People who used the exploits really should lose any and all mods, or better even a wipe and/or being locked into solo.
FDev, you just upset a *lot* of people.

Yeah, imagine making a post in the thread admitting you were wrong only to have people still consistently reply and go on about salt and "don't cheat stupid".
I think many people misunderstood what the problem at Quince really was. The bug, if I remember correctly, was that you could visit one of the tourist beacons and it would complete all your passenger sightseeing missions regardless. The 3 stacked scan mission thing was working but only on a per faction basis not on a total number of scan missions accepted. That might have been intentional or not.
I believe that the reason Quince became so popular was because it was so far away from other destinations it had two tourist destinations in the same system so you could do masses of passenger missions in a very short space of time not only gaining you lots of credits but increasing you explorer rank at the same time. Likewise the scan missions. very close by and quick to complete.
There may be more to it than this but that is what I recall.
Do you have anything useful to say or are you just going to spam and completely miss the point?
I swear...
Well this all has been pretty fast moving in here. Perhaps a little confusion is understandable.
On this.
Please for the love of God, support do not try to "do people favours" on this one.
I know you are a decent bunch of people but this is really important for the well being of the game.

Im assuming those lots of unhappy players are the silent majority then? They dont appear to be very well represented here
Close the thread if ye want...news this good will spread like a wildfire and where one gets closed, several more will spring up...they already have and I gotta say. the overall mood appears to contradict the thread title in that almost everyone is very supportive of FD right about now...
Funny that dont ye think? Probably not but rest assured, Im happy and so are a great many others...
On an unrelated topic, I feel offended calling me smart...it took years of substance abuse in the 90s to be this dumb and I take great pride in my stupidity...smart tsk...never been so insulted in all my life I tell ye...
Yall have a nice day now ye hear?

There has literally been one response following your edit. A tad melodramatic?
I am not accusing you of having cheated, you may have got a God roll via pure luck or you may be being presumptive. Either way the cheaters got less than I would have given them - start them from scratch in a sidewinder. Ooh at Beagle Point as well.. I like the idea of that.
Well headlines are important as any journalist will tell you, they set the tone of the article.
All it is is that people don't really give a monkeys if exploiters are upset (aye I know it doesn't say exploiters in the headline).
I wouldn't take it personal.
Welcome to the internet.
Problem is Blaze, folks read the first page or two, then you edit, folk have already read said post(s) so don't read it again, if you had just thought your post through a bit more maybe some replies and your anger could have been avoided.
If only i could do it myself. lol
You can edit your post. That is your right. What you cannot do is expect people to go back and read it again. They will get no notification that its content has changed, so unless they see your subsequent post announcing the change, they have no motivation to return to it.
That's unfortunate but is a fact of life on the forum. The ideal time to consider if your post needs clarification is when you are writing it, not after you've posted it.
Now it so happens that I disagree with you. I disagree with you because I have no objection to Frontier deleting modifications from people who cheated. Yes, even those modules that were rolled legitimately. If people cheated and lost stuff as a consequence I have zero sympathy.
The fact that you run around calling people idiots, ranting that people didn't read a post edit they didn't know existed and claiming that the thread is giving you cancer does not help your cause, but for what its worth I disagree with your point on its own merits.
Ask a moderator to get this thread closed.
(I think it's done by reporting your own thread and explain why you want it to get closed, but I'm not sure about it)
Sorry.. to me with regard to this thread, it doesn't matter much to me if you cheated, or if you are just (for whatever reason) defending the cheaters.
That you just were afraid that your shiny modules will get taken away (although they didn't get yet, why come to this conclusion then?) shows off that you are either not honest with not having cheated or (I see, this is more likely) are just quite naive. It seems you jumped the gun, because you heard friends talking that had friends that surely did not cheat at all, or just very little, but that still got modules removed.. if this was the case, that is just naive.
It is always the same in this games when something like this happens, suddenly the forum/ticket system is full of people who have not cheated but feel their friends got treated unfairly, or have just "almost cheated a very little", or not cheated at all but still got their stuff banned/blocked/removed .. turns out in the end 99%-100% of the cases of punishment are just legitimate, and people can't cope with their own wrongdoings.
Anyway, coming back to my first sentence, still, it doesn't change much whether you have cheated or not, the way you first post tried to defend the cheaters and asked for a more "humane" punishment is just ridiculous, either naive, stupid, or lying .. and yeah, as you call the rest here just idiots I don't care much for choosing my words, too
No, more than one. Unless it takes people several minutes to write an "AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA" post...
Um.
The official statement says that they didn't do this. Don't panic.
Not sure what your problem is? Your edit suggests that you didn't cheat. But you're complaining about something that quite clearly has only affected the cheats. I'm not smart, just confused.
