Instead of taking the opportunity to make a massive complaint on the latest problems the company has been having, you prefer to blame players that have nothing to do with the game's development/management.. they can't even make a compensation for archosaur without breaking all apart and needing to do even more fixing and **** even more, and you say you are unhappy and it's players' fault and they all should be punished and have their houses burnt blablabla lol ... sigh
Gladly, PWE won't take any of your senses of justice as reference to do what should be done, because they don't want to lose money, either one way or the other. They will try to balance for all sides and no side will be 100% happy, so you can just decide if you'll keep playing or not based on that.

so a 2 week ban right when double drop and the black friday sale ends.
Good job PWI. Not sure how you call this justice for those who do not abuse glitches in this game.
You are pretty much sending a message that any glitch can be abused and a mere 2 week ban is all you will get- no matter how game breaking or unbalancing.Here we go again....0 -

Eru did nothing wrong, there were about 3 people in Relic that had more then 6 orbs. So we've got nothing to worry either. Have fun in game and see you next TW b:dirtyTime to nut up, or shut up. -Tallahasse b:shocked0 -

So waiting for a GM to let us know that these **** 2 week bans serve some kind of alternative purpose...i mean it would be nice to know they can at least remove any orbs remaining on the people that they ban...and the refines they unfairly received....otherwise WTF is the point of a damn 2 week ban. ANY GM care to respond at all or are the players just going to continue to get disgusted with pwi till u lose more and more people?[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]0

Response to a thread in which involves the compensation situation:
_________________________________________
UPDATE (11.25.13)
Questions and Answers
What is the punishment for players who blatantly abused the compensation code?
They will be banned.
I heard from Customer Service tickets that you are only banning players who are from Archosaur. Is this true?
No, I was confused about this when I heard about it. The customer service representatives were mis-informed on the punishment issue, and we're making sure everyone is now on the same page. We're banning players who abused the code no matter the server they are from.
What about the "targeted" compensation efforts for Archosaur only? Is that still happening?
Yes. We are getting everything set up now and verifying that it will go smoothly before we start sending in-game items to players on Archosaur. You can expect yours within the week.
Why is it Archosaur only now, and not all servers, as it was initially, when I missed my chance at the code?
First and foremost, Archosaur players were the ones we've wanted to make sure were compensated for the rollback, to the best of our ability. It was because of the rollback that we started focusing on a compensation campaign. We have 5x EXP going on for Archosaur, something we've never done before, as well as 2x EXP/SP/Drops AND Coin for all servers (also new).
Players on Archosaur now have the opportunity to gain more experience, spirit, drops, etc than they could have during the 3 days lost from the rollback, as these modifiers will be lasting into the next month. All servers were included in this decision because we wanted everyone to feel compensated for November's server connectivity issues as a whole.
(The initial compensation code for 5x HyperEXP Stones is now available for everyone: 3HTYJKE)
Following these initial actions, we still thought that for a rollback, our actions were not great enough. Many players lost refinement and thus power during the rollback, and so giving more exp/sp/drops/coins if you play wouldn't resolve their complaint.
Thus we came up with the compensation code that we all now are aware of.
Unfortunately, because of it's abuse we've had to cancel the cross-server compensation and refocus back on the initial goal of compensating Archosaur Rollback players.
Is there anything I can receive right now?
We've re-activated the initial compensation code that gives out 5x Hyper EXP Stones to players. It can be used once per account until NOVEMBER 30th
You can redeem it here once per account until NOVEMBER 30th : 3HTYJKE
There is no shouting with this one...

Mod edit because it appears people refuse to scroll down enough to read:
UPDATE:
We've disabled the code while we investigate the situation of code abuse.
^This is the reason why the code is saying it has expired when you try to enter it!
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 (11.22.13):
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 world chat.
This is the reason why there will not be a rollback.
Awesome, so PWI is going to get banned to all the players who they think abused of the code, fantastic, for a incompetence of their team putting an code in the reedeem page than never said you wouldnt get more than 1, and when it said to you than you would get more rewards each 10 mins, soooo Perm ban to all thats accounts its the best and no rollback the server?
Be rdy to have some Legal actions, or give me back all my thousands dolars than i spent here.
This is not players fault, its GM's fault. So the players now have the fault to be out of the terms? I would ask, was the terms on the reedeem page? was the terms on the oficial facebook page???? how the people was going to know you couldnt get more than 1 time the rewards if you tell to all then you can get MORE THAN 1 EACH 10 MINS. this is scamm. If gm's would wanted fix anything, ban ppl is not the right, since it was a company fault. If the gm's wanted fix this, it needed be rerolled the server or just dont doanything.0 -

