I dont like how sometimes things that are expoilted in the game (not bugs and basic cheating) are used by the MH team to close people. I think a large part of the game is using diversity to maximise your planets chances of winning. There are many loopholes in PA that arent bugs but just shortsighted game design that bright minded individuals expose and use to their gain.
The salvaging thing is quite a good example because it was jumped on by the MH team mid round and people got closed for it. It never benefited the planet who did it and it didnt really destroy the hopes and dreams of the people who were attacking that planet. One night out of 49 will not ruin your round, you were obviously not good enough in the first place (Maniacmagic). As i saw it if you kept attacking people who would salvage everything then you would gradually move up the rankings, as a planet, a galaxy and an alliance. It was not something that should have been removed from the game, it was a tool that could be used to help defend yourself, to remove pointless steals and a god send for all those OCD Zik/Etd players. But now it seems it will be tampered with and changed because some people who were relying on a big teamup to escort them onto someone they had no chance of beating themselves in fair play cried and whined.
This is something the MH team should have stayed out of! Its not multiing, its not racist or offensive and it was NOT cheating, its exploiting a feature that was badly implemented by the PA team that is all.

As stated by the rules:
Deliberate attempts to use bugs/exploits through AND/OR other than through the standard pages
Punishment: Multihunters will contact PA Team. Together they will decide what abuse is and what not, and determine possible punishment if needed.

It clearly indicates here that should situations arise where bugs or loopholes/exploits are discovered, it is up to the PA team and us to together solve the issue at hand, which was done in the salvage situation.
