Imagine banning people because you designed a shitty mechanic, didn’t think through the consequences and didn’t bother testing it properly.
As of today, it turns out players are getting banned for using game mechanics — literally for playing the game. No one who took advantage of this should be held responsible for your design failure or the time it took you to fix it (the mechanic (IT WAS NOT A BUG) was publicly known for over 15 hours when you finally "fixed" it) — and on top of that, you were deleting posts to keep it quiet.
None of the people involved were doing anything weird, using any glitches (like with ultimatum), or running third-party software — they were just playing the game as you made it. So tell me — why should they get banned for your screw-up?
Ha-ha-ha. This is a prime example of not taking responsibility for your own actions.
"Hey, I stole your TV, because you left the door open, not my fault"
The only thing that is better than cheaters getting banned is them being butthurt about getting banned for ruining the economy.
You really need to have room temperature IQ to think "oh crap, infinite rerolls, that's the way it was intended."
As far as I know, nobody stole anything. Some players who took advantage of this found a unique tablet and used it together with a few rare ones to get that effect. That's it. Why should anyone be held responsible for crappy design?
If the law didn't have any punishment for theft and someone stole something — would they still deserve to be punished just because you think they should be?
That's not how logic works. No one broke any existing rule, exploited a bug or used third-party software — they simply used a game mechanic that was poorly designed and went untested.

so reducing the reroll cost to like 100 or 10 would be fine? how many rerolls should you have with reroll any number of times in your opinion? what wouldn't feel like an exploit?

Yeah, noone cares if it was intended or not, they messed up with lack of any QA. Killing pinnacle bosses in a few seconds also wasn't intended, so according to that logic, they should've banned half of the player base for playing broken builds.

Correction: you have to have room temperature IQ to think it was not intended when the description of the tablet says "can reroll favours at ritual altars in your maps any number of times".

The Freedom of Faith Unique Tablet now has "Can Reroll Favours at Ritual Altars in your Maps twice as many times" (from being able to reroll them infinitely). This affects existing versions of the item, as well as existing maps influenced by this tablet. This change is in the wake of an item exploit that was occurring, the exploit was fixed approximately 8 hours ago preventing any further abuse and we are currently in the process of banning those who abused it and removing the wealth generated by it from the economy.
the item said->
"
18 maps in range contain ritual altars
favours at ritual altars in area costs 14% increased tribute
can reroll favours at ritual altars in your maps any number of times
Really, ggg are going to ban pp for use a mechanic that they give?
Oh ok was abusive, nice its a EA, was your fail no the player (those who paid to test the game)
There's something funny about banning players in a beta test for... beta testing.

im about 70% confident a class action lawsuit to recover funds and damages if you get banned for a very clear use of math that the devs are too stupid to do, would work here, these might be the single dumbest bans in gaming history.
They can ban you for no reason, dude. Its not your account but theirs lol
