Similarly, lots of people cutting corners to suck millions of fame points on perpetual endurance races ? what do you call that ? should FM/EA do saomething about it ? It is being considered... It isn't as easy as you might think and may be more expensive to close than it would save.

In the end, that is always the calculus at play with FM/EA. Will it cost more to fix the (bug, hole, exploit, cheat) than it is costing us to let players exploit it.

Also, do not forget, and I actually think you and KeepOnRacing mention the same argument but on different sides of the coin... cheats and exploits for the most part only hurt other players.

If a cheat or an exploit adds costs to FM or reduces revenue, they simply make it up by making future updates more expensive, or they bring new content so quickly, about the only way to keep up is through IAP, as ads don't even seem to be keeping pace (I stopped doing the analysis, so the last statement is based on perception instead of data).
