...using AUR to boost EOM SP bonuses?
I haven't played in maybe a year or more (regrettably), but I think I remember hearing something about a stealth partial SP wipe within an update Fall of 2015, maybe Summer. I assumed the two were connected, but never dug in to gain context. Or if I am completely off base and someone knows what update I am thinking of, please educate me. I am genuinely curious.

They did I think.
Even if they didn't, that no longer matters.

I'm just curious if that was the update, or if not what was that particular update for? I was out of game during all of that and now that the dust has settled, I'm interesting in filling some holes that I missed. I love stories and context :)

If you're referring to instant boosting multiple times in the "Last Battle" tab, then yeah I'm pretty sure that kept working for a while. I've only done it twice I believe, the first shortly after it was added and the second several months afterwards. There were a few mysterious hotfixes here and there, so it may have been fixed somewhere on the timeline. I just know it was still a thing for quite a while.
You'd think it's something they'd jump on right away, being able to grab 20k+ SP with 400 AUR as many times as your stash allows. Either it flew under the radar or they didn't particularly mind since it required money.

It's a bug that meant you spent more aurum, I don't think they were in any hurry to fix it

Yep they fixed it. You most certainly can not boost your SP multiple times any more.

The Merc Quarters battle report instant boosting was indeed never fixed.
CCP "did not regard it as an exploit".
However, a certain bug in February 2015 caused players to get their weekly cap (roughly 750k SP) in a single battle.
In that case each reboosting got you almost a MILLION SP!
(sure the 4x mode gave 3M but the 1x was more cost effective as it was repeatable although few people used it several times as the UI did not show any SP increase until the next session change)
In August 2015, six months later, CCP deemed the merc quarter boosting in that particular case an exploit, and removed all extra SP gained from that multi-million case.
I know because I tested it slightly and those 6-10M were removed while receiving a mail from Game Masters.
(working until the last fix of May 30th, that is =PPPP )
Sour level over 9000.

Hey. That was exactly what I was looking for. Thanks. Yeah, I saw talk of that sp rollback but couldn't connect the dots with just my assumptions. That makes sense now.
Much appreciated!
