I'll update the Final Compensation thread with information in the next hour.
I'm hoping to be able to say something of worth, and not "I don't know yet."

just rollback already, or give us all the same amount of orbs the worst cheater got.

Even though i prefer a roll back. Getting stuff easy is boring.

And yes, those abusers knew exactly what they were doing. You guys have got to learn ethics and moral. I once got a US$100 item by accident in my bag when i was buying stuff, noticed it when I got home, I payed the bus again to go back and gave the item back.

I once saw someone in game selling tishas at 1.5k... I bought them all, pmed him/her and gave them back.

Man some of you guys have to learn what honesty is....

ROLLBACK NOW!

well i dont really understand why pwi felt the need to give out these items. We got 2x on all servers wich is more than what we could have asked for! wasnt expecting 2x untill Christmas time... anyway this was just a bad idea on their part.

if only this was strictly a pve game i wouldnt really be bothered by it. this is not qqing from people who didnt get anything, its just true that it sucks for those who didnt hear about this untill it was closed. Some people work or sleep and dont see this untill they get off work or wake up. wish i got this 'advantage' to use this *glitch*, would be great help for tws and nws especially!!

Banning people for this makes no sence. Its pwi their mistake, the site apearently mentioned to try again in 10 minutes. they gave people to much credit thinking they wouldnt abuse it if they were aware of this *message*.

a rollback to last maintance is nothing, its just 2 freakin days o.o

So PWI kinda screwed up again. These rewards, the glitching and abuse of tons of rewards.

What have they done in the past? Not rolled back server.

Dreamchaser packs - Just disabled code, heard a few got banned, but didn't see any.

• Result - Tons of players made millions to billions, allowing them a large advantage to free refine or shards essentially
• Result - Other players only got a handful for alts or w/e to get some coin, but mainly xp necks to level, as they were intended to be used for

Goonz - Reduced XP for goonz to next to nothing. (still works i believe)

• Result - Tons of players level not only their mains to max level, but tons of alts to 100, essentially allowing them to spam BHs for rewards making an XP glitch into a money glitch
• Result - Some may have used to to get to 100 or 101, others just continued using FC normally

Possible Solutions for PWI & Some possible consequences
(just want to point out, PWI is pretty much guaranteed to loose players now no doubt about it.)

1. Roll back - Currently the favored choice
   • Consequences - With 2x going on, tons of sales, & charge rewards; more things have happened in the past few days then would normally happen in a week. Especially if they wait till after TWs or NWs, then its going to be a horrible roll back. People who bought and transferred tons of zen with the rewards would probably get screwed and lots of other would quit the game
2. Leave as it is
   • Consequences - Tons of players who didn't benefit will probably quit the game except for those who are quite vested into the game and +12 and all.
3. Compensate players who didn't get to abuse or chose not to.
   • Consequences - Very minimal as people who benefited will be happy, and those who didn't will be happy as well.
   • Compensation? - Get list of items people received in mailbox. average out the number of times people received the set of items over 1 (so don't count people who only got 1 per-account). And send that to all players who did not get greater then 1 set. They may not get like 50 as some other players did, but they'll get some and that will appease most of the population without **** the server up more.
   • Addition Measures - Release new content ASAP and should include greater refines (+15 or so), newer shards, new classes, and most importantly - Newer sets of gears that are G17 or higher. Now if people wanted to transfer over the refines and all, they would do as they normally do with chienkuns. This won't make G16 +10 obsolete, but players who might have been lacking in benefits, will not truly be at as much of a disadvantage after attaining the new gears. As for the people with +10 gears, will be more likely to keep their until they can work hard to afford better refines on the other gears.
   • Why specific player compensation you ask? - Because when you do server wide things, catastrophes like this happen. Also, for players that benefited, will just get richer, and though the poor get richer, they are still poor compared to the rich.
   • Why 5x won't work - It will just crash the whole economy. From illusions stones, which used to be 14-16m, dropped to 10-12m which will now drop to 5m or less. 5x should only be for xp, for players so that they can make up for not gained.
4. Remember PWI, ROLLBACK = **** your cashers & thus loosing your paycheck. All the charge rewards, gold transfers and everything that may have been purchased and pack rewards won, SoT, shards, equipment, etc... That just means a lot of chargebacks and I know that't not good for any business.
