Figure that if they banned the accounts and people who were banned asked Apple for refunds (and we have seen that refunds are being handed out by Apple like candy on Halloween), they would get them. If, say, 1000 people used the exploit and spent even $50 or $100 on the event, that would be a fair bit of cash to give up.

So, Mobage decides to hedge their bets and just suspend these players in an effort to protect profits. It's all about the bottom line. I doubt Mobage will ban the accounts, and even if they did, I doubt it would be all of them, just the top X accounts that benefited from the exploit.

So, if you do find a hack, you don't use it just yourself, you have to spread it around to lots of people, then you just get suspended. If you're a lone wolf you get banned. I disagree Sy

As Mobage has to watch is the amount of players that are going to demand a refund from Google / Apple if they do not they ban the cheaters, because no honest player will want to compete as a disadvantage, and as Mobage not properly punished cheaters these players have every right to compensation

If jerry aims to compare with Wardeal and demand to be compensated for Google / Apple being himself  caught for hacking a product protected by laws of private property laws and commercial laws, of a private company that in theirs owns terms of use  prohibits such actions, the will not only be demonstrating how wrong he is if not also how stupid he is! Wardeal had a honest reason to ask for been refunded, jerry doesn't.
