Nobody gets banned for exploting these links. Nor the XML files.

I heard some people were banned for exploting the gold links back in 2014, but I'm not sure I believe it. I know several people who exploited them like this, had 10.000+ gold, and even used it to fill their pvp armory with 64g items for several seasons in a row. They are still playing. Never got banned.

The odds of getting banned in this game, even when exploting and hacking without trying to hide it, are very low. And there are, I believe, 2 primary reasons for this.

1. The M:AA staff is undermanned. It's a very small team with far too many deadlines to keep for them to spend time investigating cheaters. Especially considering that their log systems are most likely crap, or non-existant, which means gathering evidence of a cheater can be very difficult unless it's blatantly obvious - like MANUEL in previous pvp who was at 3000 rating with a level 20 account that had maybe 10 heroes recruited. So if the suspicious account in question requires more than 5 minutes time to investigate, then they simply don't have time for it.

2.They need all the active player accounts they can get, so their investors don't shut the game down due to low popularity. They don't care if you're cheating; as long as you log on and play the game regularly, then you are a valuable asset to them because you are padding their statistics. This is especially true if you also buy gold once in a while. Then you can cheat as much as you want and they will never even think of banning you, even if they know 100% sure you are cheating.

Indeed Maa team is very small, the devs cant handle all the "I found a cheater ban him lalala". They are producing content more often since they were absorverd by Disney. The mass wave of ban that occurs by periords is only afecting the blatant ones but not all of them since they dont have the manpower to loocking everycase one by one and just burn the easy ones. I doubt this game get the short end of the stick in the next years, they still maintain over 1.000.000 people on FB and that a lot margin for a FB game and more movies are coming so more content.
