Anti-gaming control
A rule designed into an engagement or rewards mechanic specifically to survive a participant optimising against it — a referral system that detects self-referral, a streak with a grace policy that cannot be farmed, a leaderboard scoped so a new entrant is not immediately buried.
Common causes
Mechanics designed against the intended use only, with abuse handling added after the first exploit reaches production.
What good looks like
Abuse cases enumerated at design time, for every mechanic that touches a balance, a rank or an invitation.
