I agree OP, but I won't fault the player base for a dev oversight. It's also not affecting my experience with the game at all, but I am also not playing BLU right now, if ever. They've been doing the mmo thing long enough now to know that players will exploit anything that gives an advantage, and if I saw this coming with pre BLU patch notes, the devs should have seen it as well.

However they get the experience points, it is still necessary and important for them to accrue that amount of exp and not be given an option to instantly get there. I believe there are a lot of BLUs running around now @50 with well under half of their skillset learned. I think the devs probably foresaw the exploit and simply did not care because RNGesus is their franchise star player.
