Incorrect. If you don't want the answer, don't ask the question.

It's never made sense to me that they allow banned players to keep posting on an alt.

You should be thanking him.

Your posting is bad enough now. Imagine it with no one to cover your ass for you.

Aside from trying to discuss moderation actions, have you seen any indication that forums were the appropriate place for a conversation you wanted to keep private?

Nope!


Thank you for providing us with prompt responses. In that case, could you kindly let us know what is being planned to provide a fair and appropriate compensation for the investors who were disenfranchised by the devaluation of their investments on Ishukone Special Edition & Women's Executor (Red/Gold)?

Wouldn't it be only fair that we are compensated for another set of unique items currently non-existant in the market as part of returning our financials to the previous status while simultaneously providing us with the reparation for all the inconvenience this issue has caused?


I am working with Torfi to resolve this situation for everyone as quickly as possible. As this affects several hundred pilots we want to make sure that we are doing it right and as fairly to everyone as possible.

There are two different scenarios here and the issue of the Ishukone shirt and Executor coat are different. I will explain why:

Ishukone Sterling Shirt - Issued over a very specific time frame. This item should only be valid for pilots who participated in the PLEX offer which happened in October 2011.

Women's Executor Coat -Part of the Russian Collectors edition which is still in circulation. While still a rare item, there will be more added to the game naturally as more people pick up a copy of the Russian box.

I will aim to provide an update tomorrow on exactly what we plan to do. That plan is almost final, however, I do not want to state something which may change in the next 24 hours.


Dear CCP Navigator and CCP t0rfifrans, it's been a week and half and we still haven't received any response regarding this issue. Could you kindly keep us updated on what is going on? Waiting for a day was already hard enough. Waiting for another week? =/

So what you're saying is, that investing in virtual goods owned by a corporation you have no control over might not be a wise move. I can see why you're upset and hope CCP doesn't make a habit of making special edition items common, but I just can't get that upset with you over a shirt especially, since the shirt was a bonus gift given on top of a normal purchase of a PLEX packet.Lol


If im honest i could be bothered to read through all fo the posts here but i think this one pretty much sums up a perfect response and its done on the front page. Your upset over a virtual shirt, that was given away as a free gift, for buying something else you got use out of. Get over it.

What's there to argue regarding the validity of my points? CCP already told us that reissuance of ISHUKONE Shirt was a mistake on their part and assured us that some kind of reparation will be provided.

I am just waiting here, waiting for CCP's promised answer.

…actually, no reparation was promised — just that they'd try to think of something “fair”.

The fair thing to do, obviously, is to give people back the 500 AUR they spent on a free shirt. Blink
