Commission Points are UNCAPPED (long live sales)

Sorry about that. Obviously, we fucked up.

For those that don't know what I'm talking about: we previously capped Commission for upvotes at 40 yesterday.

We did that for a good reason: there were a bunch of spammers who kept trying to come in and run scripts to get thousands of upvotes in minutes, redeem gift cards, then delete their account and move to non-extradition country.

We blocked most of them. A few of them got through and stole a bunch of money from the War Room. SAD!

So we set a cap on upvote commission until we could resolve the issue with spam detection / anti-scripting software etc. Then like a bunch of idiots, set that cap low enough that it would actually affect your experience in the WR. BAD!

To those affected, sorry. We are retroactively adding every commission point you should have earned, uncapped.

The cap is now set high enough (in the thousands per 24 hours) that it won't affect any human user.

Lastly, I would rather eat a bunch of rusted nails than cap commission on sales reps. Sorry we fucked up. Thanks for bringing to my attention. It's fixed, move forth and prosper.

Everything should be working as expected again. Points should've been restored, as well. Sorry for the confusion and inconvenience. We will do better.

Thank you! I was watching the accounts come in, send a bunch of invites, not participate and hit the leaderboard with 0 posts. I was wondering how you were going to handle that. Appreciate the update.
