We have been getting rewards, even in ties we get 13 badges and 5 glorious packages. This is nice cause im getting close to the +325 all attributes title.

So any mention from a GM/CM about this? It is rather insulting not getting rewards... or is this the norm now.

This is why we don't like changes to things, IT IS NEVER DONE RIGHT

This is getting bad, the one person in the guild that should be getting stuff has repeatedly not gotten anything. She does all castle defenses along with anything else we need, plus she gets kills and heals etc and yet gets nothing! Now I came here thinking it may be a possibility of an answer from someone in some sort of position on this. Is it and any other number of issues going to be fixed at patch or is this just another "I will forward the complaint" or better yet "We are working on it" To bad someone around here does not know what they are doing so they could tell us so we would know something

It's weird that this thread has re-emerged now, because this past siege was the first time we DID get rewards for winning.

I think I've totaled like 30 or so badges since Chapter 5, missing siege like 2 nights (forgot to sign up). Is getting ridiculous..

we've faced several guilds who have earned ZERO rewards, no badges, no packages, not even honor points. For the most part our guild as a whole has never not received anything BUT there are a select few players who greatly benefit us by doing what they do that have gotten nothing. Last night was the first night one of my characters got nothing (and it was one that killed guards and tried to capture a tower), am I upset about it? sure. But I'm more upset that a guild member has CONSISTENTLY gotten shafted by bad programming especially when they do an amazing job of defending our castle. And as much as I hate our opponents during siege, I feel terrible when entire guilds get nothing, not even a losers package.

Please don't tell me Runes of Magic is adopting that 2 is not winner and 3 no one remember reward policy.

Our problem seems to be almost exclusively against Corruption. We've sieged them about 2-3 times, won, and got nothing, while they got losing rewards.

Seems kind of pointless to siege, use pots, waste an hour of our time to get absolutely [redacted]

How nice that GMs can be considerate enough to edit our posts and delete ones yet they have NO COMMENT on this. How about the GMS be productive instead of forum trolls.

Does anyone remember what players did in the past to ensure they received siege rewards? Hathore mentioned something on Reni but I am unable to find the thread. I vaguely remember something about logging on and off at a specific time.

Hey, siege war is for fun. No rewards or rewards, it doesn't matter. Siege is siege.
What needs to be done is the changing back of the SW time to 7-8 PST.

Tell that to the guilds who win with 4 towers, get no packages while the losing guild gets winning rewards. Those badges for titles can get nice really quickly

I disagree. I have no way to earn several of the siege titles if I continue not to receive badges regardless of if we win/lose/tie. I also can no longer help my guild mates up their crafting levels so that they in turn can continue to benefit our guild, as the honor points were an additional reason to siege. My guild gets no resources from the packages either, because they are missing.

This is extremely unfair, and needs to be fixed. It is not due to our guild members crashing out of siege shortly before SW ends, as Hathore suggested yesterday- as everyone, regardless of offline or online + in siege when it ends, gets no badges, honor points or victory/durable supply packs.

I will agree with changing the time back to 7-8 PST, as siege signups at 1 in the morning for the majority of us on the east coast is brutal, especially to not receive much but "that was kinda fun" in the end.

So there are rumors floating around that it is because we don't win flawlessly (because we cap and hold towers instead of getting the castle crystal). This dosent explain why we dident get packages on loss.

Much as I'd like to simply switch our strategy to earn rewards- one way is no more valid than the other, at least according to the game coding. You can win siege by capping and holding more towers than the other guy. The crystal is an extra way to win siege- but it is not necessary in order to do so.

The rewards should go to whomever wins/loses, regardless of the outcome of the matchup. Right now we're not getting anything for having even participated, except a 2 minute epeen boost for most of our players if we win. They need to do one of the following:

(A) provide another way to earn the siege rewards in game. This already applies to the guild resource packages, as they are available in the IS, and honor points can be provided by winning in the Arena- but the badge loss is not currently available to be made up anywhere else. Perhaps they could tack these on as rewards for "sieging" with a group against a world boss, or for completing a "worldwide" instance.

(B) Look at the coding or server to discover what is causing entire guilds to not recieve rewards and fix whatever went wrong.

Well now that we got roflstomped by a 3100 point guild, but held them off the crystal until the last 10 minutes of siege. the entire guild received 0 rewards as a loss. And even some of the opponent got nothing, but not all.

Seriously, any word from anyone would be SENSIBLE. Might as well just ask vfwiffo to put out the "official" statement of we are aware of it.

And tonight, not one package for a single person in guild...bad enough putting up with lag and all the other issues since siege is still in 'beta', but to have no badges, etc.? I don't want to hear that it's because of beta, no one believes that since it's a fairly recent issue, it is not because of crashes, etc. since not ONE person in our guild got anything. If you (CM''s) could go yell at someone who could actually do something about this, we'd all appreciate it.
