I mean honestly, do you believe that the developers said:

"OK, here's what we're going to do. If we go into a PvP, invite another person to PvP, then hit escape, then go to SvS, find a crew, then hit F2, we'll give the people that figure all of this out unlimited ammo to cheat against the people who pay our salaries!"

I don't know about anyone else, but if I found that to be the case, I would no longer be a paid subscriber, nor would I even play on basic access. I believe that certain sets of code create "ghosts" in the machine that cause these issues and that when found, they will review the code to fix it. Have you sent in the steps to Disney to tell them about this?
I must side with Rackat, this just is not likely the case at all.

If this was the case, they would be in breach of thier very own contract they have with us as end users. Disney would have a huge class action lawsuit brought against them. I for one would want no less than a refund of ALL subscription fees paid, plus i'd want some compensation for my time. Disney would end up settling and not going to court to lose thier shirts.

Unfortunately I think their attempts at solving some of the problems misfired because they failed to understand the problem. We called it the Skeleton or Undead glitch.. they fixed that, but not the "unlimited ammo if you do the glitch" part. Alot on thier plate, and most screaming for new content. Tough decisions.
Although I want more content badly, i'd prefer they fix the "cheat" glitchs first.

Reference to cheat codes in games, etc was made, and I thought I would make a comment on that. Ok, cheat codes, and performing these glitchs are two different things, and are barely comparable except perhaps for an outcome.

If im the progammer and I can program the code /time (ie an admin command), i could put in /superman godmode or some silly thing and make it happen automatically. I wouldnt bother to put in a cheat code for me that was click here tap this, run over there, do a circle.. (ok getting carried away, but I think you get my point).
