So why the !@#$ won't he say anything here?

Anyone else able to confirm if this is legit or not?

Add him on facebook and ask him yourself you you don't believe me. As to why they haven't said anything here, I have no #@$% clue.

EDIT: I finally got an answer. ChrisNo one will be DQed, but some people will use the points they earned with illegal tagsbut game registration, Twitter challenges, etc will not be removed"


So....what does that mean exactly? 

"but some people will use the points they earned with illegal tagsbut "

Is it just me or does that make no sense at all as far as referrals go?

Don't worry about it, guys. I have it all planned out.



We steal the Hammerhead, drive it up to Canada and raid their offices for the goods.



Let's just hope they don't have a water pistol powerful enough to shoot the Hammerhead down.

Thank you Orion, you've been far more helpful than anyone so far, including Chris himself.

Yes perhaps I should have said that too, thanks Orion.

However my inquiry still stands...really that statement is barely anymore helpful that other ones made before. IT says we wont get DQed but it does not clarify what will happen to our referral tokens. 



EDIT: Could it be he meant to say lose and not use ?

"but some people will use the points they earned with illegal tagsbut "

I assumed he meant "some people will lose the points..."

I still don't know why they didn't just come out and say this, whatever though I still want some free swag.

It means that nothing will happen at all. Everyone keeps their tokens and may bid as they will during the auctions.

I'm not sure whether to be happy or remain skeptical. Concerning not being DQ'ed, I'm glad to hear that. But I'm interested by what "some people" means. Possibly those who got over 12,000 tokens using the trick?

Edit: Also thanks for posting Orion. Glad to have some input on the situation.

Maybe because he doesn't even know what the hell is going to happen for sure, so he's afraid to make an official statement? Makes as much sense as anything. Probably the only ones who know for sure are the guys who wrote whatever code they're using to track this !@#$.

Who knows though. It still seems bizare that he wouldn't say anything here, would go a long ways towards helping the situation

You guys realize Chris probably meant "lose" not "use"?

Yeah, I got that. For me it was about people being outright disqualified from being part of the auction. Taking away points earned from the image tag trick but leaving the rest was one of the acceptable options. Levels the playing field.

Depends on what they do. They could just remove all extra clicks gained after the first 50 during the first two days, remove all clicks from these people before the click system was updated or remove all unique clicks from them entirely.

They'll be less outcry from that middle option there, I bet. Either of the others will cause tempers to flare from either respective side of the debate.

Honestly I'm fine if I just lose my 'ill-gotten' tokens. Granted my legit clicks are probably lower b/c I wasn't really trying to work them up as much, but I can't complain too much about that. What I'm hoping they won't do is just zero out my referral clicks altogether, because not all of my tokens there are from the exploit, just most of them.

Now that the auction is underway, it seems like they didn't take away any points.



Of course, that means that those of us who never bothered trying to increase our point total with the referral system (using tricks or doing it 'legit'), don't need to bother with the auction at all.



Does anyone really believe that ANY of the auctions will 'sell' for <=5950 tokens (the amount you can get without referrals or contests)?





BTW, where are the 'official' Bazaar threads/forums located?

We are indeed stripping points from people we find using the exploits. People found using exploits lose all of the points they earned using the exploits.



LOCKDOWN!

wrong they took points away. I had 12K and they took 5K away. Which is BS because I used the image for 2 days. Theres no way in HELL i got 5k clicks on it in 2 days. I was all over other forums with the click referal. 

Bazaar is at top
