I laughed so hard at your 700 gems and orb comment I nearly wet myself ---

Sirrian said near the top they banned those that exploited it 100 times or over AND spent that ~1000 gems + People are welcome to click a few extra times on these bugs, and five times is a safe number. More than that youā€™re being naughty. ---

these guidelines should have been issued prior to the gem dumping event ---

I openly admit I opened my mail multiple times. So take back the extra mythics I pulled from VIP chests. As far as PvPā€¦ If you play a lot of hours, itā€™s really not that hard to get your pts up there. ---

To reveal my whole response: [quote=ā€œAvianna, post:160, topic:52949, full:trueā€] and it doesnā€™t seem to matter how many times I say I wasnā€™t reading the darn mailā€¦but thanks Maxx for beating the dead horse over and over again [/quote] ---

The player who acquired and spent 70,000 gems is unlikely to have a sufficiently convincing argument. But that other player who claimed they didnā€™t even spend the gems they got, might be able to get their account back. ---

5 people rob a bank 3 of them spend a part and they take off the stolen and go to jail the other 2 do not spend anything, they take away the stolen goods and go home seriously? or all expelled or the gems are taken away from all there can not be 2 different sentences for the same offense ---

I love all these analogies. Hereā€™s the thing, youā€™re aware what you did. End of story. You got caught. Accept the consequences. Move on with your life. Itā€™s not a $100 bill on the sidewalk. Youā€™re not a dog. Itā€™s not a atm. Weā€™re well aware of what we do here. If someone exploited this, they made the decision to do so. Itā€™s a direct slap in the face of the devs. Iā€™m not a white knight for this game at all, but, Jesus. How can you defend these actions. If you hit the button a a extra time or so and stopped because you were aware this isnā€™t what supposed to happen, okay. I get that. We all smash through the mail to get to the game. But, 10, 20, 100, 700 times. Get lost. ---

They all received money they were very obviously not supposed to receive, due to a handling mistake. Those who returned the money after being contacted by the owner didnā€™t commit any offense. Those who went on a spending spree now owe the owner money, and unless they negotiate terms for repaying that money they may have to file bankruptcy. Common legal practice. ---

From the video uploaded to the network, I have long known about the bugs with the lower level of the enemy. I know that this exploit and I do not use it. With the mail, it was understood that something was wrong not immediately, but when it came, after rechecking my guesses, it turned out that I had already gone far. I am not a thief, I am not a cracker, I donā€™t want to deceive anyone and do not pretend to top positions. Above described his situation.

> [@Rockwell](#): > > In the UK, thatā€™s called Theft by Finding and itā€™s a criminal offence. And as a ~~former~~ part of the Commonwealth, Australiaā€™s legal system is probably closely modeled after the UKā€™s. Edit: yes, this is a silly little derail. But it makes for a break from the higher-tension arguments happening around it. Edit again: corrected for accuracy, I think? ---
