Can you quote where he said it was a "Bug" or and "exploit"

Maybe you read something we all didn't.

I recall "we didn't expect it to be used this way"

Remind you of anything?

Ninja FFXI?
i just read it

no where in the post does it say the mechanic isnt working as intended

what they are saying is there is an issue with people "AFK"ing during it

now that i can see as an issue, and in its own way "illegal" play

you cant be afk and benefit from it, thats obviously not how its supposed to work

but no where in it does he say they misprogrammed it
It doesnt say its a bug, it says not working how they thought (People AOEing).

Its like FFXI Ninja did not work as how they intended.
Really guys?

He specifically says that the limiting of exp with a higher level player in the party is not working. The translation is literally "not working as intended." Which means bugged. Which means exploit.

Just cause you like the exp doesn't mean you can suddenly convince me I can't read lol.
