    ... You are aware mods have no special powers, privelages, or perks of any sort ingame, right? We're regular players who volunteer to keep the forums clean.

    those are called GMs. except they're paid.

    i'd hate to see volunteer gms ingame, they'd just abuse their power.. and ban/mute people they disliked. ahem.

    Joking aside..

    I believe we all had a warning, we should have known that something was going to eventually come and officially take down/make the page inaccessible... hell we arguably should have known it would have an inevitable work around. Since pwi/pwe hasn't exactly been... the greatest about removing things in a timely/correct manner. :X

    Still we should have known it would be coming sooner or later.

    NOTHING on the page isnt working any more. Its just a lousy Javascript that blocks access to it. Someone lazy just put that script so you cant access. They havent changed anything else.

    Beware everyone, my laptop is having a field day crunching all the tracking cookies from this new Arc they are forcing on us. If you don't have your browser set up to watch for them you might want too. Only website that sell your browser info use these type of cookies...I guess we can see why PWI is forcing Arc on everyone, guess they found another way to make money off of us.

    That sounds like a you problem or a load of bulldonkey. Arc website gives me the same cookies more or less that PWI's subdoman has been giving me for years.

    AND I call to all of you that are as upset about this Arc stuff, them taking our blessing and DQ points without so much as a word in warning to UNLIKE PWI on your facebook! Show them how much you do not want this force down our throat!

    If you run FireFox get AddBlock and Self-Destructing Cookies 0.4.3
    Don't let anyone sell your person browsing history, keep it safe.

    Is doesn't have to be sold to anyone; AdSense will find it one way or the other >_>

    Looks like Blessings and DQ points are down for the count, was this premature or something? If it's not then springing the Arc site on us and forcing a redirect on pages like the blessings without offering an alternative way to obtain them is a bit... I don't think I really need to explain.

    I haven't had the chance to fully explore as I'm in FSP at the moment, is there a way to obtain the blessings through Arc? If not then. You know. Yeah.


    Yea I hate the redirect it is not right I cant get the blessing on that site cant find it keep it up PWI about ready to put money elsewhere into lets say a game that listens to the players

    btw....if u all wanna get around the arc pop up here's a couple of way that have been mentioned so far.

    1. u can get a pop up blocker to block the arc redirect
    2. u can go directly to the rewards page.
    Ok, this post is made with information some people already posted, but it's more datailed, and has pictures. Click on every link to see a picture of every step. This is for Firefox.

    Before starting, get the Adblock Plus add-on

    https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/51270841/Step0.jpg

    Step 1:
    Type this addresses on your navigation bar: http://pwi.perfectworld.com/

    When you enter the page, press right click anywhere. A menu will come out, click on Adblock Plus: Block image...

    https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/51270841/Step1.jpg

    Step 2:
    After you click that menu, a new window will come out. Copy the next address:

    pwi.perfectworld.com/templates/common/js/*
    and paste that on the field after custom
    https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/51270841/Step4.jpg
    And then just press on Add filter, and if some warning message comes out, press continue or yes.


    Looking at the code I think they intended the rewards page to be exempt from the redirect but didn't fill the exemption list properly. The code is pretty sloppy btw.

    These URLs should work:

    http://pwi.perfectworld.com/dqrewards#/reward
    http://pwi.perfectworld.com/facebook#/reward EDIT: ehh this one won't work after the page refreshes hmm..


    honestly idk if going directly works b/c it worked just fine for me once I had the pop up blocker.

    That one is NOT correct. You block ALL javascripts that way.
    You need to filter
    ||pwi.perfectworld.com/templates/common/js/global_redirect.js
    not ALL Javascripts

    We'll be fine without blessings. Really.

    If people can't play without a free blessing then they shouldn't be playing at all. It seems really lame that removing a blessing is making people want to rage quit rather than actually learn to play more efficiently. I mean, we have the meridian system, we have title quests, we have war avatar cards, we have the new primal attack and defense passive skills, etc. that add all kinds of stat bonuses to our toons yet some still want to rage quit over an antiquated blessing?

    Come on...deal with it.
    I **** bigger than you...

    Shut up and play the game.....Damn

    Seriously?

    sidenote-this isn't an issue atm as we still have access to blessings via the js filter.

    So the complaints aren't that we can't play with out blessings, the complaint is some people have filled their mailboxes with enough blessings to last several decades and most others obtain blessings when they need em, or have a few stacked up. o there will come a time when only a small number of people are still running around with them, most likely in a few weeks, if the blessing page was indeed removed (which is wasn't for now)

    30 attack levels is huge, you especially should know this being from a PvP server, if one person has it and another doesn't, it makes a hell of a difference.

    It even redirects you when trying to go to http://pwi.perfectworld.com.
    Why the hell can't we visit the normal PWI site? Only http://perfectworld.com isn't being redirected yet.

    On a plus side if they're a **** and r9 3rd+12 going after NV3, it doesn't matter if they have a blessing or not. They're still gonna hurt.

    No problem to play without it, but as it has been mentioned, if it's removed for all completely and similtaneously. Else it's a big advantage over those who don't have it. Also ppl could prepare and stack Roll call daily blessing packs at least if they knew in advance that fb blessings are gonna be removed.

    I don't think they will remove it for good, no reason, they just didn't take it into consideration moving web-site. Most likely they will make another way to get it and it will be arc demanding...

    I bet people still have mail boxes stuffed with Jone`s/O`Mailey`s blessings, I also have at least 50 of those, people who didn`t hoard them will be at a major disadvantage when it comes to pvp, heck even for pve.

    So Mr. GM after saying that ARC is not enforced to us, you are giving us all **** that you didn't know and not your fault.
