Hagley Boon/live serversFollow

I can see the good and bad points of this "mistake"

Hodstock where I play was so bustling, lots of people on lfg and a good general community feel.

With the 3 year anniversary due I thknk they should have let the pots stay for a week for everyone to obtain them, but with a maximum charge of about 25, and keep them no trade. With the silly rate you earn cms when you obtain 1000 or more it takes 3 days constant grinding for some accounts to gain just 1 cm. There is also talk of a level increase to 70 and if that si the case then the amount of cms that you need will need to be higher than 1500. so with the last cm being way over a billion xp we as players are going to need some help along the line obtaining this. It is way too far fetched to expect people to be able to grind these cms any other way.

At first everyone thought the boon pots were for the 3 year anniversay, I know people that re subscribed to EQOLA just because of the pot give away and everyone was really happy and welcomed it. This itself should have been a general message to SOE that hey we made a mistake but we can use this to our advantage, our subscriptions just went up and the main servers are nicely populated. But instead they fire out warning messages to delete these pots etc.

It was dumb mistake for it to happen in the first place and it should have been double checked and triple checked before the update was pushed out. But everyone makes mistakes and lets just hope the dev has not lost thier job over this but learns by the mistake he/she made.

And what was the 3 year anniversary present to all us loyal customers? xp debt removal!!! The goblin form is not part of the anniversary it was being put on already.

Now please explain to me that people that retired got given a free months subscription, where as the loyal players who have stuck through thick and thin get palmed off with debt removal......this truly sucks and I think the office bods at SOE need to smack their heads together because they need to do something and quick to save EQ in the long run. I am not talking about the devs etc here but the people behind the marketing and the how to make people keep subscribing.

Now where did you read in my post that I said I write letters EVERYDAY to complain? Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm? It seems the only one here WHINNING IN OVERDRIVE is you! Hehe... step back and take in the WHOLE picture! Haha! I know...

I didn't read the rest of the dribble after that....

Do you even play anymore Murran? You tell someone that xped honestly in that period that you think its ok for them to get a roll back. You tell someone that worked hard for months on end to hit 60 on that day that they have to re xp that one level. Maybe its minimal for those of us who have multiple 60s and used that time to cm. However try and think about the newer players, who may not have hit 60. A roll back would have a major effect on the paying players.
Fyi i stopped complaining about them taking away the pots once i found out that they werent a anniversary gift. ALOT of people believed they were a gift for 3 years of being loyal, dealing with price increases and loss of population. If you told me debt removal and a gob form was our gift for 3 yrs I wouldnt have believed you. Alot of people did what was expected of them, dont let the 5 to 10 people sour you to that. If you were there when everything went down you would probably have a better understanding of what went down.

Could you make up your mind, is it hard work or it doesnt matter? You cant have it both ways, unless your into that, then you need to talk to nmuk.

You may also want to reread your quote of what sing has said, he said only those that used the hagley boons deserved to be rolled back. Amazing the amount of hostility from someone not even affected by his comment. He is right, those that ignored SoE instructions to delete the boons, and not use them should have their accounts rolled back. If they end up rolling back everyone because a few would not listen, dont blame people that want a fair game, blame the glitchers.

I mean that its hard work to get to 60 (some more than others however) but is it my business if someone ploob themselves up no. If someone ploobs glitches xp such as the pet pl it is an easier path, i chose not to do it that way. I prefer to have the experience of enjoying every kill on my toon. Doing all the quests, that was my choice. However in the end we all hit 60, to me i chose the path of hard work, i dont look down my nose at people who choose to pl themselves. If they chose the easier path than they missed out on the experience that is everquest, but its not my loss, nor my business. hope this clarifies my position for you, Dirges.

However the Hagley Boon is a totally different thing all together. The roll back isnt going to be specific to people who used it, its gonna be a general one. Effecting everyone, honest and Glitchers too, SoE is cheap when it comes to such things. They arent gonna go account to account looking who used and didnt. Its gonna be a general hit acrossed the boards if they do it. Thats my fear, If they do this and people (honest xpers especially) may up and up quit. This was the devs mistake, but a roll back would hurt everyone.

I never said that they were gonna roll back the server a month, I realize that it would be period of when the update ended til when the boon was taken out. My main prob is that in that period i got a ton of cms (the legal way) im close to my tag on my wiz, a roll back is gonna put me back out about 50 cms out again. People are gonna be punished for others stupidity. If the rollback never occurs than at least us legal xpers, who found it super easy to group that night gain some benefit. A rollback on all people punishes people who did the right thing twice. Granted the glitchers who didnt listen get away, but pet(reg and AoE)plers have been doing it for months and they never had to suffer thru a rollback.

The only reason why i asked if you still have an account is i wanted to know if you actually xped that night. That night was like EQOA two years ago, the grouping was fast and the xp flew. People didnt have to wait like they do now, while its a day it was a day were you could get alot done xp wise. The servers now are very slow. It would take me three days to a week to get back what i lost in that one day.
