Can anyone tell me how to challenge a arc being banned? Bear with me as it does come under the subject of farming. I, perhaps naively, made a mission about farming. The contact is Farmer Giles and you have to rescue his livestock from the evil Old McDonald. All the enemies in the missions are custom mobs with imaginative monikers like Ram Beau, Cow Belle and Hugh Heifer.
My problem is this arc as been banned as a Farming arc. I thought Farming in the context that would result in a ban referred to missions that provided an unintended statistical advantage. But it seems it refers to missions that have a theme of agriculture too. It only needed the person responsible to read the missions description to realise it was the latter. The truth is the mobs are pretty tough and would, Im sure, frustrate a farmer (an in game farmer rather than a gent who makes his living raising livestock or produce).

I,m sorry, I know it was probably annoying and unfair for them to do this to you after your hard work.....

Sorry -

okay, I've buffed the PPD and the mission fail text, and nerfed GG

You nerfed Golden Girl? You disabled her winky? -

Which is why it may seem like the devs are holding back stuff for I15
[/ QUOTE ]
You can winky away to your hearts content, but we have all heard the "great things coming" speech way too many times now to actually believe it, and if the gap between issues is as long as normal, then Champions will be on its second patch by I15. -
Just started a Respec trial and crashed, when I came back I was in a building not where I had crashed and asked to rate an MA mission I wanst in.
Before the crash I had entered mission, others crashed and came in but I wasnt there. -
You know why, its the orange jumpsuits, maybe folk were doing a "Rescue Guantanemo prisoners from Evil George" or something
Damn, all these winkies lately......i,m turning into GG............shudders........ -

Hi Col
This is a great idea and your reviews are well thought out and written.
Although on one level I am petrified, lol, could I offer up
Valley of the Harpies 74519
I would offer up the other 2 but I although I have been told they are fun, I am not sure how long they will last.
Thanks -
Thats a bugger, I had one planned too.......cheerleader sluts just dont look right
-
Well I have finally had an email, same as above needed card bits. Fingers crossed.
-
As I said before, technically it is fraud. Although the intention may not have been to steal, the system took the money under false pretences.
As usual, the customer service is absolute sh!te, and I am waiting for something like the response I had once before -
"Thank you for your enquiry regarding Guild Wars"
A redname response would be good considering this has affected a lot of people and they dont seem to give a stuff. -

After a days wait, support have got back asking me to confirm some of my card payment details.....that's all so far.
However I would suggest that GR is correct about them losing money on this, rather than making interest.
The reason being is that NCsoft do not get your payment directly, the tranactions are facilitated by a 3rd party (I think it's Bibit in this case). Each transcation through Bibit will have a charge for NCsoft whether it's a sale or refund.
The reasons it works this way now are down to the new PCI laws meaning that retailers are not allowed to store customers payment card details - hence why support are asking for some of my details.
Even if/when they agree to refund your money, bank transfers can mean the funds may take a few days to return to your account.
My point in the post above is that it shouldn't be allowed to happen, debiting cards in this manner without the users consent (eg not pressing the confirmation button) could perhaps be viewed as a breach of the sales of goods act/distance selling regulations. Although we should all also appreciate that mistakes can happen.

You are lucky NH, still heard nothing at all, not even a polite, we r looking at it for you.
Also dont see why it should take a few days to go back into my account when they finally take a look at it in December next year. It only took 5 minutes to come out.
This really is atrocious customer service. -
Has anyone at all actually had a response from them yet? Are they all on holiday or just making interest on all of our monies? Its a ridiculously slow response time.
-
Ok, but wouldnt the same happen if they all gave 4's or 3's?
Just seems more than a bit paranoid to think loads of the people are out to get the creator. -

The person who wrote the arc said that when he recieved HoF, (thankfully once you get into HoF you never lose the badge associated with it) he would suddenly recieve a flurry of one star votes which caused it to drop out.
The devs are in the process of fixing said problem that once an arc hits HoF it remains there.
[/ QUOTE ]
But each person only gets one vote.
If the mission had a high number of 5's to begin with, then it would probably take a few to bring it down even to 4 -

Either that or its a really awful new one -
All I'm saying is you're very quick to claim spite, when it could be that maybe it isn't as good as people are making out and some people didn't feel it warranted the high ranking.
Thats just honesty compared to some where lots of people are adding 5 stars for people they know? Plus, one person rating it one star wouldnt be enough to drop it anyway. -
Ueah, you missed what I said, I meant the one star, didnt doubt that he was in the hall of fame.
-
Yeah noticed this today, yet another really annoying thing, though it looks like the chat bug has gone
-
Problem is, how do u know it was spite? It could just be that someone else didnt want to back slap as they didnt like it.
Its all subjective. -
The bottom part of the bolero outfit keeps disappearing.

If you actually read what I said, it said to try again, so maybe you could try not being so condescending.
Of course it would have been better if they released it with a system that worked in the first place.
[/ QUOTE ]
So if it says 'jump like a rabbit through your room', you would do it also? Something with common sence and stuff.
Serious.. lol.

This is an issue that has affected a lot of people on both sides of the Atlantic, and you just turning round and pretty much calling them all idiots is not helpful. Aside from the error issue, other people were charged more than once after clicking once, so get off of your high horse. -

I've a feeling any Guest Author missions are going to be of things like Web comic authors such as Scott Whatshisface from PvP Online (although they long ago stopped being about computer games really).
[/ QUOTE ]
Or "Hi My name is Richard Garriott, please play my arc, I will charge you for it, use the dosh to go into space again, then delete it when I am done" -
I must admit, it would have been nice if the "Guest writer" part had at least one arc done by a dev or even better, Clive Barker

Im sure it is when your charging players two or three times for one addon pack :P

Errors like this one actually end up costing us money, once the refunds are issued.
[/ QUOTE ]
Probably would if they ever got round to refunding
