because "very young woman" =/= "child".
just because something isn't forbidden, it doesnt mean its right.

In b4 exploit: the cutter leaves the station and re-enters, dropping off 10T of cargo each time. Still going to be doing it a lot quicker than the small ship.....
Double dang ! So the CGs will be full of Cutters and T9s wheeling and turning at the slot
Yes, I was being selective.
By that definition, 'gaming the system', even though legal and using intended play is an exploit.
Are you a lawyer in your spare time?
You and Babelfisch identified I didn't follow through with the rest of the sentence in that Wiki definition.
Right. What about the 10-15mil missions? FD I'm sure has an idea but doesn't want to say I guess. It will ruin the surprise.
We'll get a message from them that says
"Surprise!! Half your credits are gone! Btw have you seen the new items you can buy in the Frontier store?"
Not sure if you are serious...
No, I quite clearly said that it must be *not* intended in order to be an exploit
It should be simple, the Devs say it is, therefore it is.
However, sometimes, the devs have to figure things out and check stuff, are not aware, or aren't really very interested because they are interested in more exciting things.
For instance, the now infamous grade 5 mods, using grade 1 materials.
Clear cut, but, Frontier didn't explicitly state it was an exploit until a good while after it existed.
Less clear cut things are when frontier has it's own ideas of in game progession, and they don't realise there are methods to circumvent their design (unintended) to bypass the intented behaviour, however, no bugs are used.
Such as when players find a particularly lucrative method of gaining credits/rep/rank/BGS influence, which frontier were unaware was possible, AND which may take considerable development time to fully "solve"
Frontier might leave it around unless it's completely nuts (missions directly granting quadrillions in one go) but it's not the design they intended.
