SAD story of how nobody care about lifetimer

Where to begin. Im lifetimer since open beta with coming and going. Me income ingame is going from Dil exchange when i play with it so i dont need to grind and i do what i want to do .

And there where the SAD story started .

May 15 - from previous day, i put some orders to buy zen for 154 which was there. Some was bought. But meanwhile price went down. SO i wanted to withdraw the stuff. It wasnt working . was getting internal error. So 6520 zens was hanging there. ( picture 1-2 )

http://i59.tinypic.com/69nu40.jpg


That happened to me in the past and i know that maintnance clear that up so i wasnt worried. Was busy couple of next days and handt time for sto much. So when i payed attention to sto. After maintnance i noticed, its still hanging there. Found that weird. so i decided to wait for next one . Didnt helped also.

So MAY 27 - ( picture 3 ) http://i62.tinypic.com/jfkj6b.jpg

Sending ticket to UI deparment . As you can see response is, Send a ticket ingame . Found that silly, why you send me to ingame. when i write you here. But ok. I did that right away and started waiting.

For long time nothing was happening. So told myself. Looks like its black hole , lets try another way.


June 16 : Creating a topic on forum . And praying someone will notice it . http://sto-forum.perfectworld.com/showthread.php?t=1144581

And to me suprise Frosty did with comment. Ill look into it. So that put me hopes up. But nothing happened. I try to ask, any progress and then little bumping it . Nothing

So was getting frustrated. That noone is doing anything about MONEY issue.


June 26 . Trendy show up on Risa. Thanks to Foundry stuff. I manage to catch him and talk to him and point it to me issue. His responses were , did i send a ticket. I did. So he noted it and told me, he will pass it along when he will be back in office. I said ill send him reminder in few days which i did on 1 July. ( pic 4 )

http://i61.tinypic.com/d9mqo.jpg


No response. Nothing happening .


Mad was chatting in the fleet channel . What should i do. One dude tried to offer solution . Try tweeting geko. That he respond quite often . So tried that. Nothing happened ( this one was kinda desperate move )


So 7/7
So shouting with frustration on risa, what to do . Got that a tip. Try ticket with zen transfer issue. there they respond quite quickly. So send them message. Response was it should work now, wait for update. So i did. 2 days ago it went through. ZEN still stucked with internal error. Sending them info . Response it must be ingame bug. Please send a ticket in game. I DID THAT MANY WEEKS AGO . ( PIC 5 )

http://i61.tinypic.com/254x543.jpg

So now 3 days to July 15 . So in 3 days it will be 8 weeks since i got zen stuck there.

This service which CRYPTIC provide is kinda pushing people very much to STAR CITIZEN. I Can understand that ingame bugs take time . But that NOONE CARE about money issue problem. Was planning to be there like in ratio 80 : 20 . With this. it will be almost 100 percent of me free time .

Well done Cryptic. WELL DONE

    Some bugs take a while to work on due to other projects or higher priority bugs. Took them about a year or so to finally get to an Accolade bug.

    Definitely disappointing! I hope you get some sort of resolution to your issue soon. Real money issues and premium content should be a priority but PWE has this attitude of not caring once they have your money.

    This is actually not uncommon. Lots of players have issues that only they or maybe them and a few others experience. This makes it far more difficult for cryptic to track down the problem. Hence, why its so I.portant to include as much I to as possible about your system and connection and location. But no matter how you look at it, a single player experiencing a specific problem that only affects them is a lot lower on the priority list than problems that plague many players, or make the game unplayable. Of course, this isnt the o my issue the OP has. How do you expect someone to help you and figure out your problem when its so hard to understand them? Poor communication is a huge player in issues not being resolved. It saddens me that so many players are so quick to blame the game developer instead of looking at what they themselves could do to help first. And if you're really going to suggest that this issue is gonna make you go play star citizen, then please, go for it. Its the single largest money sink for pay to win players that exists. Anyone who donated to help get it going has a tremendous head start on you.

    For me: Money issue should be on the top1 of to do list, no matter what .

    ghyudt : this wasnt first time this happened to me . Yes. its quite common that it get stucked. And i didnt report this for the first time. ( previous time usual weekly update helped. This time it didnt ) They had all the information there. And they could easily ask the question . Could you provide more information ? They didnt asked.


    AND about this bug. THEY GOT IT RIGHT THERE. On the silver plate. I dont know what else i could PROVIDE.


    mirrorchaos : For star citizen, i need a new Pc, which im gonna build next year. So im not out yet And i stated : with this : almost 100 percent of me free time " that ill play SC. doesnt mean total 100 percent. But will be here rarely

    That's just awful! I feel so bad for you, that was so much money! :(

    Perhaps they did wish to help you, but where not allowed to for some reason, and where then too embarrassed to speak up again after promising that they would. I have heard some bad things and similar stories from others, I'm not sure what would be the matter. But let's not jump to any conclusions on this matter just yet. I also feel other players shouldn't hate on each other, this is our gaming community and we should be able to support one another and offer help or advice when someone has a stressful issue like this to deal with! If something had come up for me, I would like to have the confidence to think I could bring it up and have my friends or the games staff assist me.

    The Doom thread would be the worst place to talk of this, that is just a reserve for people who are just playing around, you would end up feeling worse from the reply's that would follow there. If you have something difficult that you think needs to be heard, then post about it as you did, to get the word out there, someone may have an answer for you.

    ironically if this if genuine would be even worse then someone telling you as it is on a doom thread. all you get is a kind smile and not a whole lot more.

    THAT was a good one, I remember that one...

    I'd be a whole lot more sympathetic to OP if (a) xe had used proper English, (b) xe hadn't misgendered Trendy (I do NOT like it when everybody just assumes that important people are dudes), and (c) xe hadn't been quite so abusive towards Cryptic.

    Some bugs are harder to deal with than others. Some bugs are easier to deal with than others. This looks like it's just a very tough bug to deal with.

    I agree somethings may take a while or be impossible to fix. But if it where me, I would like to be contacted every so often so I know they where still working on it and cared, who wouldn't? Answers can come up we may not like, but you should give the poor guy some relief.

    Protesting Cryptic doesn't seem like a good solution ether, but it wasn't my money so I can't condemn the OP for his frustration. Don't give up on them yet, they might not have a solution at this time to give you, and I'm sure there is a good explanation for what is going on, please Cryptic, talk to him and help him out.

    Most sad thing on this is : Is it really that MASSIVE problem . To Manually UNBLOCK IT ?

    They can easily copy me char to study it. And me actual playing character can have me zens back

    Practically, you were robbed of $ 60, I do not know what else should have a higher priority than solve this bug. Moreover,the Cryptic should send least another 6250 Z as an excuse for they were not able to do anything with it for so long.
    I totally do not understand why they do not do anything that , it is on the accusation ! You've sent them the money that is stuck in the system, they promised to do something and do not do.
