I used it a couple of times just to prove that I could. I also responsibly reported this bug to the staff, and it apparently got patched. And now you say I "used exploits" as though I hacked into the site like Neo and stole everybody's credit card number.

That's definitely an exploitation of a mechanic.

Edit: I also vaguely recall you bragging about this to me at the time, in a way that definitely made it seem a lot more like you reporting a bug, or doing it once or twice.
