GGG: Please permanently ban all those who exploited instance dupe/Temporalis/craft abuse

The big question here is: why do you care?

I can’t speak for others but for me personally it would come down to integrity and whether or not the developers care enough about the product they build to stick up for it. I don’t care even a little bit about the ones committing the wrongdoings but I do care a lot about how the leaders respond in situations like these.

I meant permanently ban them from PoE1 and 2, and never let them create an account. I guess you're not familiar with the situation if you're taking it lightly.

I don't think it really matters, all these chars will be segregated from the standard realm on launch. Yeah the economy is fucked, but you honestly shouldn't be trying to accrue currency on beta servers.

you're talking like BOT!
Where did you see the words BETA test? Did someone from GGG write that? Or is that just a convenient excuse?!

Stop these stupid boilerplate excuses.

I'm new to PoE, so does GGG often perma-ban cheaters, or is their policy like temporary bans and warnings like 99% of game companies?

Don't know about cheaters, but they have been known to ban people for life.

This is EA and it doesn't matter. I would argue that this is a game and it shouldn't matter what other players are doing anyway, but that's obviously not true in this particular case, as this is a full-time job for many top players/streamers/bots.

Duping, or things that in a roundabout way dupe like this extra instance bug, tends to be a hard line ban from GGG.

Bug abuse that doesn't damage the entire economy is a different story. Some shorter bans, some no bans. Duping is a big deal though especially when you're doing it hundreds of times and destroying the in game economy. Temporalis went from 200+ div to 30

I somewhat agree, but the same could be said for the "dupers" who made 50 mirrors effectively duping Temporalis attempts.
That said, it's good that Temporalis sees some use. It really sucks that the only fun unique in the game is gated behind a hitless Sanctum.

i second this.
and wipe the league.
we have over 600 temporalis for sale at this moment, your 'fix' fixed exactly nothing. you should have just emergency disabled sekhemas till monday or whenever your seniors will be back in office, since it's quite easy to get new instances of the door to sanctum without control clicking the waypoint anyways. did not take me 5 minutes to figure one out...
