Josh Ling @ Adopt Me!

To all the players who broke the rules and abused a recent housing exploit to generate Bucks illegally, you have been banned. If you thought you were being clever by using an alt: we track that and your main account has been completely wiped too. Stay safe, don't use exploits!

This exploit had nothing to do with 'families' like some people are suggesting, we've separately added a cap to that because it goes against the spirit of the game. This ban wave was for a separate housing related exploit, which we can detect with 100% accuracy

Hi Josh What does this refer to? - "we've separately added a cap to that because it goes against the spirit of the game"-

We capped the number of times you receive bucks for completing a single 'need' across multiple pets/babies because people were breaking the game by having dozens of fake alt accounts. We didn't mind it at first but some people took it too far with 100+ alts so now it's capped

We are definitely listening to feedback. The problem is that abuse is exponential - if we make it 3, there's 3X the abuse. If we make it 4, there's 4X the abuse. Bad actors abuse it to make $$$, and that money funnels back into the economy devaluing items through inflation
