I find that far more reasonable and logical.

    This makes far more sense yes!Or just everyone gets a bonfire, hairstyle makeover or mount adoption license, like 300 to 400 gems and those on monday get another.

    If like me, you were warned of the rollback and decided not to log in at the time, then you didn't get the mount. You can take the "problem" from different point of view :

    • You were smart enough not to log in and try to prevent your account to be damaged.
    • You trusted Anet to fix the problem and decided that is would be useless to do any progress after the rollback, as it would be more likely be another rollback to restore the state of the game, and so you were smart enough and spared you worthless efforts on the game.
    • You didn't logging to protest or suicide jump in lion arch, as those childishs actions were useless anyway.
    • You were thoughtful and deciced not to log in so you may prevent more stress on the servers.

    You can be frustated and no one should tell you otherwise, but you should remember that GW2 is a freemium, with no monthly subscription, so even if you lost something in your account, or you lost play time, you are not entitled to any compensation.On the other way, people saying that you don't deserve it, may or may not be right.For my part, it's not because a person didn't log in that she/he didn't loss something that she/he consider valuable, account-wise or timewise. People should put their Judge Dredd costume away, because they can't estimate how far you may feel frustrated or even betrayed by the situation.

    The real issue is that, this mount gift is just an overfed kassadin rifting the community, and it raises the same questions all other again :

    • Why should I not get a mount, I lost something like everyone else.
    • Why should they get a mount, they didn't lost progress like me because I played after the rollback and lost everything from this point!
    • Why did they played after the rollback, it was clear that it would have been fixed after....
    • Why should anybody at all get a mount?
    • Why didn't they give everybody a mount?
    • Etc.

    Personnaly, I feel a bit left out by Anet, but honestly since Blizzcon 2018 and Diablo Immortal, I don't expect much from gaming companies anyway.I was wise enough to try to prevent any problems in my account, and I'm confident that it was the right choice not to log in, so I don't really mind the situation, but the outgoing strong atmosphere of injustice we can witness IG or in the forums it was really bothers me.I think the situation was handled poorly overall, but guys, let it go, take a break until your feelings are in the right spot, so you may enjoy playing this game again, not flawless but very enjoyable for sure!!

    P.S.:-Syntax errors will be made.-First post, started a month ago.

    Now the interesting part is: what makes you feel left out? would you still feel left out if the compensation was a gemstore item of aproxx 300 gems like bonfire or hairstyle makover kit instead of 1200 gems mount selection?

    I too feel left out like many others, but I wouldnt have this feeling if there was no compensation at all or just a small compensation for those who lost some progress.The reason i feel left out is because people getting this 1200 gems skin for just logging in at certain point of the day while the reccomendation was not to.

    The best solution was no compensation and trying hard for those we really lost progress.Im glad many got their progress back and for those which are unfortunate a small 300 gems compensation or 1200 gems compensation wouldnt satisfy anyway because they lost big amounts of progress.

    ps with progress i mean potential gold income or achievements, not standing afk in LA.

    @yoni.7015 said:Maybe the best decision so I don’t have to respond to the nonsense.

    The only real nonsense here is your trolling in each of the threads.I’m not trolling because I have a different opinion. Maybe you should learn to accept and tolerate different opinions.

    if That is your statement then why pushing so much in other's conversation on all these posts? You keep on pushing and pushing your opinion like we all must agree with your point of view. on every post regarding the rollback you tell the same story. People react to you and try to share opinions but all you do is being a brick wall and now with this statement you are a controvery to yourself.

  4. Woah I did not expect so many people to react :o.

    I can understand all your perspectives on the matter and I respect them all.I do appreciate the compensation but my main point of disagreement is the fact that people who just played in a small window of 6 hours suddenly get a free gem store item worth of 1200 gems while the rest of us will be getting compensated with an item worth of 300 gems.The difference is just way to big, 4 times more the value for just being online.

    As you have read multiple posts, this does give a wrong message to the gamers. People that talk about a loss talk about losing precursors or loads of gold, but I just know that the biggest part of the player base are just casuals like me which make their earnings by just doing dailies. The risk of losing dailies for getting a 1200 gem compensation is a risk worth taking for the next time :)

    if it was just a compensation of max 400 gems then this situation wouldnt have exploded so much.

  5. Because of the Server Crash / Rollback I agreed with our caring community that it would be best to leave the game at rest in order to not make things potentially harder for Arenanet to Fix the server issues.

    Now we all are missing out a compensation worth of €15,- !! Just because we agreed it was best for the game.

    True, i for example, did not lose my 2Gold daily progress because I did not log in, and maybe sum woodies and ores, maybe a T6 venom sac or 2.But i did miss out on a potential 2 Gold progress because i decided to be thougtful like most of our caring community.

    I would lose 2 Gold everyday for a compensation of €15,-!!!

    Where are your principles Arenanet?The first Server maintenance in like 7,5 years???How often do we get real problems thanks to Arenanet?The answer: barely!That alone is Kudos toward Anet really.

    The whole caring community that is missing out on a crazy €15,- mount selection skin just because we care doesnt do any form of justice in my estimation!I love this game, but I am very angry right now! >.<"

    If being careless gives you €15 worth of content, how much is being careful, thougtful, respectful worth to you Arenanet?

  6. I think the compensation is quite generous.However I think its overcompensating with a piece of content which they charge 1200 gems for, aka €15,-

    I did not get a compensation because I made the decision to stay offline and safe.Normally this is fine, would the compensation be like a small gift of an aproxx value around 400 gems.

    But what I disagree with is that indeed, people who stand afk, or just did dailies didnt lose so much progress which accumilates to €15,- in my estimation. I would gladly give up my daily progress for an 1200 gems voucher! :p

    So its quite unfair and I thank you for this post and support.

  7. Because of the Server Crash / Rollback I agreed with our caring community that it would be best to leave the game at rest in order to not make things potentially harder for Arenanet to Fix the server issues.

    Now i am missing out a compensation worth of €15,- !! Just because I agreed it was best to not do my daily login and dailies.

    True, i did not lose my 2Gold daily progress because I did not log in, and maybe sum woodies and ores, maybe a T6 venom sac or 2.But i did miss out on a potential 2 Gold progress because i decided to be thougtful like most of our caring community.

    Where are your principles Arenanet?The first Server maintenance in like 7,5 years???How often do we get real problems thanks to Arenanet?The answer: barely!That alone is Kudos toward Anet really.So imho a compensation was not even needed because there are plenty more games which have waaay more issues, and they dont even compensate with every single crash.TBH I also was not offended about the lack of compensation that the pre HOT players got or the pre POF players got at first. So also here was a compensation not needed.

    I do respect Anet for all these compensations towards their player base. I think a compensation with a worth of around €5 euro's is agreeable.
    But the fact that they compensate unaware players with €15,- worth of content is absolutely respectles to the players which were aware and caring in order to Support Arenanet with the hopes to support a fix as easy as possible!

    I barely log in on the servers because im too busy enjoying the game! Heck, I play gw2 for 7 years now, thats even longer then my 6 years in gw1!But I just had to log in this time to show you how offended I am.The whole caring community that is missing out on a crazy €15,- mount selection skin just because we care doesnt do any form of justice in my estimation!I love this game, but I am very angry right now! >.<"

    If being careless gives you €15 worth of content, how much is being careful, thougtful, respectful worth to you Arenanet?
