Would have been nice for that announcement to be put into this thread by a Dev, or the article to be in the launcher news.

Anyway - thank you Rylande for updating us.

@ CCP - please can you update any future announcements on this subject to this thread as well. As you put in the previous announcement, we could look / discuss in this thread.

Heads should roll however it probably won't go high enough!!

Check post #133, a dev has stated that the reimbursement would be pushed back :)

Another GM alt spotted

who reads these posts besides GM's unless they have to and everyone knows how easy it is to trawl through - right- ?

Besides, I put a support ticket in straight after it happened and the written response was "this will be done automatically during downtime within the next few days".

Perhaps they should have said months or whenever we get people free from making new skins.

Whatever.

Totally agree with you, I had the same "will come back at next patch" then "we're aiming at next downtime" and now it's "we're HOPING to do something by the end of the week"

If they don't know what's happening, they can say so. There's no shame in being stuck with an issue, but saying otherwise and promising things they can't deliver is just plain boring.

This is true for most of the world. But an interesting fact and study that came out during the Walking in Stations debacle from the open glass door reviews and the ex dev interviews was that Icelanders have a different culture.
I mean they were vikings. Its in their culture, the HATE TO ADMiT WRONG.
Its fact. Not being rasicst here, just stating societal studies and cultural facts.
It is seen by some Icelanders that admitting failure is a punishment and shame worse than death.
Thats just how they are culturally and while this is a good thing sometimes, when they are wrong god its like a brock wall

With that in mind, we're still testing the reimbursement script for this, so the missing skillpoints won't be returned tomorrow, but we're hoping to have the reimbursement cleared up by the end of the week.

Everywhere, everywhen, in every chat and corp, the mantra "eve is a game about patience. Plod on, hone your knowledge and you'll get better at it". Then you go to the forums to witness the very lack of what the very same people probably tell their newcomers... :eyeroll:

I have lost quite a few days of training as well, but in the grand scheme of things, I don't plan *just* for the next couple of weeks, and will therefore be able to reinvest the SPs if not in the skill I am currently training, then the next in my queue, the net loss being zilch.

Grow up, be as nice as you can within the constraints of the situation, and maybe - just maybe - the devs will stop treating you guys as a bunch of whiny kids and make "quality of life" a higher priority.

Imagine - just imagine - if they get the reimbursement script wrong and your corpmate who hasn't lost a single SP is granted a couple millions of them. How much will you scream *then*?

Now, if the SPs I have lost in this affair are indeed not given back, I will (as nicely as possible) say so. No one's asking you to be a teletubby. Just not that kid in the back of the car you really REALLY want to smack along the earhole, or failing that heavily sedate.

So? it offsets your meticulously prepared Plan by two weeks, if not one. The SPs you will be granted will *accelerate* the next leg of it and you will be back on track.

Forgiver me for not trolling through 166 posts to find the one that says that the SP re-imbursement has been pushed back - cause I still don't have it! Is a pretty good indicator, don't you think?
But for the record this is in the same magnitude as the Volkwagen pollution emission cover up, both are directly related to programmers with no integrity, cause if you make a commitment to delivering something THAN MAKE SURE YOU HONOR THAT TO THE "PAYING" CUSTOMER.......
Have a nice day.
:)

Can you please take 1 minute to clearly communicate to the forum the current status, and the expected fix date, as many of us continue to be effected by this situation and are truly left wondering about the quality of communication we expect from a game we pay to play, and also how this situation is being prioritised.

and as per the patch notes which didn't fix anything, no news about the issues still persisting has not released...

I used blood raider accelerator to get ore reprocessing skills quickly. Now my reprocessing skills are set back. So I refined ore with much more loses cause I did not noticed I lost skill points in Omber and Scordite processing. I do not remember what else did I trained with accelerator drug, but I doubt anyone will reimbursed lost minerals due to low skill reprocessing :( .

i know its a bandaid, but have you tried asking other players around you to reprocess for you, who knows you may even make a friend & start doing other things in eve. best of luck.

For me there is no problem, to wait till the end of the week with refining. Problem is that if I would knew, that I will refine with low skill I would not do this right now, rather accumulating ore till it is fixed. But I noticed increased lost first after reprocessing was done.
