Again, no one is saying that. Everyone is trying to give you the correct path to getting the issue resolved. It’s not instant, but it’s the only way to get it done.
Quite frankly, the response that they gave is more than usual. Normally, bug fixes are just in the patch notes, or pushed without any notification. And again, the message was less than an hour ago. Even responses take time, because they need to know what they are dealing with first.
I have to agree with you on that. Honestly i think the majority of them indirectly saying that are just troll’s looking to stir things up. I could be wrong and it could be working for some but that’s just me speculating.
Speaking for myself, I was not trolling.
I can see frustration on both sides. Not being able to use the whole game definitely.
But giving the appearance of ignoring correct advice of where to post to help resolve the issue is also frustrating.
It is better to look on others as trying to be helpful rather than trolling, especially if it “indirectly”.
Oh no, no i wasn’t saying you were hunn.
I know you’re like me straight to the point and blunt. I’m sorry if it seemed like i was accusing you i assure you i wasn’t.
I was simply saying that some of the replies i seen from people more or less saying " sucks to be you " were trolling looking stir things up is all.
Why in the world would you restrict a new player from interacting with the games economy for 30 days!!! A new legitimate players who has paid their month? This is more of a punishment to legitimate players than it is for the scumbag Botters and Gold sellers. I just activate 4 accounts to play with my Wife and kids and they have a 30 day pause on the AH, how are they going to afford their mounts at 40?
I think we just need to address two things:
It’s safe to acknowledge that bots / developers are locked in an eternal arms race. There is no silver bullet to this problem, and there never will be. Fine, so let’s forget trying to argue hypothetical solutions to an intrinsically insoluble problem.
If a new policy is enacted, that policy should be applied only to future accounts and CLEARLY stated to prospective customers, not retroactively to accounts made prior to the policy shift. This avoids the frustration factor that comes from players like me who had full access a week ago and then lose it after we’ve already wasted time leveling up.
You can read more about it here:
Thank you I’m following that thread, I get the reasoning but if this is the case and theyre going to stick with this then I will unsub my recently resubscribed accounts and forget it. I should be able to link my kids account to my Wife and I’s 20 years of pumping money into Blizzard.
This I think has been the main issue. Very few people would buy a month on a seasonal server if the first month is going to be wasted time just sitting waiting to do a huge chunk of the game. I have 2 characters that were raid ready easily in under a month, but can’t run the new raid with anything more than a “we’ll give it a shot” group because I can’t buy consumes, level enchanting, or make BiS gear. Not here just to complain, but this part seems like the biggest oversight, but also seems like the part where Blizzard sees it as a necessary cost to be paid.
yea not a good business model none the less.
Yeah, exactly. I’m glad Blizzard is taking action against botting, I don’t even particularly care about the policy itself, but I just wish I had been informed because I would have drastically changed course had I known this was going to happen to me.
Yes exactly. It probably wouldn’t have been worth it to start my main less than a month before the phase 3 launch, because now I’m getting ready to raid but everything on the character is miles behind everyone else.
Excuse me, has anyone had their restrictions removed?
And if they took it away, can you explain to me how you did it?
I don’t know if that staff member is still monitoring the thread, but folks were getting checked into there, the last time I saw. So long as they met the requirements, at least.
The botom line is its not blizzards faults theres lots of bots its the players being lazy and looking for the easy way out as long as theres the lazy and stupid there are cockroaches that will take advantage of them.
Rember friends only u can stop bots and gold buying by stoping ur friends from being stupid.
If you feel something is exploitive, providing information on how to exploit is probably not a good idea. It would be great if you put in a bug report, for the development team directly.
Well, posting it in different places about the same thing isn’t helping matters.
Reposting moderated topics isn’t really a great idea, but it’s my opinion.
Posts that are reported only get hidden until a mod reviews the report. If they’re removed, it was the mods doing so. Sometimes mods restore hidden posts if no coc violation occured.
It is being reported and RIGHTLY removed by Blizzard mods because posting exploits is explicitly against the forum CoC. If you feel that there are exploits happening you can either right click in game those that you think are exploiting and report them for cheating, or you can email hacks@blizzard.com with what you feel is the exploit.
Posting about it on the forums is just telling everyone how to do it and just as bad as the people that are using the exploit.
