DANGEROUS 1 STEP BUG!

I imagine it's a similar bug to this: https://gbatemp.net/threads/xp-bug.505008/
As I recall, there was no actual XP applied, just the notification. Is this the same for you?

I verified this bug with my old tutorial, i could reproduce it but the XP was never applied.

It also seems to be applied to the last thread you made.

Odd, because when I tried it didn't work https://gbatemp.net/threads/xp-bug.505008/#post-7997500

EDIT: wait, I never created a 2nd thread after, maybe that's why I couldn't replicate it

Confirmed bug happens to me editing the AIO PS4 thread, but I get +10 XP for the WIP PSP injections thread

.. however I dont think I actually recieve +10 it just says i do.

There's another way to free infinite XP that I've seen others abuse. Just find as many ROM hacks as you possibly can and upload them to Downloads.

There probably should be some sort of posting or XP-per-day limit to that though, really...

Honestly that guy who jumped to the top should have all his XP taken away

Yeah, seems like he just scoured through romhacking.net and spammed as many crappy ROMhacks onto the download section as possible to get that sweet sweet XP bonus.

@CeeDee @Dionicio3 We are aware of said user and have been looking into it. We are still seeing what we can do about it because it is an abuse of the system.

Here's the best way.

Step one: make a thread
Step two: make content that is entertaining, or helpful.
Step three: Post the thread
Step Four: Let the xp flow because you made wonderful content everyone loves.
