Rollback... Yes or No???

If you are not on Archosaur server, you will get....


Nothing!

It's as if you broke into Wonka's lab and stole the fizzy lifting drinks!

You wanna know why?


(Whispering) Because you weren't on Archosaur Server... so why are you getting compensated?

This was open to all servers you idiot. Read OP. Archosaur got 5x and this. Once again like i said earlier you guys keep QQing about a dang rollback and you get everything. So again ill say i invite a rollback if it means 5x exp, orbs and i guess even more since the mod only said archosaur gets a targed reward or whatever.

Meanwhile servers like mine get nothing even though our servers were down hours longer than yours every single maint and we were frozen in instances etc etc?

This seems fair.

says the code already expired.

The ones saying No rollback are stupid ***** on alts.... ofc rollback, only way n wise way is a damn rollback. PWI plz GTFO with ur fawkin orbs we dont want this sht anymore...... ROLLBACK OR MANYYYY WILL QUIT!!!!!

70/30 in a poll is pretty major...even hotbed issues like ARC downloads were at most 60/40. Not like it matters anyway...PWI just does the complete opposite of what players want.

Relogging until a roll back b:shutupb:laugh

Rollback is the only way to fix this game now, its way too broken

I am just wondering who in their right mind would vote NO on this poll?

I would understand if some didnt care either way but for so many to vote no sounds strange.

They're the ones who received multiple orbs and don't want to lose them.

why PWI staff never learn? This is not the 1st time they mess up with the code , they should do something with the code they given...

Why not code anymore instead sending all to account and player can choose 1 char only to open it? That's just and idea. i got 3 orb btw no more no less and i say no to roll back. I know pwi can trace those who got more than 3. and those who dont have yet.


They having hardtime answering all the ticket that they received so they release a CODE for all, not a good move now they will be recieving more ticket than they received before. goodluck on that.

Hello Perfect World citizens!

We've finalized our compensation efforts for the past month of various issues that have affected many of you this holiday season.

-Redeem the following code to any character on any server for a collection of goodies including bound dragon orbs! The code is redeemable once per account.

6JMMAAB

Code ends on Sunday, November 24th @ 11:59 PM PST

We thank all of you who have stayed with us during these turbulent times, and please continue being awesome!

-PW Team

UPDATE:
We've disabled the code while we investigate the situation of code abuse.

UPDATE:
Here is what I was able to get:

- We will not be rolling back the servers.

- A highly focused and targeted Archosaur-specific compensation effort will be enacted.

- We will be punishing legitimate abusers of the compensation code who received far more than is possible from redemption page lag. We will be doing so in a detailed, focused manner which will make progress on punishments slower but more precise. So do not worry if you are one who got more orbs unintentionally. We do not want to penalize those who did not intend abuse of the system.

Regarding the level of abuse, from the data in front of us, it was not quite as widespread as many believe. It was mostly a few dozen or so who abused the code from means other than lag/timeouts. The perception of it being widespread is due to the unintentional in-game message spam distorting the situation, and nonfactual boasts in the forums or worldchat.

This is the reason why there will not be a rollback.

I remember early in one MMO (look at my sig for the game I'm talking about), there was an exploit where people could very cheaply refine all their gears to +12 (yes, that game has a +12 system similar to PWI). The whole server was up in arms about it, +12 messages were rolling across the chat.

Within a few hours, ALL of those +12 items disappeared, without even the need to roll back. The people who glitched and exploited lost all the mats they used exploiting this glitch. A gamemaster came on and said in chat, "We do not tolerate abuse of game glitches or mechanics in any way, and those who used this glitch will not be reimbursed for their materials".

The population that didn't cheat cheered for joy that day b:chuckle.

That's how a company PROPERLY handles something like this without completely destroying their reputation.

All I see is people telling me "Next Glitch, you should take a part of it!! See ? everybody is doing it, since the beginning, and they never had nothing. Don't wait for them to get punished, be like them and Enjoy like they do"

Ain't no Perfect World b:sad

I voted no and here is why...
Rollback will hurt more then the "abusers" If you happened to have bought zen during this time your cc is charged and while the game is rolled back you not only lose anything you bought but now you've lost the money also!!! The accounting to fix that would be a nightmare and would likely result in even bigger abuse then is current now.
Currently they could simply mass mail everyone 3 orbs ( yes I know abusers would get some also ) and then everyone would be at least receiving the INTENDED gift. Then they can dig and go after those that TRULY abused the system.
while I did get the orbs on one of my chars accidentally, on my other accounts I got nothing... So I'm one of the "victims" just one of the luckier ones.

They did pay back the sen on Arch really fast, pwi care too much about c$ers to don't pay back.

ATM private servers are more legit than the official US server, so why even play?

Let's hope some tough pwi gamers of california/redwood city give the pwe staff a warm welcome on monday morning and motivate them to do their jobs right b:kiss

PWI has said no rollbacks ok if they did it now the tw and nw will be f up so drop this and don't be big babys about this. I did get orbs so what move on b:laugh