So you ban people who probably spent a few hundred dollars on the. +11 and +12 star orbs that you put on sale the following week? Hmm selfish much? No wonder I do not participate in any code offers given.0

Um no....they are banning people that abused a glitch in the code system has nothing to do with their sale.[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]0 -

dear,
That wasnt on facebook oficial page or in the redeem page
People who dont read the forums and just the redeem and the oficial page cant know about that. People who got thats orbs from the wc who ppl were spaming codes cant know that if PWI dont say it in the redeem page and in the oficial facebook page.
Please, if you dont know about what you are talking about, dont talk then. I have proofs of what im talking 0 -

This isn't probably accurate - but PWI did create demand for +11 / +12 orbs by giving away loads of free +10 orbs to the unscrupulous.
Meanwhile, anyone that saved, farmed or spent whatever they could afford have now been surpassed by the freeloaders. Couldn't they have used a sliding scale?
1 week for every orb over 12 +
2 weeks for every orb over 25 +
4 weeks for every orb over 50
At least those claiming to be helpless innocents "caught in the net" would have been on the extreme low-end of the scale.
But expecting anything different from PWI after the Love, Up and Down fiasco, dragoons glitched for like a year, and (on our server) 24h bot farming of all herbs is rampant and goes unpunished -- I guess is a hopeless pipe dream.
The message is LOUD AND CLEAR - PWI doesn't care if you exploit - that part of their ToS is largely BS as their actions don't actually reflect that they take it seriously.
But I am surprised PWI is letting people get away with stealing thousands (millions?) of dollars from them - as it will only encourage it in the future. Since the boutique sales ARE THEIR source of revenue I would think would damage their business model.0 -
Have you noticed some bans on your servers yet ?
For Morai I didn't see any, but we can see several people with some R9.3 parts bound and +10 that were only +6 before the abuse
And just one thing about the fact that PWE could have did it on purpose before +11-12 : it can't be true (or they are dumb). Actually :
1) people that had free +10 won't need to buy them
2) those same people that were not already full+10 probably can't afford buying +12
3) some even had free +11/12 thanks to huge amount of free event gold~ Sage Mystic 105-105-105 ~

I think it is unfair know people who never care if a gold and +10 armor is all I'm working on armor and have unrefined. I spend money on gold and this leads me to think it's better not to charge more and wait for the bugs.
I know people who have used all the bugs in the game to get more benefits eg Dreamcheaser pack, Fc and last orb . I want 30 +10 orb and not play for a month0 -

I bet if you were at an ATM to withdraw a $20 dollar bill and it started spitting out hundreds of them, you would blame the bank and want to keep the money huh....
I'm so tired of peeps that KNEW PWI wasn't purposely handing out endless amounts of orbs and abusing the glitch, crying foul!0 -
Lol Eva don't worry ^^ she's just vomiting words because she spent too much on her gear to see people getting things for free. I didn't abuse any code, I didn't get banned so I'm not worried about anything.0

And what would be a fair response from the bank then? Close their bank account for a duration of time? Perma ban? Keep all the persons funds and tell them to gtfo for abusing their ATM?
No, the bank would ask that the money be returned, and apologise for their faulty ATM. This is a cop out at solution, the easiest and most pain free solution for the GMs workload, a slap on the wrist for abusers but they get to keep all the 'illgotten $20 bills'.DarkSkiesx - Demon Archer

Just in case you missed the redeem page said " u can use code again after 10min "
Everyone quotes that, but it's not what it said. The page stated something along the lines of "please come back in 10 minutes". It is kind of misleading, they should made it "Please try again in 10 minutes, the site is too overloaded atm." But it never said you can redeem the code again.
I hope they at least take the refines from the people who abused it. Because, you know, I wouldn't mind a 2 week ban for lots of free orbs. Think about what you're teaching your playerbase.[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]
