Isn't there a way for them to scan the scripts and blocks on the Portal builder to catch this stuff? At the very least, persistent servers should get booted after x amount of time if 0 players are on. In my opinion, this is a situation born of junior level infrastructure and network engineering. I have a hard time believing that there aren't enough resources to serve the portal community in full. And if there isn't, how could there be NO foresight into the fact it would get abused without any safeguards in place?
would be great if there was a way but i doubt it EA is more worried about the XP farms if that's the main issue resolve the issue where you don't need to kill 800+ people to get it to level 40 lol. It's tough really people make so many servers and dont close them i think everyone should just have 1-2 servers up so other people can make some. There are many ways to handle that but my guess is they worried about something else.
