    I am part of your position. I play all the servers as a regular player too. I'm also get the joys of having to keep a cool head when PWE screws up because I've volunteered to help deal with the flood that inevitably strikes the forums. The mods don't get any special privileges ingame. We have no ability to do anything to the servers or for them.

    Honestly, the rollback isn't that big of a thing to me if whatever they've fixed stays that way and we don't have all the instability issues (Looking at RT as an example). Especially since I've been through rollbacks before on other games. Some of which were far more severe than this four day loss we've had here. Plus, like I said in my response here, whatever they found must have been big, because they have NEVER done a rollback before. Even when players were demanding one they chose to go and remove all the issues manually so that we wouldn't have to suffer through a rollback.

    As for compensation, we'll have to wait and see just what they do and how. For all we know, this time it may actually be something decent (yeah I'm not holding my breath either but it's nice to hope). Until we know, though, we can't really yell at them for what they haven't done yet. If it turns out to suck then I'll sigh and do more cleaning up while everyone yells at them, but until that happens... b:surrender


    this is litterly stealing from costumers what ever TOS says it is stealing

    Hello everyone,

    During tonight's server maintenance, we discovered a critical issue for Archosaur server. After many attempts at fixing it, we decided the best and only way to fix this is to do a character roll back to a time when the server was at a stable state. We will be rolling back Archosaur to November 9th at 10:00 AM PST.

    We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused and we'll be running 2x EXP, spirit, and drops for Archosaur after the servers open.

    That is realy nice of you now give me back my Zen and good bye PWI, I had already started playing anouther MMO and loosing 4% xp at 104 not nice.

    x2 drops does not a thing for me nor does trying to give me gold. You managed to mess up major and you want to just roll back and say there you go!
    are you guy real? i buy $300 for zen and now all gone are you ****ing tell me to buy the zen again?,you got to be kidding right, you things we are rich or something?also why the ****ing an mine lvl 83 when im already lvl 89?i hope you guy fix it if not goodbye PWI

    If you purchased with PayPal put ticket in with them. When PWI starts having to pay back the money maybe they will get the picture!

    Before the Rollback i had used my DQ pts to buy a demon/sage event card as well as 12,000 pts worth of random dyes, both purchases due on 11/11/13. But after the rollback, the items purchased are no longer credited, however the DQ points (62,000) have been deducted from my acc. So does it mean i lost those points or PWI will credit back those 62k pts back into my acc? I'm so pissed off that i'm willing to quit this game if this issue is not positively solved!!!!

    I am sry PWI, but 2x isn't an appropriate compensation for what everyone has lost during these last few days. People have lost gold, coins, refines, items, tw wins or losses, characters, bh rewards, meridian rewards, dailies, base quests, xp, the list goes on...considering Archosaur's playerbase and that we charge more zhen than probably any other server. It is in your best interest to help us as quickly as possible, otherwise this sort of unreliability will cause players to leave, and there are plenty other games that we can take our credit cards too. Get on your A game PWI staff, otherwise its going to cost u...b:sad

    to us we lsot a GREAT deal of stuffs A LOT Larger than u think we played all this days n farmed all that coins for u guys to reroll?......................... n u say the things so simply as if its nothing great.....
    Are you serious? Hundreds of millions of dollars, R9, 100k rep, and almost 10% at level 103? I'm glad it's no big deal to you but they stole from me.
    As I've said, I've been through worse rollbacks on other games before. I'm not saying that this is pleasant or that it means nothing. Just that it could have been worse and at least they're doing something about it. If you think four days is nightmare, try losing three months of work, effort, and people with no compensation nor mention of it.

    4 days in this game, while horribly annoying (That's 4 days of merching down the drain, plus tokens, gear, EXP, badges, and so on), at least it came with a fix to something that may have potentially caused us to lose much more (at least, that's what they say) and they've shown in the past that they wouldn't perform a rollback unless it was the absolute last thing they could possibly do.

    Well Surtr was up for 22 hours, so that's a thing... and they don't get paid for the extra time they spend here outside of office hours. As much as we despise the **** up, they're people too. I just had the misfortune of being online at the moment so I'm damage control until someone who can actually do something shows up, I suppose!

