    I just used the code and I don't want the rollback because I lvl up a lot tonight, also got pretty stuff with the code (and perfect questmaster) :I The only thing I have to complain is after the spam last night I can't see my "current" quests, no matter if I just released it or was from days ago. Also, I was 99% and returned to 0%... with no lvl up... b:cry

    My vote would be to opt for a mass ban on anyone who used these codes on Morai in the first place. They were meant for Archosaur, dammit. Why are they redeemable for any other server at all?!

    Having played MMOs for the better part of almost two decades, and many games, I've seen rollbacks quite a few times. To give PWE credit, they are one of the only companies that try to make amends by offering some compensation. I've seen popular games rolled back a few days, a week, and one time three weeks. Yes a three week rollback.

    As for this compensation abuse, the blame is in fact pointed towards both PWE and the players that abused it. To those that say "I didn't read the post by the GM that it was one per account, but only saw the wait 10 minutes" its no different than driving 55 mph on a road when you passed a sign that said 35 mph zone, only to get pulled over by the police for speeding and claiming, "well officer, I didn't see the sign"

    One should always take a moment to read the fine print and not jump the gun. In any societal instance, regardless of the topic, the majority are always affected by the actions of a few, and this is in fact just a game.

    But having said that, I am all for a rollback, even to the most recent maintenance. XP, coins, items, levels, can be made back up in a short time, but the divide between those that abused the compensation, and those that didn't would never be made up, unless of course you were willing to spend real money to get $1000+ dollars worth of items that the abusers were able to receive for free.

    I can always catch back up the xp, levels, items, coin that was lost whenever there is a rollback. What took 2 to four days to make, I can make back in 2 to 4 days, however I cannot catch up to those that received 10, 20, 30, 50 diamond orbs, 1000+ event gold, or 10+ plat charms without farming for the next 5 years, or spending gobs of cash, so as one of the non-abusers, I vote roll it back.

    As for future compensations for game issues, I would advise PWE if anything like this happens again, remove the word "compensation" from your vocabulary and let the playerbase just deal with it with nothing in return.

    Yeah... No. Likely hood of this is 0. If you look at past glich exploitations in pwi. Most probably will get something like:

    They will only ban the people who used the exploit excessively, and in the end normally this is very few of the people who did exploit it excessively if they do ban anyone.

    Im sure we all remember the remember z goon glich?

    I vote yes, a 1000 times if i could. For those people complaining about loosing 3 days of exp/items and whatever.... What about working your *** off for 4 years in this game and not even having all gear +10 yet and now any random noob that abbused the code (on purpose or not, it doesn't matter) runs arround in full +10 gear or even higher??? So please stop complaining about loosing 3 days when others see a few years of farming going down the drain.

    Considering office jobs are 9 to 5 jobs, they will start coming into the office in about 3 and a half hours.
    Then they'll have to (eventually) notice this thread and/or discuss the issue
    Then maybe we'll hear something after a while.

    So don't expect anything soon still.

    Lets be honest with our selves here. MOST of the people that are crying for a roll back and saying "Catch the abusers" are doing this because they were, Working/Sleeping/Eating and/or enjoying whatever Real Life they have. Then they come back to their true "RL" b:thankb:chuckle to find out that not only has their been a code that gave them free stuff. Not only can you use the code more than once do a glitch in either the Redeem site or the code its self. BUT the icing on the cake for them is, the Site Crashed.

    So the ones that "Didn't get anything" are crying for a Roll back for equality and are saying to Ban the ones that "Abuse" the code. Put yourself in the same position. You have this code. that gives you 3 orbs + a whole bunch of other junk. You want it. You're thinking about your G16/rrr9 gear and saying "Damn, what if..." And you clicked it again. And again. and again. Then poof. After 30mins the sites down and you are like, welp. Know that thats over with...

    A roll back wont make you equal with the rrr9s. That takes skill with gear. A roll back wont matters to those who you deem "Abusers". They are "CSers". But why roll back, lose days and more because you were not online ever waking moment to use a code that was broken?

    IMO. PWI/E should have stopped at 5x exp for arch. And it was a nice thing to give ALL servers 2x with it. It got out of hand with the Email of free orbs. Most of the people just wanted acknowledgement that PWI/E and all of its staffing cared enough to do something to correct a unfortunate mishap that they admitted to making.

    And as far as this Banning **** goes. What are you gonna do, ban everyone that was online at the time the code went live to the time the code shut down. b:laugh.

    IMO do what kids do when they break something. Push it under a rug or something.

    Say, "We messed up. We tried to fix it. You missed up. This week was messed up. Forget and move on." Because honestly, there isn't anything pwi can do that will make ANYONE happy.
    Logic = Against ToS. It's the answer to all "Wtf..." Moments during normal gameplay with other players.

Also i would like to ask a moderator if any are on to please make Momentarily stop trolling people on forums...i would now like to say she is flaming people with her constant rude posts and it is not appropriate

    And ? Remember when there was a thread about killing hyperstones in FC ? You know which option got the most votes ?

    The one that was never ever really concidered ;)

    Hence this, and any other "vote" thread is USELESS. You can make multiple accounts to vote, it can be changed by the staff with one single click of a button and mostly nobody ever tends to comment on what they voted or even read what the quack they voted.

    Lots of valid points made in all the posts I've seen, don't really know what to think. Some people end up quitting and going to private servers where rrr9 gear, +12 refines, and shards are basically free, its why the population of regular PWI is going down because people are either too lazy to farm their stuff or too poor to cs their way to the top like a lot of people on the different servers have and I think it discourages them because they just constantly get smacked down by these people who seem to have too much money to put into a game just so they can have bragging rights cause they have all this money and they can feel like a big person on a pix-elated game...

    I also remember the goon glitch in FC from a year or so ago, sooooo many people took advantage of it like entire servers and they really didn't do much about that because I don't think they wanted to just ban all of the people from every server, and I don't remember anyone calling for a roll back then.... Now all of a sudden people get a break with the code/orb glitch and EVERYONE freaks out, I mean people who work/worked hard for their gears and +10/12 would eventually get there reguardless of code glitch or whatever I honestly think this glitch thing just kinda helps balance the server out a bit giving underdog people a little bit more of a chance against cs'ing people because you arent required to cs in this game so i dont see how it effects the economy maybe I'm wrong but who knows

    bottom line lets just cut our losses and move on b:victory
