Have you even checked the amount of EXP earned in the last 30 days in search and desteroy? Yeah I guess the numbers would be pretty shocking huh
You need to test the exp rates yourself with let's say, 16 GM's with 4 or 3 vvip ak's each. Simply nade yourselves (one team at a time) till round 12 then let the other GM's do it till round 13. Then you will see what the real issue here is rather than a bug that works less than half the time.
Capping the amount of ak's that give a boost to everyone would be a good start, but I guess since this is purley a vvip farm the devs won't care about it? Seems as if they did not care about the suggestions I gave them -

We hope that this will fix the EXP bug. Once everything is in order we will look at the database numbers and be removing the excessive amounts of EXP players have achieved by exploiting the bug.
Good, Thank you GM.. made me smile^_^ -

They are not looking at how much exp you get during a long period of time. They are only looking at who got tens of thousands of exp per game. -

Using the gun regularly, even in rooms with a lot of other users have VIP weapons, even in rooms where you are purposely farming with your friends will not achieve the EXP numbers some players were getting with this glitch.
We have seen upwards of 80,000 EXP being awarded in a single match.
Because of the amount of steps required, and the specific nature of the bug it is very easy for us to look at all games on the clan server, look at all EXP totals awarded above a certain amount and then remove all that EXP and reset people's ranks.
Since the bug was introduced in the May update we're going to back a month and remove these extreme totals. There are a few cases where this might have happened accidentally and those totals will remain untouched.
We recognize that the bug should not have existed, or gotten past our testing. And that EXP Farming does not necessarily impact the every-day-lives of other players. So for this we will not be specifically banning users for exploiting. However we want to maintain the integrity of the players who have achieved high ranks by actually playing the game, and not exploiting this bug. So those players will have their EXP totals adjusted.
Once we've done that then we will look at the impact on the clan ladder as well as potential bugged GP totals and make adjustments where necessary. Our priority at the moment is EXP however.
And with that, I'm going to close this thread up as our maintenance is done for tonight. We have not detected any extreme EXP amounts being handed out after the update. We'll be monitoring the service and databases throughout the night but we want to encourage players to get in and enjoy the game!