    Unfortunately, there turned out to be a critical database error on Archosaur that our engineers were not able to fix, and as a result the server has had to be rolled back to approximately 10am PST on Saturday, November 9th. We cannot apologize enough, as we know that for many of you that's the better part of four days of gameplay that's just been reverted. We will be compensating those of you who made purchases during that time in the coming days.
    They have promised compensation, so it's not a case of you never getting it back. At least for now. Now if the compensation is something stupid like 10 Hyper EXP stones, then... please don't direct your very appropriate outrage at me when I have to do my job as a mod. b:surrender

    All I would like is for the GMs to repond to these posts and tell us all what they will do to return things such as gold, coins or gear. Expierience would be nice but as far as gold that is real money being dumped into a game that frankly just screwed all its customers. Not good business, not good business at all.

    I lost my rrr9 chest, leggings and sleeves. The GsTs I bought to make these I purchased during chip sales. Now the chip sale is gone, so I lost about 105m, because now I have to buy them again with double price. Sure, I get the gold back eventually but I bet they arent going to compensate any of this ? Why the hell would they remove chip sale, because OBVIOUSLY ppl have bought chips during this time and will now lose money cus of this.

    GG, PWI. Thank you.

    yeah it sux, yeah your stuff is gone... deal with it and get over it... pwi doesn't have to provide us a free game to play... they don't "have" to provide us with anything... and yup, it's the most expensive free game I've ever played, been playin for over 4 years now and have spent more than I would care to admit on this free game...**** happens, it's a fact of life,
    don't ya all think the staff had a clue when they did the reset ? knew how much grief they were gonna get ? how pissed people would be ? how much hate they would receive ? and yet they did a reset anyhow... someone or something messed up bad and they did what they needed to do to fix it, those that purchased zen will be reimbursed so ya lost 4 days it sux but give em a break they did what they needed to do after spending several hours trying to fix what ever the problem was in the 1st place. Any of you haters ever consider telling em thank you for providing you with a free place to go ? A free game to play ? Probably not, you were to busy hating

    Its almost impossible to believe that you dont have a DAILY BACKUP to cover extreme situations like this and that you have to go back 5 DAYS (120 hours) of continuos gameplay, making your devoted customers to lose not only the time spent but unique deals, sales, purchases, packs, ZEN, etc, etc, etc... and all you can do is say "SOOWIE, WE F...CKED IT UP, BUT HEY, WE WILL GIVE YOU A WHOLE DAY, I REPEAT, A WHOOOLEE DAY OF 2X DROPING, SPIRIT AND EXP"..... Why you think we are STUPID?.. that we can be bought with a damn day of 2X? you better think twice, NOT EVEN A WEEK OF 2X WILL COMPENSATE THE LOST WE HAVE SUFFERED HERE DUE TO YOUR INCOMPETENCE.... So you BETTER think on another really QUICK solution before ARCHOSAUR becomes the less populated server of all PWE.

    I understand PWI has to do what they have to do in order to fix the errors. My only question is....when will it be up and running again? Kudos to PWI for continuing to put up with small-minded greedy people and still putting out this free game for the rest of us to enjoy. I love you PWI. b:kiss

    As well as you said i just want to add in the fact that minimizing this situation will just make it worse.

    Also other , waaaaaaaay smaller games with a way smaller P2W factor did get rollbacks that are up to a week old ... BUT!

    One should always look up and not down. Also in those games u didnt lose get halfassed rollbacks like you lose coins but you dont get your items back and stuff like that. Also Zen, Gold, GP and w/e else u wana call it doesnt get rolled back ... Ever in any game lol.
    Only thing worst then a troll is a brainless troll ...

    shame on you pwi for taking peoples items and rl money and the only thing you can say is there will be compensation?????? this is fruadulent behavior and reportable to better business bureaus and that big deal you make bout getting stars or number 1 with gaming publications are about to disappear cause you can't have those reports on file and not deal with them and you can believe i am sending them if you don't move your ***** and fix this...2x my *** no one cares bout 2 times we care where our money is in a crappy *** economy and you just decide the best way to fix something is too steal it....well damn thank goodness not everyone does that or the whole population would be doing it.
