Yeah, I strongly disagree with bans resulting from developer oversights. It's almost like entrapment - sell people a game, unintentionally leave them a method to get rich quick, then ban them if they take advantage of it. They don't need to punish them, they should just clean the mess up and leave it at that.
Sorry for the double post. I just had to add this analogy:
It's like beating a kid and then starving them for eating delicious cookies you accidentally left on the table. I mean, seriously... is that kind of reaction really necessary?

People playing online games should know by now that if you do something the developer did not intend for you to do, you will get banned. Now, the people crying about this are either stupid or just have no impulse control. I give props to Kungen, he knows the score. He likes the game and is still playing it instead of throwing a fit like everybody else who feels they shouldn't have to take any personal responsibility at all.
Willful ignorance is not an excuse. People need to stop being apologetic to exploiters. They knew damn well what they were doing was unintended. To data anything otherwise is an insult to everyone's intelligence.
ANet made the best move possible. What's a more fitting punishment for a child who takes something that doesn't belong to them? To just take it alway and ground them? Or to make them return the item and apologize for their behavior? ANet chose the latter.
Getting to play the game agaon by ANets good graces in this case will leave a lasting impression. If ANet had just rolled back those characters, it wouldn't have been as profound a punishment.

If you do something that is against the rules and get caught, then there are penalties. That's how life works. These people who knew that it was against the intended rule set and did it anyway. They got caught and are now paying the penalty.
It's kinda life life. I know robbing people is against the rules. Even though I can do it, I don't want to risk the penalties.
Saying it's OK to break a rule simply because it's possible to break it is, morally speaking, pretty fucking dubious.
