Tracking items bought with exploited currency and or the credits generated from the selling of exploited items beyond the exploiting account becomes orders of magnitude more difficult, significantly more prone to error, as well as delves into ascertaining intent, which is always difficult.



Which is why this type of exploit should never be allowed to exist for any length of time, and why if this were real life (since so many people keep wanting to equate exploiting a video game to stealing in real life), anyone harmed by this exploit could make a claim that Bioware was grossly negligent and therefore liable for damages. I seriously doubt they have the time and resources to do more than run a script to identify exploiting accounts, and remove currency and items from those accounts.Tracking items bought with exploited currency and or the credits generated from the selling of exploited items beyond the exploiting account becomes orders of magnitude more difficult, significantly more prone to error, as well as delves into ascertaining intent, which is always difficult.Which is why this type of exploit should never be allowed to exist for any length of time, and why if this were real life (since so many people keep wanting to equate exploiting a video game to stealing in real life), anyone harmed by this exploit could make a claim that Bioware was grossly negligent and therefore liable for damages.
