This should be pretty clear, it’s an obvious use of the system. While perhaps not ‘intended’ at the outset the system has been balanced to consider it as a regular part of gameplay.
Agreed. I wonder if crafting rocks into stones is still an exploit 
I don’t know why you personally are so adamant about this. Sour grapes I assume or what makes it different from the gleam?
- The minter offered a price.
- The minter paid the offered price.
- People minted stuff.
- Community was unhappy with a price perceived as imbalanced.
- Devs changed the price.
Nobody was manipulating systems or bypassing game mechanics and nothing was other than “As Advertised”. This may have been a developer oversight, it may have been a balancing misjudgement, or it may have been a deliberate move to clear a good amount of stored fuel/spark out of the game.
This is a much more reasonable statement IMO.
You keep posting a video of some team activities as an example of “exploiting” when what you keep complaining about is “botting” and the video you post is an example of “teamwork”.
Perhaps you could post this video instead, it has the same effect on the server:
In any case multi-boxing is an accepted activity since at least the release of the game and spamming regen bombs is normal gameplay at this time. As this thread is likely to go to hundreds of posts another thread to clarify acceptable use of multiple accounts might be a good idea.
The devs have given a definition of botting and that’s a topic for a separate thread it’s a different activity from exploiting, which is generally considered to be manipulation of bugs or unforseen combinations of activities leading to unexpected and/or undocumented results.
Neither selling items to the minter for the displayed price nor manually spamming regen bombs seems to fall into this area at all.
Using reclaim to drag loot home seems to be a gray area and the devs have graciously given us clarity on this one.
