Portal xp farms my opinion.
I'll just say it right away... I don't like it. The challenges in the game exist for a reason. And playing these XP farm servers takes away the whole idea of grinding. I agree with most play...

Let's say you're playing a game like Dark Souls. Are you going to complain if the game is too difficult for you and you can't access the final boss?
If a game has any sort of linear progression, there's no reasonable expectation that you should be able to immediately access it, just because you paid for it. If the game chooses to lock progression behind some kind of challenge, then it's up to you whether you're up for that challenge.
When EA advertised portal, they certainly intended for players to get XP when playing the game in a legitimate way. Yet it was used in an exploitative manner. They are fully within their right to ensure that exploits are fixed, even if that means that they have to adjustments.
I'm not sure why you're bringing up court, because that doesn't seem very relevant here. It's mostly a customer satisfaction issue. If they don't introduce a satisfactory solution, they may end up losing a few sales or they may see some people pursuing refunds.
You're chasing your tail, none of any of that means anything to me. I simply want access to the content. They sold me one thing, now I have another. There's nothing illegit about anything ... my money was legit. I tell ya' what ... maybe you PvP guys got it backwards, maybe we PvE guys should get the ability to play the game, and you should not. Why ... why not, your money all of a sudden is not as good as mine. I define "legit" the same way a Court would, I pay for software, I should get that software as portrayed. It's just that simple. They can keep their XP and KD's I doubt most PvE guys really care, but we did pay for something and they probably won't get away with making such a dramatic change in access, it's like selling Cheeseburgers without any Cheese. Stuff like this only happens because the Goof's that make this stuff would not be caught dead playing any of it. That right there is the Root of all Evils in gaming today. If a Cook won't eat what they make, it' probably ain't wise for anybody else to either. EA likes selling games but then gets all Butt-Hurt when someone plays it ... weird.
Maybe your new on earth so i welcome you. You probably pay on a daily, weekly, monthly base for services, products that not are what they actually advertised.
Some of the products or services are even owned or sponsord by people that do things with your money you not agree with.
That said, EA always ads a disclaimer that the content could change over time. We saw this with the Phantom edition skins.
When i played bf3 and 4 i had not much time to play and i just accepted that i did not have all the attachments & unlocks. Even bf1 i had not much time to play so i unlocked 7 years after release all the content.
