Wondering how this will affect the current way to earn shadow crystals by installing apps. Does this affect it in any way?

IMO Kyle should disassociate that shadow crystal method immediately
Yeah that doesn't sound too good at all. Definatley changes the whole free crystal by app download thing. Hopefully Kyle can figure a way around this problem. If in fact Apple is serious.

pls pls let shadow era alive, apple!!!
or KYLE!!!put the earn free crystals out of this game!!!
The Shadow Era update has been "Waiting for Review" for about a week now, so it's sounding like it will soon get rejected for including TapJoy's Offerwall because Apple decided to change their policy. If that's the case then we'll have to resubmit without it and wait another week
Well.. don't.. that.. just suck.
i really don't know how this affects us. given how the clause reads
"Developers who attempt to manipulate or cheat the user reviews or chart ranking in the App Store with fake or paid reviews, or any other inappropriate methods will be removed from the iOS Developer Program."
you're not cheating or manipulating user reviews for your game. in fact weren't you complaining about how lame it is that there's a rating option when deleting a free game before? how is downloading another app affecting Shadow Era reviews? the installation of new apps and immediate removal doesn't affect reviews at all for the dl'ed games, none of the offers for dl'ing apps ever included a clause that i had to rate/review the app.
- it's so blatantly obvious i'm gonna win that they usually quit. =(. i feel like i have to hold back so they won't leave.
Crap.... I knew it. FML

hey, since this is also a browser based game, is there anyway to get around it by not having the earn free crystals on the ipod/iphone but keep it for browsers?

@autumleaf Even if you don't use the service, if you're apart of the trafficking, you're labelled as apart of the problem. But do note, at the moment, it's not crystal clear what will happen. Then again, Apple is known not to be very clear when it comes to this area so it may remain that way for awhile. We'll just have to wait and see and Kyle will keep us posted.
EDIT: Yeah, SuperRewards should be fine. I doubt Apple would get anal about that because it's just too far out of their reach for them to bother caring.
EDIT2: To clarify, my comment on trafficking was referring to app rating inflation through Tapjoy.
