Runes of Magic US / AU

Quoted from "RoMage;512349"

@Dio,


Yeah, if we got all the bad EU things (not thinking of FEU staff :p, more like prices and broken support), give as also some good things. I assume DIAS npc is next move to stop all QQ-nes that it's not fair to have them on EU and not on US servers.

If that is the case i personally will be ecstatic, but don't hold your breath, and on another note, Thanks for at least letting us know we aren't (Hopefully) going to live in our dark closet we have been in the past...*looks at calender*...yikes 6+ months.

Compensation packages, eh? Sounds familiar. Kind of like those Warden reset stones. And the deal with Reni. What they are doesn't directly affect me since I only lost a cheap table and got it back within the week, but I won't be holding my breath. Please confound my cynicism.

No, it is not shelved

We just want to make sure those packages are fitting for those who lost stuff, hence why we review them a lot.

What you say here is pretty much feeding in to one of my fears with these compensation packages.

==ALMOST EVERYONE== lost their chests.

Not just the people who took out tickets.
Not just the people who vocally complained about it.
Not just the people who opened up itemized reimbursement requests.

Lets not forget there was a point where in-game players were told by Frogster not to open up tickets saying our chests were missing.

Compensation, to be fair, needs to be given to every character on each of the effected servers who has a housing number below the highest housing number in existence at the time of the bug. Bottom line.

That will make the distribution of compensation fair & even. Otherwise you're only compensating those who requested through multiple formats, not everyone who was wronged.

... and for some reason the button to edit the post I just made is not there.

But I'd like to add, that to Dionaea I issue this challenge:

Go to the affected servers. Take a two dozen random house numbers below the highest housing number that existed at the time of the housing chest bug... visit those houses.

If those houses have a housing chest, the review that account's item shop purchases since the housing bug and see if that chest was purchased after the housing chest bug.

I hazard a guess you'll find not a single one of the houses you visit has a housing chest that was originally there, whether the account is active, inactive, or somewhere in between.

Amen! +1

It's bad, but it's not THAT bad. You're not making mountains out of moleshills, but you're making Rockies out of Smokies. I know several players who lost a lot of stuff, and I also know several who lost nothing. Most people I know lost a few things and got them back when the script was run, which is my own experience as well. My main and all my alts still have the original free chest I was given when I opened each house. Yes, the situation is bad, but don't exaggerate.

Im not talking about items lost from chests.

Everyone lost something.

Some people lost fortunes, some people lost pocket change.

However, everyone was wronged no matter what degree of loss was incurred.

You're from Govinda.

You may have heard stuff, you may have friends who play there who you get 2nd hand info from, but im willing to bet a house chest you have no first hand experience of what Osha and Indigo have been through.

maybe its just me, and some of my guildies but we felt pretty compensated with the gashas on sale this past weekend. considering the tp and xp amulets are 250 dias a piece, 5 pack of puris about 125 dias, plus the 3 goldenhammers say 25 per on sale , and the phx redemptions. for 59 dias they were a steal.

Unfortunately, that only rewarded current diamond buyers that were online when they were bugged. It did not compensate anyone that stopped buying after their chests full of CS items disappeared. It also did not help anyone that could not be online when the gashas were bugged.

Osha or Indigo? No, I don't even have alts on those servers. Do you have first-hand experience on Govinda either? Cause we had our fair share of crap the fourth quarter of last year. We had a couple weeks during which the game was unplayable. Many people lost a lot of stuff with the furniture bug. Most got it back, some didn't. I only lost a table, which was no big deal. But I know someone who lost a whole collection of clean mana stones, including T8s. Maybe I've misunderstood you, but when you said to go to the "affected" servers, you included Govinda, whether you knew it or not.

We will close this thread down now.
