Is this one of those false equivalency straw man arguments? "See, you cheated, so it's OK that I did too."
Well, guess what, I've never used any exploits in this game. Roll credits back? I'd be fine with it. The mod exploit is a bigger deal though in my opinion, since it gives players a clear unfair advantage over others and the mods aren't something you can just go out and buy in the game.
I'm getting to the point now where I could reasonably afford buying and A rating any ship in the game, if I felt like doing that sort of thing. It would take me many years worth of playing to get maxed out Engineer mods doing nothing else in the game and it isn't something I would naturally progress toward just by playing the game normally.
The vast majority of my credits in the game have come from me turning in exploration data over the past two years, and without neutron star field farming (technically an exploit in my mind, but a condoned/sanctioned one – assuming their generation isn't intentional) nor cherry picking ELWs (fair play, but bad form), by the way.
Sorry if my standards are too high.
