Abuse of the Achievement System

This is still generally frowned upon, yes? I would imagine it moreso now that it's generating credits, but I remember it being brought up when achievements were released that gaming the system specifically for achievement points would not be allowed.

    Hard to answer in the abstract because what people considers "abuse" varies widely.  In general though, if you are generating anything of value in a way that was not the intent of the system, then you are on shaky ground.

    The item in question was cities running arena events that are achievement based and providing players wins (players who in no way would win those events otherwise) - I'm sure there are other ways in which the systems can be gamed, and maybe it's worth looking at the numbers with a reduced playerbase - but the prompt for this particular thread was arena events.

    Arena contests with predetermined winners would generally be a no, but holding a lot of arena tournaments to give people a lot of opportunities would be fine.
