FDev - mining with SLF still works and there should be punishment for those who abuse it.

As does title say there is this "exploit" what people use for mining. This video explains all:

And with that note there should be some serious implications of people abusing this method.
You took away all the money made with Rockforth Fertiliser and it was clearly exploit you should do the same for those people who abused the SLF method.

Please think of it, if you let this slip then you should rollback all the money you took away from people using Rockforth Fertiliser method too.
What you should never do, people who exploit should get their money removed - right thing to do.

Tips my hat o) someone aught mention this. And if something's done ie a rollback for those taking advantage of it then we can go mining with a clear conscience. But I'll avoid borann ll or lll for now

First of all: why tho?
It's not like rich people affect your gameplay experience..
Balancing is important sure, but what happens right now only destroys one thing: the longevity of the game for the peeps who do the exploit.

Second: Do you have any idea what happens if u punish 1/3 of ur customer base for an exploit,
that you as a company ignored for 2 weeks and didn't manage to patch at all?

And how do u get your grade 5 manufactured materials again? or ur data?

Yup but that being said something has to be done. And more so those partaking should be punished or we all just go do it and other exploits that appear. Where does it end.
Should be clear cut. Exploit and your in deep doodoo

why? we're not school children who need to get punished to "learn" something.
Instead game companies should consider testing their products more thoroughly

it is a game after all...

Why not , it was fair to punish people who lost their money using Fertilizer exploit and it is not fair to punish people who use this exploit ? Where is the logic now.
Still there should be 0 tolerance if someone is abusing something what is not really intended from developers.

Nobody should worry much, just loss would be via credits what is all easy to get back. It is just matter of point and fair play.

As far as I am aware, FD have never punished a credit exploit. And really, credits are so abundant that it doesn't matter in the slightest.

Rockforth Fertiliser exploit was really well handled by FDev rolling back the credits and I feel they should do same here too.

Pretty much this. If credits were hard to come by in the frist place, than maybe maybe I'd agree they should do something about it. But everybody and their uncle can get rich in no time anyway. Wanting to see those who use this method be punsihed comes across as a bit childish to be honest.

Sry i didnt get ur argument.. "why not".. is that it?
Roll back credits by 2 weeks?
You think "nobody should worry much" when u consider a rollback?

It's not like players created the problem by hacking..the opportunity was provided by fdev.

So again.. why do u wanna punish peeps?

And again: do u reset HGEs for materials? do u reset Jameson for data?
