I have the feeling that I already know the answer to this question, but will ask it nevertheless...

For those running legit skill farming operation, i.e. who never used ghost training by not letting their accounts lapse, will they receive some kind of compensation from their loss linked to their ignorance of unwillingness to abuse the system with ghost training?

Surely, those accounts are easier to identify and belong for sure to players that respect the game we all share, and are worth more to CCP than bug-abusing cheaters.. Does that mean anything?

But this was allowed by ccp. They wrote it in a dev blog here:

Q: What happens if my subscription ends while I'm logged in, will I be converted to Alpha in the middle of a fight?
A: In these cases, you will remain an Omega until the next time you log out. We won't ever turn skills off during the middle of a session.

Thats different.

Apparently accounts lapsing out of Omega into Alpha whilst logged out where/are continuing to skill at Omega status until the account logs in again.

In other words the system didnt/doesnt register that the account should revert to Alpha, including sp rate and extent of skills, unless the account logged in again after Omega expired.

CCP, after 7 months of ignoring ghost training, decided to do something about it, and a dev created a script to stop the ghost training. After rigorous QA, they executed the script. That script turns out affected quite a number of active, paying accounts as well. What the parameters were that made it affect some accounts and not others, I don't know.

Remove content from my post,1B. Remove my content from a thread I have started 2B.

Ignore all Forum comments that raise issues and concerns about our "features", and bring said "features" in anyway.

Pr0boszcz X Legion Against Probes 0	Posted - 2017.06.21 17:41:05 - [97] - Quote On 9th June I have submitted a support ticket and got a"Mass reply". I've waited till14th June I have again asked about the issue, received the following reply: "Unfortunately, the reimbursement has yet to happen and sadly I do not have an exact ETA on when it may happen exactly yet, either, but I can assure that a script for this is being worked on with high priority." Today my ticket suddenly got closed and marked as "Solved" even though I have not received any reimbursement. Apparently looks like they are trying to wait it out, hoping it will go silent and people would forget. I hope not though... But definitely 2 weeks is more than enough to prepare a script with high priority... heck even a day should be enough actually.

As it seems to of only affected Omega accounts, wouldn't it of just been easier to give all Omega accounts a set amount of SP rather than drag the whole process out for 2 weeks?

GM Lelouch Game Masters C C P Alliance 115	Posted - 2017.06.22 16:35:41 - [103] - Quote Hey all, The reimbursement will happen next week, hopefully on Monday (not 100% confirmed yet). We'll let you know through a news item announcement when the SP has been reimbursed. I sincerely apologize for the delay, we initially thought we'd be able to roll out the reimbursement early this week but the process regrettably turned out to be a bit more complex than anticipated.

The Invisible Man Aliastra Gallente Federation 0	Posted - 2017.06.22 18:04:31 - [104] - Quote I still don't understand this. A few post earlier someone said we have to pause our training before the end of the subscription, but this will mean we will lose training time again. Will we get reimbursed for that lost time too?

That sounds like a mis-interpretation. A proper fix would not require players to do anything. This SP reimbursement is supposed to be a one-time event.

That sounds like a mis-interpretation. A proper fix would not require players to do anything. This SP reimbursement is supposed to be a one-time event. The script that caused the loss of training time was meant to do something about the ghost training. Now i was talking about how we are supposed to stop ghost training to happen, which is declared to be an exploit in the meantime as you can see here https://community.eveonline.com/news/news-channels/eve-online-news/exploit-notification-ghost-training/ So we are forced to stop ghost training to happen if we don't want to risk our accaunts to be banned. The first way is of course not letting our accounts lapse into alpha state by buying a subscription or plexing ccount before the lapse could happen. There should be many people who don't want or can't do this (the plex price ingame is around 1.4B ISK). The second other way to stop ghost training from happening is pausing your skill queue before your account lapses to Alpha state. The third (and last?) way seems to be online at the time the ghost training issue will happen. This is legit as at seems to me and someone approved it in this thread, too (see here https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=6977756#post6977756 ). But some people might not be able to be online at that time even if it is only afk. So my question is if we will be reimbursed for the loss of any skillpoints if we choose to pause our skill training to prevent a possible ban.
Circumstantial Evidence 419	Posted - 2017.06.25 19:08:27 - [107] - Quote Some skill queues were "inadvertently paused" by a script run on June 9, SP reimbursement is the subject of this thread. On June 15, the notice that Ghost Training is an Exploit was posted. In that notice, they wrote "a fix is expected to be deployed to address this issue next week." While Ghost Training is not mentioned in the patch notes, exploit fixes sometimes don't get posted there. Patches were pushed out on June 20 and 22, I am only assuming something to address Ghost Training might have been included on June 20 or 22. (A "proper fix" should pause or reduce the speed of skill training as expected when lapsing from Omega to Alpha, so that players don't have to do anything special.)
