1. If (big fat if) the accounts deleted/reset was actually necessary, then the properties on those accounts should have been transferred to Mike or Karbz and auctioned off at a set date.
This guy "HeHe" bought Cashewz's "old castle" from Mulholland and after Cashewz reset his account too, he bought it instantly back.[04:24:18] Cashewz (16){FFFFFF}: ok so hear me out, this is my story
[04:24:29] Cashewz (16){FFFFFF}: i grinded out enough, i went back to buy my castle, but was one bank robbery short
[04:24:31] Cashewz (16){FFFFFF}: i did one bank robbery
[04:24:32] Cashewz (16){FFFFFF}: came back
[04:24:35] Cashewz (16){FFFFFF}: and the bug abuser bought it
[04:24:39] Cashewz (16){FFFFFF}: i was like ah fuck, he beat me to it

2. By reading what went on, my opinion is that the players were harshly punished, considering they never used the exploited cash to buy anything?
Check this out:
[04:25:04] Cashewz (16){FFFFFF}: accounts will be checked
[04:25:09] Cashewz (16){FFFFFF}: and the bug has been reported
I told him to check my logs/transactions etc. to see that the money made from 'that' thing were never used to buy our 8 houses. When we did 'that' thing, that was AFTER we bought everything with 100% legit/grinded money.
Then he punished us because, with his 'manager' experience, he
thought that we bought everything with 'exploit money' - he didn't bother to hear my side of the story completely and/or check the logs from the beginning of the reset.
[04:29:39] Niovie (43){FFFFFF}: @{FFFFFF}Cashewz (16){FFFFFF} are you going to make me sell all of my houses earned by grinding?
[04:29:48] Cashewz (16){FFFFFF}: you did not grind lol
Mike how do you allow such people to be in staff?

3. Isn’t there an infraction system? Why was it not used? And was this an actual bug or just a bad script, there is a difference.
Too be honest, I won't go into details on how to trigger 'that' thing, let's just say it's a bit common and it was always there since the release of the server. We just simply did it because we didn't think it was such a big deal, again, AFTER WE'VE BOUGHT EVERYTHING.

4. Every unique/worthwhile house bought after the great reset needs to be investigated, notice I said every house bought, some people have traded properties and gave their friends assets that were gained in an unfair method.
I am pretty sure most people did a lot worse than we did and didn't get punished because they have 'friends in high places'.

5. Everything needs to be done in front of the community, full transparency.
Bro trust me I wouldn't have gone through all this just to tell a lie. If I thought something was not 100% legit and got caught, I would've accepted it and moved on, it's a game after all.
The punishment for what we've done considering what that 'thing' is, it was very harsh, especially that we've were very transparent with Cashews about it, and never ever tried to hide anything.
You can also see how he kept on switching punishments, rules and things throughout the whole conversation. He first said that we'll get a less harsh punishment, then he decided to reset our accounts because Mikazuki, a member of the wT crew, who again, has a grudge on us, 'advised' him.
As a small thing, since you were talking about the houses that should've been auctioned off, a big part of our old houses are now owned by wT members, *laughing out loud*.
