They didnt say anything about officer report removal. I asked several times on forum and reddit as well ,but without success. I donno whats going on...
I will tell you exactly why the Officer Reports went missing, and if i'm wrong, and its just a bug then.... GOOD!
The "powers that be" removed it for what they believe is its use in foundry exploiting, I.E. Dil Farming. Though if you really think about it, it's not much of an exploit since, as the system is set up now, you would have to spend 1/2 hr. in any given foundry mission ( able to give dill ) per toon then use the officer reports to get the extra Dil. So depending on how many toons u have your looking at anywhere from 4-8 hrs. of this to fill maybe 3-4 toons of their daily 8k refining. I honestly doubt if there are many of us who would devote that kind of time. But there are those (Gold Spammers) who would and do with many Alt. accounts. So of course the "Powers" have yanked it. I am also sure that they haven't said anything to us because they know just what kind of backlash this would cause with the community who does actually rely on this to assist them in getting their daily allotment. Now, I for one am ALL about putting the boot to the hind end of the gold spammers. They are the bane of all existing MMO's and have done nothing but mess things up for us "Real" gamer's. But The fact that PWE can't step up and tell us whats going on says a lot to their character. People are honestly curious and concerned about why they no longer have access to one of the best dil gathering systems in the game and we deserve an answer!
So, how about an answer PWE?
I doubt that's the reason. Foundy exploiting hasn't been an issue for years now, since they removed rewards from very short missions a long time ago. As far as I know.
The only thing we know is that Foundry content is unavailable at the moment, which was announced. And that Trendy is working on some UGC-related project.
The OP clearly does not know whether this is a bug or an intentional change, hence his question "did it get removed?". Try actually reading what he wrote.
REALLY!?!?! You deleted my post!?!?!?!?! WHY? I guess I hit the nail on the head didnt I? Heaven forbid anyone knows the truth.....Unreal!
Nothing got deleted, your post with your ridiculous idea is still there. Trendy posted a while ago that UGC (thats User generated Content, ie Foundry) was being disabled for a while so they can work on something. If Foundry is down so is Officer Reports since without foundry content its useless.
Except that the Foundry doesn't appear down since none of the missions are being republished and the Editor is online.

@dhopper Foundry/IOR had bad rep but it truly is a thing of the past, dilithium now soars due to Admiralty, not the Foundry and its measly rewards.... ....but still, you and everyone else here is 100% right, and a straight answer would really put people at ease, one way or another.

The rest is just speculation.
