The water balloon had a coded application in PVP as well, as it counted as an 'attack' it could be used to interrupt Hunter Ranger's attacks. As a TR I did this a few times, it was very amusing.
The only 'victims' are the people that spent $10 dollars for for promotion, and no longer have the benefit over everyone else. I feel bad for them. Go a step further, next time you see someone selling a stone also check what guild they are in and report it. Hell pretend to 'buy' one so they invite you to it.
My issue has been resolved with a GM. They said it was a linking issue and was able to go in and manually fix whatever the issue was. I'm a happier camper now.
All it tells me is "Someone else has already registered that Display Name. Please choose a new one." with whatever name I put in. It could oisfghau198 and it'll say it's taken. They said my transaction wasn't complete. So it's an issue with their system.
I just received a GM response telling me to do this: https://billing.perfectworld.com/neverwinterguardian/complete which I have already done many times. I'm assuming that the link is completely broken.
The guardian pack is also greyed out for me. But I'm having the name conflict issue and no matter what name I choose it says it's taken. I have linked my cryptic accounts with PWE. What gives?
