You won't get banned or in trouble for farming.
Farm until your brain leaks out of your ears and you go cross-eyed. Positron never said he was cracking down on farming.
However, it's when you decide to use game-breaking exploits in abusive ways to get extreme levelling speeds that you'll get in trouble. Although farming is much faster than levelling 'normally', it is not a Powerlevelling exploit and therefore you can do it. The people that Positron aimed his post at know very well who they are, because they use exploits and bugs in crafty ways to get insane levels in absurdly short amounts of times, IE powerlevelling businesses that use AE.
In other words, don't worry about it. Go have fun.

His exact words were
"Players that have abused the reward system egregiously may lose benefits they have gained - leading up to and perhaps including losing access to the characters power-leveled in this fashion."
He never said farming a lot will get you banned. He said abusing powerlevelling tactics excessively will get you in trouble.

What is that threshold I mean it comes off to me as nothing more than a scare tatic it been happening since day one when people use to farm Werewolves with blasters and hover because they had no range attack so they hover above killing Wolves.
Winterlords; Family Maps; Derek Map I mean the list keeps going from there; lets not forget street sweeping and sitting in the tram for xp. The MA was not even as bad as the old people going afk with footstomp on near a portal racking up xp for hours while watching movies. That is why you no longer get XP from mobs coming from portals it was nerfed do to farmers. (I mean there is even more if you want to cover some of those)
Funny how no one was ever threatened with bands for doing the same thing in the past.
They know they can not fix the bugs or make enough changes fast enough to keep up so they are resorting to scare tactics (imo)
Just keep playing and do not worry about it.

I am not sure what MArcs I 'can' play and which I shouldn't.
If I run a clear the map solo, is that ok. If I want to run it quicker so invite a scrapper/blaster withme is that ok?
When is it a funny mission like the bugs one and when is it a farm? is it only the Comm Officers that were 'evil'? what about the headman gunman? or Rikti Anathema?
I am still confused.
