Well it seems not for the first time FDev have inexplicably messed up by allowing the PWXS into the game before it's time and before the CG ended.
As I don't usually bother with the forums for reasons which will no doubt become obvious with the replies to this post, I was not aware of this mess up.
So of course, like a lot of other people I have been beavering away for 7.5hrs straight on the CG to make the top 25% in the vain hope of acquiring a PWXS for free, in return for my efforts.
I know that usually these modules are 'bought' by giving in AX and/or guardian materials and I wasn't sure if I'd have what was needed or if I'd need to grab some from inside the Maelstrom core.
So I decided to grind for 7 hrs and acquire it that way so I could get the item to use as content for my Sunday livestream. All good.
Then it turns out that Frontier have compounded their error by unbelievably allowing people who acquired this module in return for credits to actually keep them!
What was so bad about removing the item and returning the credits stating that they were made available in error.
This has totally negated people's efforts and time that was put in doing the CG. It disrespects them and diminishes their efforts.
Mistakes happen yes, but this was not corrected properly. FDev know they made a mistake, the admitted it but they let people keep the reward from this exploit.
How is that fair on anyone doing the CG??
I have tried so hard to stay positive with ED when others have not or have jumped ship. But mistakes like this and decisions like this make if very hard for me to stick with it.
Clearly the correct course of action here was to remover the PWXS from people who acquired it via the incorrect means. It completely disses the effort and time people have put in to do it the right way.
If there's a car dealer with a £2000 car and it turns out they advertised it for £20.00 my mistake, do you think they for one moment, they'd say "oh well it was our mistake so you take the car for £20."
I don't think so!
It's enough to deal with all the bugs in the game right now, it is slacking and I have to question the focus of the devs on some of these things.
Things like this don't help and when you compound your error by allowing people to gain from it too... I dunno who's making these decisions, but it's just not right.
Anyway, rant over. I've left a lot of meat on the bone there for potential trolls who can't wait to put me in my place or tell me nobody cares (even though it's not them who I need to care) etc etc.
I've said my piece and I'm seriously losing my grip on this game if the devs can't even be bothered.

Aegis Early Access" as an idea, though really the "I joined Aegis Early Access and all I got was a lousy PWXS" would be my favourite (though I guess it is a lot of text for a decal 
)
