agreed, the people who ***** the system are now hundreds of millions of coins up, where as i'll still have to grind for a loooong time to get just a fraction of the money they can make from the orbs they have

How will they make money with the orbs? They can't trade, or sell them. And can only use them on bound gear...so how are they going to make 100s of millions?

so GM dont will rollback
active that code again for all

people raging everywhere b:shocked
i should turn on protection and never get out from SZ

time for rage party ppl

lol

this gonna be the best raging party ever in the history of PWI

**** you

Why? Because I didn't abuse a code? Because I think there's a game that WORSE than PWI? Because I sit here on the forums in my off hours trying to get myself a laugh as I answer questions?


Or did the fact that I have Aspergers rub you the wrong way?

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.

So, there are company that make good decisions...and there is PWI ...

UPDATE:

They have now investigated the situation, but they say nothing about keeping the code closed. So yes , i understand that ppl are confused not getting it to work.

Personally i believe that it is in PWE's best interests to resolve this as already stated, because what they have done by issuing this ill fated code is destabilise the cash market.

To explain all I'll refer to is the orbs, event gold and charms per pack.

Those who opened 33 packs are now 99 10* orbs, 33 platinum hp charms and 3300 event gold better off, FOR FREE. They either have full +10 gears or have used event tishas to obtain +11, they will not charge to buy the orbs again no matter what the sale price because nothing is cheaper than free.

Next, they also have enough hp charms to last them months, so no charging there either.

Combine that with the 3300 event gold which equates to 440 free silver hp charms (3300 / 7.50) they will NEVER need to buy another charm for months if not a year, so a further reduction of cash intake.

Then to top it off PWE then has a charge reward promo where those who missed out can spend real cash to catch up, i don't think many people will do this judging by the content of this thread.

I know there are a lot of angry people who have made various quitting threats, but believe me, the company has harmed themselves far greater than any of us could and no, i did not receive anything, my reward for being European and being asleep during this meltdown ��.
