We’re talking about Wardogs. The OP wasn’t discussing abusing normal game mechanics. It was talking about going to servers to “cheat” the mechanics.
Anyway, if Warframe did have community servers then they’d have this issue too. In fact, it does have this issue IIRC in the PvP mode. People will (or would) host games and not play the game mode just to farm the PvP currency/unlocks. If you could host your own servers, where you can modify the rules, this would get so much worse. It’s potentially still be worth doing though, in my opinion. Community servers breathe so much life into games. You still have to try to combat abuse though, or just don’t let them have any effect on progress, which would also suck.
