Well, on psn they told me some ppls got banned 1 week cuz the exploit, not perma, but ofc am not 100% sure.
Hope i am wrong again (like when i said nothing was gonna happen) and that the bans are perma.
I hope the ban is permanent. You need to play less, do more work.
Iām not playing the game again anymore because it was not against the rules period thereās no rule against claiming mail they sent you I donāt care how many times you done it no rule against period.
Clearly says event key change. If the devs were going to send further mail they wouldnāt send 100+ with gems in everyone one of them they would have told you to check the forums for more information. The devs have never and will never give away thousands of gems.

Ok, Iāve been awake for almost 24 hours so math skills arenāt sharp. I do know that I nearly felt harassed by all the notifications so perhaps it was that often. The frequency of it all is what finally made me stop and really look at what was happening. Once I realized what was happening I talked to my guild/GM and my brother - showing them what was happening. I asked for their advice and not more than what I think was 3-5 minutes the glitch was fixed.
It is what it is at this point. I will wait for whatever response they provide to my ticket. At any rate, I think Iām done with GoW. So much brouhaha over a mistake by both developers and player base. I donāt want to experience this again.
still not against any rules to claim it .completely their mistake.
Congrats,youāre a thief and youāre ok with it. No one wants to play with people like you anyway. You knew what you were doing was an exploit. Sorry but you took advantage of the game,and got caught.

It was still very clearly an exploit that you abused. As for you not playing the game again Iām happy with that. I donāt want cheaters on the leaderboards anyway.

lol 
In the leaderboards, teams playing from one account and not players receiving gift diamonds from the server.
I want 700 gems and a orb of power for winning the event
I got the extra 10 gems twice. Without realizing it. Should I be banned for a developer mistake? I didānt spend any gems, but that was only because I didānt need to increase my Archer level during yesterdayās. Event.
I also didānt get a pet one or two short of upgrading, so I didānt use any gems there either.
However, if either of those things were different, i would have spent gems & you hardliners here would have had me banned. Several people have stated if anyone exploited it at all, then a ban was appropriate. Shame. On. You. Rollbacks have been done before & should have been done here.

Wait so the message is:
āWeāre taking a strong stance and banning the people who obviously exploited an obvious bug. Weāre also letting them plead their case to support and will unban some of them.ā

and it doesnāt seem to matter how many times I say I wasnāt reading the darn mailā¦but thanks Maxx for beating the dead horse over and over again
I think (but not sure) they drew a line at 50 gems. Some people knowingly exploited it past that point, others did not, so they are going through it, case by case.
I mustāve been doing the exploit incorrectly, as every time I went to open the mailbox, I received yet another bill. 
Oh, you meant in the game. Nvm.
(Iām still gonna tell the creditors that the devs and cheating player base are to blame for my debt. Iāll keep you posted.

Iāve had more fun arguing in this thread than I ever had playing the game. But the fact is maybe people shouldnāt have done it but it absolutely was not against any rules call it what ever you want. I absolutely do not take anything from anyone in real life a thief I am not .But if million dollars washes up on the beach I donāt know who it belongs to Iām absolutely taking it and so would any of you morale marauders sticking up for justice this games economy is already so broken it done little harm if any.And I say it wasnāt a cheat or exploit it was a mistake on the developerās end they should have took the gems people had left issues a warning and moved on .All this ban wave has done is further highlight the developerās incompetence which is what started this mess in the first place if they do their job this never happens do they not test these things. itās not like you had to do anything special any sort of trick nothing like that just open your mail.
Youāre welcome.
