@YourFriendKyle_ @MLBTheShow Is the bug a mistake they made? Yes.
Is the exploiting of the bug a mistake that players made. Yes

Two wrongs don't make a right

If I leave my front door wide open by mistake that is not justification for people to just walk in and take my stuff.

@filipflyers2899 @MLBTheShow Because it is against the Terms of Service both for SDS and PlayStation. Just because they have not fixed other issues does not exempt anybody from repercussions for breaking other rules.

[Tom Maddox @TomEMaddox]

@UpsetCardsFan @MLBTheShow @MLB @MLBPA @BlueJays Of course there is a difference between unknowingly exploiting a glitch once vs exploiting it over and over again hundreds of times once you discover it.

[Tom Maddox @TomEMaddox]

@DivisionTherapy @MLBTheShow It's pretty easy to tell who did it. The game logs show everything. Dozens, if not hundreds of 0-0 losses to the computer in short order.

@Lowkenuinelyfr @MLBTheShow You could apparently quit out of the final game or something and earn the Championship bundle. People were doing it on the average of every 1-2 minutes and earned thousands of packs.

[Tom Maddox @TomEMaddox]

@Its_Kryptic @MLBTheShow Because the TOS for both the game and PlayStation state that users should not exploit bugs or glitches to gain an unfair advantage. That is exactly what this was.

[Tom Maddox @TomEMaddox]

@StickzNPuck @MLBTheShow Not even close to every single person. The vast majority happened over one night/very early morning.

[Tom Maddox @TomEMaddox]

@SoxSideIrish99 @MLBTheShow They used to supercharge walk-off HRS. I don't think they are doing that this year. He'll get a Topps Now but Probably not until next week. Tomorrow's drop will most likely cover games from Jun 1 to Jun 7 and his HR was just 2 days ago

[Tom Maddox @TomEMaddox]

@DavidWC85 @MLBTheShow I don't think they can bring back WBC mini seasons because they simply put a band-aid on it to stop the bleeding. They did not fix the underlying issue.

[Tom Maddox @TomEMaddox]

@Chief936 @MLBTheShow @MLB @MLBPA 3 cards and he is the 58th player with 3 cards so nothing new.

As for Legends with only 1 I will throw in Stan Musial. Last year he got an 88 and then nothing until a 99 at the end of the year. They may do the same this year.

[Tom Maddox @TomEMaddox]

@MLBTheShow NYY have gotten 16 cards over 8 drops since Detroit last had a card released. That's pretty sad and I am not even a Detroit fan.

[Tom Maddox @TomEMaddox]

@MLBTheShow You know Carlton also had some good years with the Cardinals. 7 to be exact, including a 20 win season, 3 sub 3.00 ERAs and 3 all star appearances. Yet every Carlton card the last 2 years have all been Phillies

[Tom Maddox @TomEMaddox]

@MLBTheShow There have been 5 Steve Carlton Phillies cards in the last 2 years. He did also pitch 7 years in St Louis with a 20 game win season and 3 seasons of sub 3.00 ERA. I don't deny his best cards should be for the Phillies but spread the love a little.

[Tom Maddox @TomEMaddox]

@MarmorisLion @MLBTheShow Technically 30 days. 90 Topps Now Spencer Torkelson dropped on 5/5. But Yeah, Detroit has the current longest drought.

[Tom Maddox @TomEMaddox]

@GPagbilao90396 @Nutzypoo_ttv They can ban you for most anything they want. Exploiting bugs or glitches is prohibited in both SDS' and PlayStations code of conduct. I doubt they ban everyone but they have the right to do so if they wanted.

[Tom Maddox @TomEMaddox]

@1Cookin @DJMartinez06 I don't care one way or the other but it against SDS' and PlayStation's code of conduct to exploit bugs or glitches for an advantage.

[Tom Maddox @TomEMaddox]

@DJMartinez06 Someone who bragged about it posted their PSN name so I looked at their game log and saw 267 0-0 games just today with an average time between games at around 1.5 minutes. Seems like it would be easy for them to find it if they wanted

[Tom Maddox @TomEMaddox]

@AmateurWzrd @Blackhawksguy84 Well, I doubt that people will get banned but it absolutely against both the game's and PlayStation's Code of Conduct.

"Do not use any bugs, glitches, vulnerabilities, or unintentional mechanics in PlayStation products or services to get an advantage."

[Tom Maddox @TomEMaddox]

@MLBTheShow @Dbacks At least the D-backs finally got a card in one of these big drops even if it will be ridiculously expensive. Condolences to the Nationals and Athletics who have been shut out of all 3 recent drops. Apparently neither had good players early in their careers 🙄

[Tom Maddox @TomEMaddox]

@LanceBolton_ @MLBTheShow Power is too high for a 4 HR in the month. Marte would have higher Contact and lower power
