We shall see, sir. You have vastly more confidence in Gree's abilities to make things right than others do. Their track record is not good.Quote:

Trust me Gree can do nothing. They have randomly removed some items and mods, but im 100% confident they will not fix the infected LB.
You DO know what a glitch is, right?Quote:

That should help GREE out.

They should have stopped the game at the time to make a proper fix, but they didn't do that and there's no way they could now. Bottom line: We have to live with the fact that some players and syndicates got a boost from this mistake, but Gree should take back the items that were in this package and refund the full purchase price. I don't think they'll be able to fix all the other errors they created by not doing a clean fix right away...
You admitted its a glitch in the post I quoted.Quote:

You okay? Normally you make a lot more sense than this...Quote:

Your approach: you agree with the way Gree handled this, which was to ban some players right away, which then put their syndicates in a disadvantage during battles. Other players that bought the package in question were not banned until hours later and were allowed to keep their stat gains and the items they gained for their syndicates, which allowed them to buy more bonuses. In addition, Gree pulled back the gold in question (as well as all the cash in their banks and the current LTB's in some cases for whatever reason), and replace it with a quantity of gold they felt was fair without giving the players any option for a refund.
Since I didn't buy the gold and I'm not in a top syndicate (only a couple players in our syn bought this package as the rest of us play gold free) the impact on my game was minimal. However, I think it's crazy how Some people are trying to call these players cheaters when all they did was push the 'buy' button. Since you're okay with Gree's approach I guess you benefitted from this error either by buying the gold yourself or being in a syndicate that benefitted from these purchases. It's okay if you feel entitled to keep these items. It doesn't make you a bad person.
While we wait for Gree to post a message saying that they are working on unbanning players.
There must be a glitch in the system preventing the unfreezing of those accounts.
But, if it goes on for too long and the players say sod it. I am over it. Does that mean they are then exploiting a glitch in the system and according to the new rule are in danger of being permanently banned ?
our team member doc is still not unsuspended - fix this crapQuote:

I don't think banning the players concerned was a good thing, and said so earlier in this thread. Blocking the use of gold until the issue had been fixed would have been a better approach, assuming that is technically possible without taking the game down completely. But given how long it took to unban the majority of players would either have meant a seriously curtailed war or messing up the entire timetable for a cycle or longer.Quote:

If Gree need to retrospectively charge the cost of the excess gold to those players' accounts, which they have done before remember, that's that. Hopefully though, they can remove items obtained from the glitch gold instead.
The only other way to sort this out would be to give every player who didn't buy the bundle 2,000,000 free gold so they aren't placed at a disadvantage by it.
FWIW, I'm not a gold buyer either
any news about IP these two teams do with that 2m Gold ?Quote:

They said in one of their updates that they would review leader boards and award the prizes teams and individuals would have gotten had it not been for the "glitch". Said it would happen after the events. We have not seen this yet. Both the battle and crate event were set back. Some of us used honestly purchased gold and have been expecting to be compensated as was promised.
Compensated how? You got what you paid for.Quote:

What if, they were banned before they could score, but, still banned after others had the ban lifted, so Blue made 2nd whilst playing under extended restrictions ( as did a couple of other syndicates)Quote:

it really depends what those " adjustments" are. we could start by subtracting any IP scored by a player using the 2m gold on all top ten teams. after reviewing those rankings, the question is what further adjustments would they make. some of the 2m players would have scored about the same. some would have scored far less. and in the case of doc durden who never bought the 2m gold but is still banned, its safe to assume he would have scored more than he had.Quote:

Facts and truth. As we chat about this
Doc did buy the gold. But didn't get the opportunity to fight.
But
As other banned players came online again and could hit for their teams, Doc was overlooked by Gree.
Thus he created a negative balance or prevented from getting points.
OK, I thought he didn't buy it at all. in any case that is the nebulus variable gree must figure out. what did they score, what would they have scored without the gold, what would they have scored without the ban, and ultimately what should their reflected IP score be?Quote:

Technically the gold thing was not our fault, so we didn't cheat...
Not wishing to get bogged down with definitions of words and such but you did, whose fault it was isn't really relevant even if as in this case they made it easyQuote:
