There must be some medical term for people who continue to talk to people who are, in no uncertain terms, not listening to them.

Mr Epeen

It's not really a medical term, but the adjective you're looking for is GÇ£patientGÇ¥.

I would lean more towards arrogant, or more likely, narcissistic. Because you are not really trying to talk to him.

Keep waiting.

All your postings do nothing, but to incite annoyance from the parties adversely affected by CCP's mistake.

I believe that falls in line with the very definition of being a troll and as such, I must "ignore" your postings as well.

Please do keep the bumps up though. I can't be on 24/7.

12. Spamming, bumping and pyramid quoting are prohibited.
Spam is defined as the repetitive posting of the same topic or text or nonsensical posts that have no substance and are often designed to annoy other forum users. This includes GÇ£firstGÇ¥ and GÇ£go back to [another game]GÇ¥ posts. Bumping posts in order to keep them near the top of the list is also prohibited. Petitions or "/signed" posts are a version of bumping and likewise are not permitted. Pyramid quoting is a response to a forum thread that contains the quotes of four or more previous posters, sometimes with additional spaces added unnecessarily. Posts of this nature are not conducive to community spirit and are unwelcome.

Too bad you didn't find that rule before you were banned. People might have actually taken you seriously.

Or not.

Mr Epeen

I for the most part posted off topic, substantial threads. Just because they were locked claiming "Spam" doesn't mean they fit that definition. They were against the rules, sure, but they weren't Spam

And CCP seems to have taken us seriously. So it seems to have worked.


Anyway, this is off topic (like most of the OP's recent posts).

OP: What is the appropriate recompense for something given away for free?

CCP Devs already mentioned that they have devised a plan that would provide a fair compensation for all the affected parties.

It's just that CCP Devs were probably too busy with Alliance Tournaments to implement that plan.

I've provided my opinion/answers and you guys have provided the same for the past two weeks in this 27 page thread.

I am just here, asking CCP to expedite on providing a response that was promised a week and half ago. Having been promised a response, I think we are entitled to be more vigilant in asking CCP since they do tend to forget these matters.

Given the response time for most petitions, waiting a week and a half for a response is about par, you should be more patient.

Ok, so here is the much delayed update. I am sorry that this has taken so long but we needed to run through a seriously complicated process to track down each unique shirt issued before June 25.

So here are the steps that will happen over the next few days to finalize this issue:

1, We will issue the following people a 'Mens Field Marshall Coat':

* Those players who took the PLEX offer in October and kept their shirt based on its exclusivity.
* Players who bought the shirt from an original owner on the basis that it would be an exclusive item. Again, if the owner sold it on then the person who ultimately ended up with the shirt based on owning an exclusive item.

if you received the shirt and sold it or traded for a profit you will not receive this new item.

2, We are updating the item description for this jacket and this will be deployed in the next day or two. Once that deployment takes place we will redeem the item to all relevant account holders. Once this happens i will update the thread letting you know that the item is ready to be redeemed.

There are some edge cases involved with this of players who may have their shirt stored in secure containers or containers in space. These players will need to submit a petition to verify ownership.

It is difficult to give the perfect resolution in cases of this nature and we feel that this resolution benefits the greater number.

Thank you for your patience during this time.

You specified that we will be receiving "Mens Field Marshall Coat." That already exist in the NeX Store with an equivalent price tag of 800M or so.

Space barbie drama. ''I got a coat an now everyone ahs my coat cry, cry cry cry.'' The same people moaning about these coats are the same people who want to have other items all to themselves. Other items such as T2BPO that let them stomp all over noobs with zero effort from their part, At least this crappy coat does not give them huge advantages. CCP should seed t2BPO's on the market for 50 cents too and make them cry some more :)

Thank you for your response, but I believe this brings more questions than answers. You specified that we will be receiving "Mens Field Marshall Coat." That already exist in the NeX Store with an equivalent price tag of 400M or so. Ishukone Shirt's market value prior to the devaluation was 2B. Arn't we still shorthanded?

You claimed before that a solution is in place that would provide a fair compensation for the affected parties.

Will the Jacket that was purchasable in the NeX store remain off the market or return as an AUR item?

I ask this because right now it is an exclusive item as well and may be of some interest to those who are willing to take the risk of speculating on it. If it is returned to the Noble Exchange it just becomes another piece of clothing.

What about the Red/Gold female Executor coat that you also messed around with?

6) There is a group of players who will not be compensated by this change: Those who had buy orders up the day before the isukone release. Those players, such as myself, woke up to find our wallets a few billion lighter, and our hangars filled with worthless shirts. As these players did not own the shirt during downtime when the change was released, they will not be compensated by the scheme you have announced, yet they still lost billions due to your mistake. I believe the best course of action to help these players is to allow the ishukone shirt to remain rare. This way it will recover some of its original value, and traders such as myself will eventually be able to recover some of our losses.
