I agree with you.

While I did point out that it would be pretty hard to do, I also agree that whim should be taken completely out of the picture.

I've spent a lot of time and effort both in and out of closed betas. The exploit that I mention in the first post of this thread has been on the LIVE servers for over a year. Sometimes it is harder to do than others, but it is still there.

Besides, just like the Developer's Choice badges, getting rewarded for finding bugs in a closed beta smacks of having a reward (exclusive badge) on top of a reward (access to closed beta).
