This post is to show all my indignation and that of many other managers who had their money, parts and engines stolen.
Yes, stolen is the right word.

Why is IGP Manager punishing us for their mistake?

Many players had their accounts practically zeroed after the last changes. The allegation is that several managers took advantage of a loophole in the daily bonus.


Yes I admit, I got around 3 daily prizes a day, but at no time did I do anything illegal, didn't hack, cheat, steal data from other players or similar.

If there was such a breach, the IGP Manager is entirely to blame. When you have a loophole, it's obvious that people will find out how it works. I eat so many, I discovered by chance.

Now the IGP Manager Administrators have punished numerous players for a failure, or rather for a loophole left in the system.

Where is the testing team to check this? Where is the requirements survey and use case studies?
It was a stupid thing to be discovered and no wonder, hundreds of managers took more than one prize.

Brawn GP in 2009 discovered a loophole in the regulation and from that developed the double diffuser. The team was not punished, but the FIA learned to make better regulations and without so many loopholes.

So the IGP Manager ADMs should not punish those who discovered this loopholes, but rather improve the team's development and testing process.

Now on my main account, I have 0 parts, 0 engines and I owe almost 150 thousand. Since long before discovering the breach I had 200 pieces and almost 100 thousand in cash. It practically killed my account.

It's a total injustice. Again I repeat, managers do not have to be punished for a (primary) error of the IGP Manager. It's unfair. It's disrespectful and it's humiliating.

Many who have been harmed will leave the game. Several Leagues barely support Elite with more than 8 managers. Pro and Recruta are always deserted.

THINK WELL, BECAUSE THE MISTAKE WAS YOURS

I doubt the devs will take back more than was originally 'stolen'. I also doubt player will leave the game for being caught.

This is simply a rant.

So you think you are smart because you did like brawn gp? Lol no way, you didn't respect terms of service of igp so you are more like a dumb... 


Terms of service quote:
"... The Code of Conduct is not meant to be exhaustive, and iGP Games reserves the right to modify this Code of Conduct at any time, as well as take appropriate disciplinary measures including Account termination and deletion to protect the integrity and spirit of the Intellectual Properties, regardless of whether a specific behaviour is listed here as prohibited. The following are examples of behaviour that warrant disciplinary measures:... 
... Participating in any action which, in the sole and exclusive judgement of iGP Games, "exploits" an undocumented aspect of the Game in order to secure an unfair advantage over other users... "

And you are two times dumb because the advantage taken from that exploit is useless unless you are low level player, you did this post with a 0 race account so probably you have others account that exploited this thing...

It was a simple transaction reversal. We were extremely lenient, even generous. We let you keep Ideal Setups and Level XP gained through this loophole. You have me to thank for that leniency, by the way, others felt banning the accounts was a more suitable punishment. I overruled that and spent my time on the weekend reversing the transactions of parts, engines and investments instead. It was a more than fair resolution, and if there was any sense this thread would contain an apology and thank you. It shouldn't require explaining, but for anyone else that feels the same way...

That's not a good analogy. Brawn GP worked within a valid interpretation of the rules to make their car go faster where that's the explicit aim, understood by the rule makers. Nobody understands the aim of iGP Manager to be withdrawing multiple 'Daily Rewards'. It's obvious that the intention is that you get one per day (they are literally labelled Day 1 etc.). Any attempt to get more is knowingly breaching the most explicit of rules understood by everyone.

A better analogy would be if an F1 Team discovered a way to withdraw its share of prize money or TV revenues repeatedly from the organiser. Rather than informing them, it tells nobody and withdraws its prize money again and again, hoping it doesn't get caught. It would be justice, not injustice, if the governing body reversed those transactions. It would also be extremely generous if the governing body didn't issue any penalties on top of reversing those transactions.

This was not a punishment, simply a restoration back to the same situation as everyone else, to one daily reward per day.

If there is an injustice here it is demanding higher levels of service while draining us of the resources required to provide it.

Anyone that utilised this may need to wait 1 week for Daily Rewards to become available again. There is a strict limit on how many can be redeemed per day/per week, and those who are still over that limit need to wait a few days to come back in to sync.
