No, today was just your unlucky day. You were breaking the rules and you were caught. Pay your fine and move on.

Well, this logic is flawed. There were no punishment guidelines for a player claiming unearned TPE but the HO determined a penalty and enforced it. Many even said that punishment wasn’t harsh enough. There was no rule for deleting a user’s posts but someone did that specific action and being punished. There's also not any rules regarding having secret Co-GMs (really, like WTF?) that play on another team. Guess what? Someone tried doing that, and all guilty parties were punished. Sometimes, the rules won’t be all encompassing and, as I’m sure you are aware, the league will have to adjust and overcome. If you are caught breaking a rule you should expect to be punished.
The thing is those teams were caught. They received a "punishment." In this scenario I know that a speeding ticket is $1. My brother and my friend both have gotten them. Then I get pulled over and I just got a $500 speeding ticket because they're changing the laws surrounding speeding tickets tomorrow.
