They don't take cheating lightly over at Paragon Studios. According to lead designer Matt "Positron" Miller, using certain exploits in the
City of Heroes Mission Architect feature is apt to result in your rewards being deleted, or worse.
"When we created Mission Architect, the goal was to have an outlet for players to craft cool stories, using our assets, that other players could play and participate in. Other players could rate those stories and the best-of-the best would rise to the top," Miller wrote in the
official forums (via
Massively).
"While we have accomplished some of those goals with the initial launch of Mission Architect, some have found ways to abuse the system we put in place. We are not blind to this happening, nor did we not expect it. However, it is time to take action regarding it, so please be aware that we are about to implement a zero-tolerance stance on the extreme abuse we are seeing in the system."
