I remember that. I would suddenly be unable to use the guild bank, the items were there but could not be interacted with. At the time it just seemed like a weird UI glitch. Of course now we know better.
However, it turns out it didn’t matter if you ever actually accessed the guild bank during the breakage time or not. The data loss happened on the server side whether your bank was ever accessed or not.
Has anyone received multiple installments of “lost item” mails, like several hours apart, or is it all one and done? I ask because of the tens of thousands of items I lost, many no longer dropping in game, all I received was a single mail over 30 hours ago containing… one fish.
MS became a much more civilized and open company quite some time ago, WSL being the most obvious sign of that, but it was happening much earlier. They changed their tune following the DoJ lawsuit c. 2001 and Apple took over the “pita monopolist” title.
They’ve always been a good place to work since basically the 1980s. You don’t usually hear Apple employees saying that.
Nope, emails were one and done. Got pretty much nothing back. I received a couple of odds and ends that were no more than 5% of what I lost. Which, granted, wasn’t all that much in my case because I didn’t really have anything of value in my guild banks (fortunately for me).
Honestly, the emails that people that actually lost a lot of stuff got, it would’ve been less insulting if they had just gotten an email with a middle finger emoji.
EU realms get handled differently cause there is chance Blizzard would be in big do-do over in Europe rules on how a gaming company works there…some high end laws and that…that the US area doesn’t have…
On my two characters that have my personal guild banks, they each got a few things all at once and nothing since. From what they say and what players are saying, if you got anything once, that is all you are gonna get.
Probably just a matter of time until Blizz locks this thread too, can’t have people saying anything negative about how they run things. Shows they are paying attention, they just won’t communicate anything and would rather everyone ignore this issue.
We want them to acknowledge the seriousness of the issue, give some idea of the failure that allowed it to happen, assure people it will not happen again, and provide SOME sort of PROPER apology and compensation.
Wow I didn’t hear about that yet…that is a damn shame I would of thought the EU would have bit more bite they could put too Blizzard about lost stuff from the banks. Its damn sorry this has happened now to anyone …
they have done that. so not sure why you are crying. do you think they are happy with what happened? dear lord. some of you think you are entitled to the sun and moon i swear
