side of the bet? Change my profile picture and post whatever Naecabon asks me to write? I'm more than happy to do it providing I won't be punished from the mods. Please let us know

I know. He will tire himself out and crawl away eventually.
I'll be impressed if everything obtained from the exploit is actually taken away from every account, but some people will fall through the cracks for sure, just like with Vader.
I honestly think they should have more of a punishment besides getting the items they exploited taken away. Maybe an additional 2 week ban.

Jist to be clear to @leef i didn't collect a second reward. Now, why not ban the offenders? It's like the MLB steroid situation all over again. No repurcussions. Just an asterisk and 3 day suspension.
What happens to gear they got as rewards that was equipped? The 7* Vader incident showed us they aren't really capable of "reverting" things... Hence why people kept their Vaders.
If people only lose items in their inventory but don't have all of the gear they managed to equip from this reverted, it's pretty awkward!
Awkward indeed.....especially when you say that and there is a person from your guild on my shard/server with a 7* Vader

LMAO - yeahhhh right!!! At the very best they may have employed some competent Devs
They can't. All three places are filled

Why do you even care?eHes probly just gonna show you the amount of gear 10 toons you get with 60 raids vs the amount his mate got with the exploit.
right from wrong is one thing, remembering if you have allready claimed that reward or not is another.
Yup, none on my shard thankfully.
Thanks!

Thanks for the clarification

They can and will do something. That's proven.

Not proven until it happens
