Unless of course when you do. Which you did.
Quote: a. Any losses attributable to errors in the EVE client may not be eligible for reimbursement.
So when I ddos someone's client into submission using the fact that spamming of convo requests from multiple sources can freeze the client, the victim can't even get his stuff back? Awesome.

Edited by: andeira on 11/03/2011 11:38:39 thanks for listing them all usefull info for me (I petition almost never and now even less probably)
Quote:
3. Missions
2. Reimbursements will not be granted in instances where:
c. A mission objective is destroyed or stolen by another player.
Is this a recent change? I have heard from a few people last month that got there mission reset cause they shot the objective. (activating guns instead of tractorbeam)
edit: lol one sec to slow to be first -------------

If you believe it was like that before I am sure that it was just a clarification on their standpoint towards the issue.

Are there stats on reimbursement petitions, such as what percentage gets declined, and how much time is spend on reimbursement petitions compared to other petitions or petition categories?

"3. Ships destroyed by use of the "self destruct" feature or any action initiated by the owner (including but not limited to: recycling, trashing, etc.), whether intentionally or accidentally, cannot be reimbursed."
"1. Items recycled accidentally may be reimbursed on a case-by-case basis, but only if the minerals received have not been moved from the original recycling station and the original resulting "stacks" of minerals have been retained (thus not merged with other stacks of minerals or broken up into smaller stacks)."

Edited by: ArchenTheGreat on 11/03/2011 12:13:17 I think you should clarify this one: "a. Any losses attributable to errors in the EVE client may not be eligible for reimbursement."
I think where is a clear (and confirmed by CCP) bug in EVE client you should reimburse. I know why you put it there but it's too broad statement.

Can you let us know what logs you have available? Because although requiring evidence in server-side logs is completely reasonable, we sometimes have to take on trust that no such evidence exists when in fact it may be the case that the GM cannot find it or is looking in the wrong log because of poor game knowledge about a specific area.
TL:DR. Tell us what logs are available to GMs.

Quote: 3. Missions
Missions may be offered by either NPC agents or as courier missions created by other players.
1. Mission collateral may be required for some missions. This collateral may be refunded in cases where GM investigation shows the mission creation was incomplete or if the mission was impossible to complete within normal gameplay parameters available to the player.
Does that mean if I accept a courier contract with 5 billion ISK collateral to transport something to Jove space I can get that reimbursed? How about a transport to a player outpost that I won't get docking right for?
Got another question:
Quote: 3. Reimbursement will only be granted if a loss is attributable to a bug or server error.
a. Any losses attributable to errors in the EVE client may not be eligible for reimbursement.
Quote: Assets lost to a scam may only be reimbursed if the scammer used a verified bug to hide his intentions to scam.
Is an error something else than a bug? I'm not sure, could you explain if those two rule contradict each other and if not, why a loss due to a bug used for scamming does not fall under "any losses attributable to errors in the EVE client"?

Quote: 3. Any assets sold to another player will not be returned to the original owner; however, any ISK gained from the sale may be transferred to the original owner of the items instead on a case-by-case basis.
4. Reprocessed assets cannot be restored to prior status.
Not nice of you to clearly show the hacker how to make maximum damage/get away with some items. Now anyone accessing another player account knows what to do to get around reimbursement. Facepalm.

Originally by: CCP Policy 1. Items recycled accidentally may be reimbursed on a case-by-case basis, but only if the minerals received have not been moved from the original recycling station and the original resulting "stacks" of minerals have been retained (thus not merged with other stacks of minerals or broken up into smaller stacks).
From what I observe, the client auto-stacks minerals from reprocessing with any currently existing stacks of minerals. Unless that's an option to shut off that stacking somewhere (cba to look to for it atm) or that part of the policy is awkwardly written, it does seem rather poor form to have the client's own functionality make a reimbursement request impossible under this policy.
As I read it, if I had a random unit of trit sitting around and accidentally reprocessed an officer module, I couldn't get that reimbursed since it was merged with another stack of minerals by the client without my intervention. I could be reading it wrong and what CCP means is "you haven't messed with the stacks at all since reprocessing, but it's fine if they were merged with ones you already had initially", but I don't think that's what the words on the page say at the moment. Some clarification seems needed on that point.
Granted, with the new icons on faction and deadspace stuff I find it a lot harder to even make such mistakes (thanks for those by the way), but if you could see an accident coming most people would just avoid it in the first place.
Thanks to Grimmi and the GM team for the update and the other work the GMs do for Eve, even if we don't always like what they have tell us.

Pathetic altering of Reimbursement policies to cover your inability to do your job related to fleet fights, because its just easier to send generic reply to hundreds of players instead of actually doing your job - to provide customer support.

Yep, it does.
And how does this work if you were recycling a pile of ore and accidentally included some modules that should not have been selected? Is the claim invalid due to being part of a ore pile.
Perhaps more worrying, does this mean that you are in fact not capable of tracing mineral properly if they "disappear" into other stacks? Sounds like a freaking huge abyssal gate for mineral "laundering", when combined with malicious intent for RMT.
Also. "2.c" no help if : "A mission objective is destroyed or stolen by another player."
You've got to be kidding. That means any mission where you have to turn in any kind of item. all Mining missions all courier missions quite a number of combat missions - its not just Damsel in distress. Its also things like: smuggler interception, unauthorized military precense, intercept the saboteurs, ... In L4 you rarely have the luxury of being in pickup range of the ship(s) that drop the objective, so anyone waltzing in in a mobile ship and engages, destroys/loots the objective, can now REALLY do some damage. They could before, and that was bad enough, but at least then you could go through the process of getting the item back and avoid the the standing hit. Paradise for determined griefers.

These seem inconsistent - intentional?
Originally by: 2. Lost Ships 3. Ships destroyed by use of the "self destruct" feature or any action initiated by the owner (including but not limited to: recycling, trashing, etc.), whether intentionally or accidentally, cannot be reimbursed.
Originally by: 4. Recycled Items 1. Items recycled accidentally may be reimbursed on a case-by-case basis, but only if the minerals received have not been moved from the original recycling station and the original resulting "stacks" of minerals have been retained (thus not merged with other stacks of minerals or broken up into smaller stacks).
Originally by: 9. Hacking & Account Transfers 4. Reprocessed assets cannot be restored to prior status.
So if your items are reprocessed, you can get them back, but not if they are ships, and not if they were reprocessed by a hacker, correct? New rules also say nothing about accidentally trashing items.

Quote: We approach each petition with the mindset of trying to find a reason to fulfill the player's claim, but if there is no verification to be had we will most likely have to say no. This is what causes the most friction and this is why we feel that our reimbursement policy needs to be well known to our players, as well as the reasoning behind it.
Ok ok, this and using word which starts on S and ends with T in the devblog made me realize this devblog is actually a troll.

So does this mean the end of the "courier contract to player-owned station you can't dock in" scam?
