Foxhack: I really wanted to use this coupon, but you know what? I won't, because I don't want to screw over a company that's given me many hours of entertainment. Silly, maybe, but I was raised right.
Actually, this might turn into a marketing opportunity for them. As for banning accounts, there's no need for that. They just need to troll through their order DB and have it toss out the people that used code X, and remove the games from each account. (Gets a little sticky if you've purchased one or two). Or they might say, "Oops, we screwed up. We see that you have interest in this, could you please buy it from us?" That kind of appeal is one that I usually go for.
