10k Bandit Crests from Mordrem Heart
Should I not spend these? Kind of annoying~
yes, it was the heart.

k. well I still have these bandit crests and no word from anet.
Can this get a response already? Should people spend their badges or are they going to get banned? Considering you people have randomly banned players for similar problems with “abusing” in-game currency in the past, at the very least you could respond.
Spend your badges.
The previous situation was extremely different: karma was readily obtained, so the glitch could be exploited repeatedly. Further, people exploited particular events to generate extra karma. In this case, the Mordrem Heart is only obtained randomly — there is absolutely no way to generate more of them except to keep doing silverwastes events, which involves playing the game (in a way that the historical exploit did not).
And finally, they only banned people who repeatedly used the exploit — even then, if you did it “a few times,” you suffered no consequences. Only a relatively tiny group was affected.
I’m not arguing ANet necessarily handled things gracefully then (or that they shouldn’t respond today). I am saying that if I had a mordrem heart, I would turn it in and spend the badges without fear that ANet would action my account. (On the other hand, if I found a way to get 12 more, I wouldn’t tell any other players and I wouldn’t turn them in.)
did they ever respond to this anywhere? going to just spend them if not.

I’ve not seen any replies here or on Reddit.

I just sent Gaile a message on reddit. I’ll wait a bit more. I’m paranoid about getting banned :x

I’m sure you’ll be fine, although I completely understand your concern. I can explain what they’ve done in the past and how this is different from the times they have banned folks and none of that is as comforting as hearing from ANet directly.
If you do get an answer, please let us know — there were a few folks that got 10k badges from a heart.
still no word. hope she saw my message :c
