How can that be anyone elses fault but the devs?
They've created the problem, un-intentionally of course, it's just the nature of development, but any extra time they must spend to clean up their house and correct bugs which have got in is in no way the customers fault.
Not only that, the instant they were discovered they could have spend 60 seconds making a sticky to declare it an exploit.... they did not.. so any extra crap they have to clean up is purly their own responsibility.
Unless of course they have already given up on the idea of making any effort what so ever.
Well, remember that time when insurance worked as 'intended'?
I bet there should be some braincells in anyone's brain that can actually subscribe to this game that PERHAPS a non-stop high value NPC, that can yield you untold riches, might not be intended?
Yes, the bug is not customers fault, but i think there is article somewhere that prohibits of exploiting such phenomena. Ignoring that article and going on regardless, however, is fully on the customers shoulders.
There is way and place to report bugs, and the way syndic did it, in general forums after subtle implications of tech tree completions, is not the way.
It will create jealousy and drama for people who did not manage to profit from this.
Leading to witch hunt.
I think the forum troll of syndics caliber would not make this mistake by accident. He wanted to create drama and maybe got more than he bargained for.
Now, all we can do is speculate of who did what and how much.
