logged in to see that i have two remaps available, when previously i had zero and would receive a new one tomorrow afternoon. So...everyone who spent their remaps should be getting two, not one. Everyone who had one got bumped up to three.
Im the same, but my m8 is still ****ed over.
Care to explain how you're messed over? My database tells me you have two respecs available to you?

Your mate also has a free respec. He hadn't earned another one through waiting so he only has one.
As to the contact folders: I'm getting rather tired of people thinking that I make game design decisions. I'm a programmer, my just is implementation of decisions made by others. I also like to be active in the community and pass on information when I think it is relevant. I'll say it again: Something had to be dropped from the refactoring due to time constraint.
We had to pick and chose. Such is life. You win some, you lose some. I guess that should tell me to stop whining over being blamed for this. I lose.

Perhaps it is important to re-iterate on this:
The reason people who already had an implicit respec (after waiting for a year or more) got TWO is because if they'd only gotten ONE they would actually have gotten ZERO.
Explanation: They'd already earned ONE through waiting. This is an indisputable fact. The reason they get TWO is because when they remap, they lose ONE free respec and the timer is UPDATED. If they had been set to ONE free respec that would leave them at ZERO and with a refreshed timestamp. That's ONE respec they can do after having earned one through waiting and getting another one from us.
Those that had not earned anything have their free respec. You can chose to use it whenever you want but when you gain a new one through waiting it's not going to increment that numbers. You cannot hoard free respecs by design.
Again: If you had no respecs you were, effectively, reset a year back giving you a respec. If you were already a year back resetting you a year back would give you nothing. Please bear in mind that waiting for two years does not grant you two respecs. They do not accrue!

I disagree with this point, in my case you havent given me anything FREE, all you have done is move my remap date by around 20 days or so.
Yes, I understand your point and can appreciate that you want a free respec. I'm not telling you the design is flawless, but the implementation is by design.
You respecced later than someone else, you do not get a respecc but he might. You subscribed before someone else, you got the Echelon, he might not. Not perfect, perhaps not just and I'll leave that up for philosophical debate but certainly gave everyone the possibility of respeccing now.
