There was a bug that allowed people to get max Dwarven title in under an hour. A.net had to freeze primaries for about an hour to fix it. Primary quests should work again now.

The primaries were giving full reputation reward for completion every time you do it rather than full rep first time and not much afterwards. Some people figured it out on a specific primary that could be run in only a couple of minutes. The got all 100k rep points in about 1 hour. About an hour later the primaries were locked. An hour after that they were reopened and fixed back to the way they ought to be.

Abussing an accidental exploit is not "good."
