Edited by: The Hardman on 05/06/2008 00:11:35 I think that this is a game, as such it has limitations. We have all faced lag, we have all had things not work properly. Yet sometimes they get reimbursed, and sometimes they don't. There should be a flat NO response to all requests for reimbursement that is caused by bugs or technical issues or lag. You shouldn't fly something that you can't afford to lose. The only time that reimbursement should be allowed is if someone's account got hacked or something like that.

Disagree. It works fine as-is - players shouldn't be punished for technical failures on CCP's part. ------------------ Fix the forums! |

I agree. The reimbursement system rewards those who abuse it. A flat "no" response would be better, everybody would know what they're entitled to (i.e., nothing) and there'd be no more whining and crying based on the "squeaky wheel gets a free Raven" principle.

Having lost more than one ship to a bug, glitch, or known technical problem, and almost lost quite a few more to severe random lag, I can't support this. If it's CCP's fault, they should replace it, especially if it's a known and unavoidable bug that they can't fix.

Not only am I in favor of compensation for players who they lose their ship when it's CCP's fault, I am against people giving out their password or downloading keyloggers and then complaining that they were hacked and demanding recompense.

Agreed. I lost a couple of hundred mill in a fight after a gate crashed my system, couldnt log back on, petitioned it, logged back on found myself at a gate with 4 reds, the gate wouldnt work even though I got to it and didnt aggro, non of my mods would turn on and I generally got sc****d. Several others in the area were suffering lag and problems in the surrounding systems even tho there were few people in them. I petitioned got turned down because "the log showed no problems" and that was that. I didnt worry too much but then I hear about others being reimbursed for cap ships etc and it is crap.
And it wasnt my system either, I run a far more powerful PC than eve needs.
So agreed, if everyone gets the same treatment, no one can complain too hard. Like the man said if you cant afford to lose it, dont take it into space. Everyone knows about lag and what it can do to your ships so everyone is on the same page. Trust me, I almost know what I'm doing. |

Disagree on this account. If you lose an asset due to a bug in the software, it should be reimbursed FULLY. ---------- |

My favorite is losing a dread because the cable company decided to shut down a segment of the network I was on to "do some scheduled work" and did not tell their customers.
Anyway, I was 35 seconds from coming out of siege when it happened and my dread never warped off after siege was over, all the modules shut off and the ship sat there. Needless to say it got popped and CCP gave me the "the logs do not show anything" they even said sorry you didnt warp off but we cannot give you the ship back.
