Lets dicuss the RoG rules here guys. No sense in further derailing the thread.
My take on the RoG update rules is this, if you got an ability during a quest or battle you can keep using it as awarded. However, for you to gain any "auto-level" increases, you need to submit a profile. Until you have updated your level really doesn't change. The idea that you didn't have to submit an update was more for people who sit there and have nothing truly to report. Things like swords that grow stronger as the wielder does and such need to be regulated by RoG and it is their perogative to say "sorry this level you don't get that."
With that out of the way I feel the change only enhanced what was already there. If you quest for abilities and such, you can make use of them, but for people that have level cantrips, you need to update so it gets balanced if the need should arise.
