seriously we didn't know it was an exploit?i truly find it hard to believe we visit forums every other day and this problem was posted by members on day 2 or 3 after the update launch.
most of us started using this exploit when we saw those post and moreover we all have logical mind we did figure out it was an exploit thats why we used it didn't we?
The forum community is 12000 members strong at least 8000 of us visit forums every other day we could have told our guild mates to stop this rest you can do the math 8000X 25 members the result would have been amazing.
somebody compared rovio to government and players to citizens using this argument to shun rovio 's mistake. tell me if a govt brings a policy with a loophole and you exploit it, is your exploit valid? were you a good citizen. and if govt punishes you for that its not a valid excuse stating that we didn't know. we knew thats why we did it.
example:
Jordon belfort aka "the wolf of wall street" read his story.

yeah we lost goods we earned fair an square by farming.
I just want to ask one question would we have played that much game if we were not exploiting quests?
yeah we would have played games to help our quest but it wouldn't on the scale we did if we weren't exploiting the guild quest.
ans 3.
the punishment is bit harsh yes but rollback is justifiable. Now some of us will say we got this thing fair and square from farming so its not fair. but we did get those item pieces(epic/rare/legendary) , parts(epic /rare / legendary) and gold from selling perks which allowed us to get those perks and item in first place so the rollback is justifiable.
What isn't justifiable is negative tokens rovio the rollback is enough punishment (as these people lost training time, item, perks, acquired there is no need for negative tokens as players will just throw their matches and will not work with guild as they don't have any goals to work towards too aka
"rewards".
ans 4.
Yes there was miscommunication on rovio's part so they should provide a small compensation to player for the gold and sugar they earned from matches fair and square during this time
and still this is no reason for exploiting the system read
ANSWER 1 for further clarification.

@Miika comment made me do this.
first of all that post doesn't state making new guild and doing easy quest and then move on and make another guild to exploit the system as okay or justifiable it was mentioned for guild mercenary idea that
@yellowocean posted in his wonderful post of suggestion on guild quest and other ideas to make game better.
