FYI, we screwed up, the Probation User Group permissions were not set correctly. We have corrected this issue. Our bad, so users who were stuck on probation got a little bonus time on us. Merry Christmas!
Some people who were on probation but 'came off' from it via this glitch have displayed that they can be trusted to be normal users. Is there any chance they'll be given some leeway?

How was I supposed to know it was a glitch? I was given vague wording on my probation that basically just meant "it'll be over whenever we feel like it", and after almost exactly a month it was over. Nobody told me that I should've been on or off probation.
If I was probated for 3 months and it ended after only 1, a few alarms would have gone off.
This makes no sence for the people that were in probation and didn't go out of bounds to give them more time because the admins screwed up.
That Is like forgetting to lock a prison door but the prisoner still stays... And then you add more time to him!?!? Just because he didn't report it or try to test the lock???

Or maybe instead of making pointless assumptions you could just extend the probation of only those you found exploiting the glitch and leave the rest without further (and unfounded) punishments. Just an idea.

yeah so you don't actually have anything to refute my point
