    I hope there is a rollback in with this as well, with people getting thousands of supply tokens for no work.

    There are no concerns of data loss, security, or anything of that nature.

    Lucky!

    Because they had a different 'solution' for that fiasco. This is easily fixed since servers were up for not even 30 minutes? I'm not holding my breath though. *Inb4more+10orbcompensation*

    there will be no roll backs, since its even less damage than 10*orb fiasco
    and like always they dont give a damn about it
    but hey you should be used to that kind of treatment already b:chuckle
    pwi had always handled this kind of issue by ignoring the players

    Yeah its upsetting, i couldda used a few tokens as well. it stings so bad knowing that other players got them in abundance, i'd rather we all get some or nobody get any at all. But it doesn't work like that i guess. It would be so funny to see these users who got 999+ tokens for doing Nothing, to see their reaction if a server rollback did come, theoretically of course it more than likely wont happen. Try and stay humble.

    You said it was a data center issue. Now its a networking issue. Shows that no one knows what is wrong, or there is a severe lack of communication at the offices.


    Just curious will there be any compensation at all? I see people in world chat raging about it, was just curious.

    i now understand why they considered compensation for server downtime.

    working overtime every week i don't have a lot of off days.

    no fks were given. when u make this kinda money, u should make sure your #*(@ works. go lick a duck pwe.

    So what is the compensation for the people that couldn't go to NW, and others gaining 2-3K tokens?

    i also lost a full platinum HP charm on my auto cultivate, because it stayed online without moving while mobs were hitting it till it died, not to mention de gaurdian scroll ( even tho it's cheap, it has be mentioned )

    SO people getting 2k+ tokens for 10 minutes of NW most didn't even get to attend because we didn't constantly refresh PW.

    Whats the official response to that? is it the same, "Its a shame this happened and you didn't abuse it, it wont happen again but we don't really care about the imbalance this caused"

    Cause i for one am tired of this trend PWE. Depending on how this plays out I might just end up asking for friends offline info and uninstalling & deleting all my PW stuff

    OK so people get 2k supply tokens for logging in 1 min sooner than me tonight in NW. Thats great considering you let people spam +10 orbs all night just a few months ago. Let me guess..
    "It was only a hand full of people, so it wont effect the server" again right? nice going gm's lets see how great you do with coming up with this excuse.

    I really hope this is a joke.

    Sparky, lets see if your as true to your word as you said in the past. How is this injustice to be fixed? Will it be fixed?

    If not, i can tell you now i WILL quit playing come April, there's a better game to play when it launches.

    You can be rest assured i will NOT be cashing anymore. I'm tired of getting maggotts in my rice.

    I've thought about it and i figured out, there is really No way for them to compensate us if they wanted to, Whatever we get the guys who already got the 1-2k supply tokens would Also get it too. So it'll be like the rich getting richer.

    I demand compensation for east coast servers being down (resulting in supply token glitch) even though my server was completely unaffected.

    Come on, you guys did it last time. b:chuckle
    I would appreciate it if PWE explored the same logic to handle this situation.

    One does not exclude the other. Datacenters have their own internal network or the fault could be with the datacentre-to-internet connection.

    @Sparky: Suggest this to the GMs. Consult the playersbase of the server that has failed for compensation suggestions. Don't leave the decision to them, just... poll the playerbase and come up with ideas that way.

    Some east coast servers went down at that time too. Just no one else gave a ***

    This isnt the issue, the issue is that as always pwe cant run a game to save their lives.

    Not without alienating their player base and/or completely making a pigs ear of any given technical issue that then ultimately leads to a half assed job at either fixing the issue or appeasing their customers. That pay a lot of cash for service in any other walk of life would be rejected outright and people wanting their money back.

    But hey its pwe we do what we want its in the ToS.... you gotta read the ToS
    (Terms of ****) -cough- Its in the ToS so tough luck!! We dont need to compensate you anything, but when we do we'll totally **** it up and make all you guys happy??? So ungrateful. b:shutup

    Rince and repeat....

    This is why im sick of it. Same old same old. So long b:bye

    Its not fair that only some are getting supply tokens for not doing anything... if you are going to give out supply tokens then everyone should get supply tokens.

    Maybe you will see the failure in this when people start leaving the game and you start losing money!! b:angry

    lol, everyone raging about NW last night, yeah, it was 20-25 minutes of NW, and yeah a few of people got a LOT of tokens, but you can't rollback for this. There was no ToS breach by going to NW when everyone else didn't. If you really wanted to do NW, you couldn't checked the servers every 20-30 minutes, like I did in between games of League. Server came up, I did NW, I got paid for my participation. Simple as that, no fraud, no hax, just clean legitimate playing.

    Well said. Those who were paying attention and got back in (unfortunately I wasn't paying close enough attention, or I would have gladly joined NW) didn't do anything wrong. Sure, 95% of us missed a night of NW, but its not like this massively changes the NW market or anything...the "normal" amount of tokens distributed to each player per NW were just distributed to a smaller pool of individuals who paid attention and got back in as soon as servers were up.

    What will people want a rollback for next? Receiving chips as their BH reward? Let's be serious for like 2 seconds... b:laugh

    This^

    It's the flagship instance in the game. Has been since it's inception.

    It's only run's twice a week and for most it's the only way to make coin in good quanty.

    Yes you can BOT (which btw is a joke in itself) but isnt a possibility for a large number of people.

    @Angels_Age Yes i agree with your comments, but it's the cumulative affect of event's that's happened. Even before the Ocean Orb fiascio. Which btw was something to be truely proud of. Wish i had that on my CV.

    Simple truth is, this game is a complete nonsence now. Both in the game's direction in term's of development and the way it's managed. Or not. Sad.... perhap's i have just reached the end if the road playing this game. b:sad
