It *is* exploiting a glitch in the system.
This has been discussed a few pages back and seems most people agree with the bans, myself included.
A few people share your opinion though.

Yes
An exploit is an exploit, hopefully with waves of bans people will think twice about doing something like this again. Would you prefer ANet's appraoch or Blizzards 'meh' approach?
Not far off that, except mines a girl. Always remember being asked why I'd want to watch a guys backside all the time while I'm playing these when I was younger and first started on these games back in the days of UO and Asheron's Call, and i've always used girly characters since
Just had a quick skim through that, it is rather funny
One guy was completely ashamed he deleted his Reddit account and post. Lol!
lol you joking right, so you so its OK to cheat, and get just a slight slap, if people cheat they should get a perma ban ,, they deserve it, and more to the point when they don't other people tend to not want to play the game as its ruined by the low life cheats.
That excuse its utter rubbish, did not think it thought but I thought it through enough times to do it 30 times over!
One thing worse that cheats is people like you who apologies for them.

Generally i find people who defend exploiters are the ones exploiting. Trying to morally justify an immoral action is pointless.
Well PCGamer just reported that 3000 accounts were permabanned due to the karma exploit. I don't think it seems harsh, its way OTT for something that was there mistake.
This has nothing to do with real-life situations and morals because at the end of the day it's a game and it's here for fun. A simple rollback would have sufficed.
They seem to have a weird attitude with banning people willy nilly like with bad names and profanity.
Not sure if i'm misunderstanding and your agreeing with me or if your directing that comment at me.
If it is directed at me then you have misread my post or quoted the wrong person!
If its not directed at me then ignore this

I'm agreeing with you and supporting your view point
They should just automatically change the bans to 72-hour suspensions and THEY should be ones making sure the exploiters don't gain anything from it (I'm sure they can remove items/rollback characters)
I'd say they should just delete the character used to exploit, that's a kick in the teeth.
I think thats a very reasonable and even handed approach to the situation. It sends a clear message, only punishes serious exploiters (they didnt mention it in that statement but they only 72hour banned people who bought over 40 and permabanned those who bought over 100) and then gives them a chance to fix the damage they have done to the economy in return for forgiveness.
I think they have handled the problem very well.

Agreed
So people who exploited should make up the top 5% of the wealth, and not those who earn it? Nice logic. This is why Diablo 3's economy was completed ****ed, because people exploited it and Blizzard didn't give a ****, in-game money worth plumetted, and only items had any value.
I'm sorry if you think that the money pumped into the economy via an exploit should stay, but it will only damage the game over time, it needs to be removed, and people should count themselves lucky that ANET are giving only a 72 hour ban and reversing perma bans.
I think what there trying to do is to make the people who exploited realise what they have done by going through these hoops.
A bit like writing lines in school.
I must not exploit!

I personally think its fantastic!
Re the exploits Anet have always been happy to wield ban hammer, when I know this and I barely played gw1. If you use an exploit, curse or use daft names you shouldn't be all butthurt if you get a ban. It's a different approach to the blizzard "we don't care give us your money" approach, Anet seem to car about the rep of their game.
I'm more worried about all this hacking, i'll be logging in for first time today and hope it doesn't start for me. Bit confused why they have closed down password change though, I wanted to change to avoid hacks.

Just monitor your emails, if your getting spammed with password reset emails, just check your account.
Exactly, far to many people have come from WoW where they can say or do what they want without fear of reprisal. I for one hope ANet continue their current stance.
