In recent weeks we have seen a few forum threads come up on petition reply times; specifically about the longer waiting times then you may be used to. because we strive to be as transparent as possible we (customer support) have decided to have a 5 day experiment where we will update you on some petition statistics on a daily basis. This experiment will start today (2012.06.04) and will end Friday (2012.06.08).

Last week I provided the following numbers:

IMPORTANT
Note that these do not represent all petitions as some types of cases have to be handled using special procedures; these may take longer to be resolved. Examples of these types of cases are: hacking and account sharing, botting, RMT, ISK buying, account disputes and any escalated cases. Thus you may have an open petition that is older then the numbers provided above.

You should make this a permanent thing. Also, add a counter for all the instances where the petition was something trivial, or redundant. You know, the type that reads something like "wtf is dis wardeck xploit??/ i jus tryed to mien wit copr but greefers go to shotting us? how do i stop dem from atacking us or have gm help plz??" The type we tell them not to file after a lengthy explanation of the rules and spirit of the game, only to be told to "stfu" and "get ready for [our] ban, noobs?"

Yes, that one. I would really like to know how many of those you get. Twisted

I wrote some true EVE stories! And no, they're not of the generic "my 0.0 alliance had lots of 0.0 fleets and took a lot of 0.0 space" sort. Check them out here:

And please post the text of the best one in this thread weekly, so it can be properly ridiculed :)

+1 for the transparency

It's cool - although I would personally suggest that you have someone have it converted into a table and put on the website somewhere it can be easily updated, just convert the dates to durations and you're golden.

That is something we thought about, but for now the current format is easily accomplished without getting our web teams involved. Some raw stuff right now is better then nothing.

These statistics take me less than 5 minutes to gather and post. This is not resulting in us answering any less petitions (and this post is made in my spare time, so this is just taking away a few minutes of me prancing around in Skyrim).

Why do the GMs get to play good games, but we don't?

Make petitions cost ISK, with exponential growth.

It will reduce the number of compulsive trash petition users.

Sorry, we really cannot oblige here; that would simply be too sensitive and we do take your privacy seriously. However, if you want to hear about some funny stuff we sometimes encounter, here are two golden examples:
- How can I pause the game?
- Haw can I save my game?

I understand petitions being a queue and waiting times being high etc but 11 days and counting and I'm still yet to hear on from my petition that was meant to be forwarded to a senior GM. My petition is of the utmost importance, my character sold, my isk gone, my assets gone and even lost some skills somehow.... I have T2 sentry drones and T2 large blasters but now I don't.

My patience is wearing extremely thin and everyday I check my email and still nothing, not even a god damn progess update. I've never known any kind of customer service for any kind of game being so utterly slow. I'm almost certain that the GM's are just ignoring my petition in with the impossible chance that i'll forget about it or something?!

I've sent many more updates to my petition asking nicely for some kind of update but they don't even have the decency to respond......
