Compensation code being misused

Kittysama - Raging Tide_1432680721
edited November 2013 in Chronicles
During the couple last hours there's been many system messages of people getting Dragon Orb Ocean on Raging Tide-server. In other words, those compensation codes for Archosaur are being misused by many (especially high-end) players on our server. This creates slight unbalance considering how expensive those orbs are to get, giving an edge to anyone that had a character on Archosaur server and misused that on their RT-main.

To compensate this unrighteousness, it would be nice if you gave that code to everyone and make something that can be ensured to be Archosaur-only to compensate the losses of rollback.

Kitty thanks.

    I actually agree with you for the most part. There is a first time for everything...

    If that is true, take a screenshot each time you see someone getting the ocean orb and send in a ticket. Archosaur was the server with the rollback, there is no need for other servers to get the ocean orbs as well. If people are abusing the codes on other servers, maybe PWE will actually do something about it this time and ban the morons regardless of how high a level they are and how much money they have spent.

    I don't find this as an abuse. You get a unique code, and if they chose to use it on another server or give it away, it's still only once usable.

    +1 to this and waiting to hear people that actually did this have to nerve to post anything defending their actions. Just hoping this doesnt turn into something like the goon glitch where pwi swears to exact justice on those responsible for doing something they shouldnt just to not do so. People doing things like this are exactly why the game is getting worse and worse....not all the blame can be put on PWE

    Okay just to clarify, is the issue that people that do not have toons on the archosaur server received and redeemed codes?

    Or is that they received their code because as someone on the Archosaur server they were affected by the rollback, but then chose to spend it on a different character?

    Either way i'll poke a gm about it.

    I didn't get one and could care less, why do people complain about everything? the people who are complaining are frankly butthurt and jealous. So far ive seen less than 10 people with it in red spam, not that big of a deal and before u blow off saying that "i dont care cause i got coins flowing out of my ***" im prbly poorer than the three of you combine.

    Kitty if pwi gives everyone a orb the people who actually farmed or bought it will complain about being on the same level, just give it a rest.

    Still expect to see silly ragers and their dumb remarks to a silly topic.

    The issue ish that they used the code for character on Raging Tide, not for character on Archosaur like they were supposed to.

    My guess is they have a character on Morai or Archosaur, and are using it on the unaffected servers, or buying codes from people I would suspect are selling the codes in WC, like whenever something like this happened in the past.

    Why are you including Morai that way ? People shouldn't be able to use those codes on Morai either...
    And actually maybe it could be accepted that some people that have been impacted by Archosaur's bug choose to use it on another of their toon elsewhere BUT I'm pretty sure most of them don't really play on Achosaur anymore... so that's a real problem unbalancing other servers.

    they be like "DUDE IF WE DONT USE IT NOW THEY MIGHT TAKE THE CODE AWAY USE ITTTTT"

    That's messed up. So bascially you could just have a level 1 alt there and you could it use on your main char on another server? Meh. Just give everyone a code, seriously.

    If people have chars on Arch than who care where they use the codes? It's not like if people was creating chars today and getting a code for chars created after the roll back.

    I doubt there's that many people that have chars they don't use on Arch.

    I have chars lvl8x on HT, but don't really play there, if I was able to get a code for stuff, I don't think it's a big deal if I was using on HL. it's not a R9rr+12 set, it's a orb and few pots.

    Always this QQ about free stuff from PWE
    "QQ PWE give us more free shizz!!!!!"
    Then we get the free shizz and we see
    "QQ why u give free shizz"

    If those people that used the code on RT or any other server then Archo don't feel the need to use it on Archo why MAKE them use it there? It's a compensation code for Archo but if the people that got the code wanna use it on another server, let them, i mean wtf is wrong with people nowadays.... If the orbs were tradeable i could understand the QQ...but they aren't...
    And no i didn't get the code, and still i think its up to the person effected by the rollback how they use it b:bye

    The point ish that it gives rather unfair advantage for those players that have a baby character(that they don't really play and thus they didn't lose anything on rollback) on Archosaur and they use it for their main's(that's on other server) advantage. On RT value of that Dragon Orb Ocean ish about the same that Kitty gets by farming 1,5 weeks hard, so it really doesn't feel right to work hard for something others get by misusing something like this.

    The problem is that they cant just offer it to certain players of certain levels and call it a fix. It needs to be made available for EVERYONE at this point. It is an unfair advantage and it is going to **** up other servers balance

    So far I've seen people get 3 or so of the orbs sent to them on the same character...You'd better be kidding me that not only do not all of us get this code, but some of the others found a way to get more than one reward sent to them? Not cool.

    First off, the code wasn't sent to only archo, it was also sent to some Morai accounts as well. If you had a toon on either you could possibly get a code. I have a character on morai and I recieved a code.

    Secondly, there is nothing in the e-mail that says you can't redeem this on any server other than archo or morai. If they truely intended to make it redeemable on only one of those servers they would have.

    Thirdly, its just 1 +10 orb, its not a huge deal. I could understand if it was 3 like the e-mail said there would be. And th eonly gear it would make a huge differenc eon is r9t3, which it cant be used on because technically r9t3 is 'G17' or higher, since I used my +10 on my g16 helm, because it wouldn't let me use it on my r9t3 chest.

    Fourthly, apparently not all the codes have been sent out so be patient if you should get one and havent.

    And Finally, its not misusing anything seeing as its not bound to being sent to a specific server, its just redeeming something where you want it to be. If they wanted it to be sent to archo or morai they would have made it that way. If you have the option to send it to another server, you can take that option if you see fit.

    Edit: also to add another thing, people getting more than 1 orb just have multiple accounts that got a code and redeemed it on a singular account. Since the codes are individualized per account, but can be redeemed on any account.

    Because we all know PWE and to even think they make this code available for everyone is ridiculous xD
    I get your point, but my point is all the QQing gets you/us nowhere.
    PWE screwed up and We, the players, have to suffer the consequence like everytime...

    what else do you expect from a company that employs nothing but rucking fetards? They will **** on your leg and tell you it isnt them, it is you. They will punch you in the face laughing, while saying sorry. Perfect World simply does not care. There is no thought put into anything they do.
    Look at the last update. NPCs are still missing. Server maintenance has taken hours and hours longer then they said it would be, in some cases +/- 15 hours. Ticket times are a joke and are usually met with cut and paste stuff. CSing rewards STILL not handed out to people after waiting weeks. They put more time and effort into launching new content, before even trying to think about fixing what is already broken.

    I will bet my left nut that the new update coming out in Dec will be riddled with more bugs then a homeless guy.
