I'd say that the kind of people who would exploit an obvious error so quickly and casually might not exactly be the kind of people who you want to be playing with anyway.
Personally, I'd be tempted to quit if these players were allowed to keep even a portion of their ill-gotten gains (or if they've gained any kind of advantage whatsoever from it).
Pick your poison CPP:
Do you risk losing a bunch of players who willfully and knowingly exploited your mistake, or do you risk losing honest, legitimate players who are put at a disadvantage by these same exploiters?
How CPP deals with this situation will send a loud message to the entire player base that either
a) cheating/glitching/exploiting will NOT be tolerated, or
b) that scamming the system out of millions of ISK (that is supposed to take months, if not YEARS to earn legitimately) is "fair game" and, at worst, will result in a minor slap on the wrist. |

I'm a little disappointed that I haven't seen a single "my little brother spent my ISK, it wasn't my fault!" post yet.  |

Like your supposed to pay attention to your wallet in that detail... really? I got 300mil back when the official build came out, which seemed in line with the assets that got sold. Now they seem to think I don't deserve that 300mil for my **** that they sold?
You "deserve" to have exactly the same total assets (ISK + value of gear) that you had prior to the glitch, no more, no less.
If you think you have less, submit a support ticket and, hopefully, CCP will rectify it.
However, IF (like some people did) you used that 300 mil to buy gear, then no, you don't ALSO deserve the cash, because you've got 300 mil worth of gear instead.
People shouldn't be losing money because of CCP's mistake, but they don't deserve to profit from it either. |
