Selected [OOF] on Wednesday and double checked it was still selected after logout/login, it was. I seem to have been placed with Hardstuck [Hs] from Underworld, which I was also placed with at the last beta attempt.

Not trying to be antagonistic here, but you're willfully ignoring the fair portion of people, who both received, and wont receive the compensation, that pointed out that there is a huge difference between both compensation, that the compensation doesn't apply fairly (is not related to progress) and mostly pointed out that it should have been handled differently. This pointing out of everyone complaining as saying "Huuuur gimme free stoof" is grating. I think what is mostly bugging "us on the other side", I can for sure only speak for myself but I'm guessing here, is the sense of entitlement that most of these post are smelling off, and this is a common response to that. It feels so much like the kids that got presents on their siblings birthdays and threw a hissy fit if they didn't one year, are now complaining that someone else got something they didn't. It's perfectly valid to be a bit upset, but it does not entilte you to anything. Fully agreed. If I had handled it, I would have (as I repeated several times now) only extended SAB by a couple of days to make up for lost progress. SAB is the only thing that couldn't have been done again after the issue was solved, thus in my opinion it was the only thing worth extending to players. The issue from where I stand is that not only did that Not happen, some people got something shiny for doing something counter intuitive and reckless, and the rest did not and got something most people dont spend 3 seconds on, which I do find misguided. I'd rather everyone gets the same treatment, and extending SAB was one of the easy way to do that, without handing out items. And for the record, no, I dont have a hidden SAB agenda. I stopped playing it several days ago when I got all the boomboxes.It's probably also worth noting that it's most likely impossible to please everyone. I understand the reasoning behind extending SAB, but it will still feel short to those who don't enjoy this at all. We're back at "So you get an extention on something you like, but I get nothing because I don't enjoy SAB" Calling it counter intuitive and reckless is maybe a bit harsh, considering not everyone checks Discord and forums and what-not before they play. My point is, I completely understand that it can feel a little unfair, what bugs me is that there's this notion that Anet would somehow magically make everyone happy, but just chose not to. There's probably been a lot of discussion on what to do that we don't know anything about, and I'll eat my hat if there even is a solution that could make all happy.

I'm sorry, but I think you're really overestimating how many people duped items. Besides, they'll most likely be caught anyway. Anet is trying to compensate people who actually lost a bit of progress and how else do you propose they do this? Spend weeks shifting through each account that logged in to see if they can determine who actually did something that was lost?It's in the terms that we can expect downtime. Anet is not obligated to give us anything, we're entilted to absolutely nothing, even if we did lose progress. No one is getting punished, some people are given a random useless thing for some time lost, the rest of us lost nothing.Someone else getting a thing is not a punishment to you. That's pretty basic. Sure, you can feel upset that someone else is given something that you're not, but that does not mean you're entilted to the thing. You're not. Because none of us are

The problem with a new playable race is not only the model work it would require, and the story as you mention, but also voiceacting and changes in the already excisting world that perhaps does not directly involve story. Everywhere else in the world you can see all 5 races represented in one way or another and it would feel disconnected if f.x. Tengu was the only one not present.A work around could be to do the same as they did with Factions and simply funnel them in to the story of the expansion and nothing else. (As far as I recall, you could have a character from Tyria that would enter from one direction and a character from Cantha entering another place) - but that would feel disconnected too. I highly doubt a new playable race will happen.

And now you're just copy/pasting... Sweet baby jesus on a flying horse, what a mess.

Listen, I know you're upset that you might lose the progress you have made for a few hours today. You've been abundantly clear about this. But come on, quit the campaign to not lose your 3 hours of gameplay, compared to people's 3 days. It's only making you look like a selfish child, on all the threads you're on this crusade. You are literally the only one, just try and be a little reasonable here.
