"The skill respec will be applied to your characters in the coming days once we have completed and deployed changes to the skill tree. This one time respec will remove and refund all ISK and skill points that have been applied to date."

*snip*

Dear CCP,

Don't you have enough people fed up with this game already? You do realize, that 95% of the people you sent into ISK debt, will NEVER play this game again. I didn't go negative, but I am among the minority of the players you have. I come here on the forums daily, to find out what's going on. Most players don't. Most players just want to turn on their PS3 and play. They saw the extra ISK and thought it was part of the respec like before. As a matter of fact for the first week or more in your response letters to submitting a Respec Ticket you said you were going to refund ISK I'll quote my response from you:

"The skill respec will be applied to your characters in the coming days once we have completed and deployed changes to the skill tree. This one time respec will remove and refund all ISK and skill points that have been applied to date."

So I get taking back the extra ISK, even sending people to 0 ISK, but negative? No one is going to use free suits to dig their way out of millions to 10's of millions of ISK debt, they are just going to move on to a new game.

Your meager offer to have someone submit a ticket and have some of thier inventory turned back into ISK, is a tedious process, that won't help most people because they spent that ISK on everything from Protosuits, to Tanks. Then had those items destroyed by people like me. Some people donated alot to their corp who spent that ISK on PC. So, most of that ISK is gone, and can't be refunded. For a company who's general motto is if you can do it in the game then it's allowed, you are going against everything you believe in, by doing what you did.

People went on a spending spree, but it was your fault.

If you aren't going to just give the ISK back, then take the extra ISK, and inventory but if they are still negative, just set them to ZERO ISK not NEGATIVE. If you don't I am pretty sure outer space wont be the only place in a vacuum.

This is akin to saying that players found exploiting glitches shouldn't be punished.

There is no way anyone would read this and "infer" that you were just getting your Skillbook ISK back. Everyone that read this thought that they would lose all their stuff and get the ISK value for it, like they did a week or two ago. CCP was planning on doing a full SP/ISK refund, until they thought about it and changed their mind, and made post a week later saying it would be only skillbook ISK that would be refunded.

So, then you DID know it was only the skillbook ISK that was to be refunded? I see...

I never said I was confused, I am not negitive. I read the forums I know whats going on. I was giving an example of how people could be confused, because most players DON'T READ THE FORUMS.

That is EXACTLY what CCP's policy is on glitching. Unless they are hacking the game, anything you can do in game is legal. You ever heard of someone being kicked for Head Glitching, or sitting in the MCC? NO!

I really don't feel bad for the tards who spent their ISK but I would hate to see this game lose players.
It pisses me off that CCP is going to have devote resources to fix this when they could be doing far more useful things.

CCP needs to;

1. liquidate all assets of mercs with negative balances.
2. remove donated ISK from corp wallets that contributed to the negative balance

Edit: For clarity, anyone dreaming of having their ISK balance simply reset to zero without losing assets or corp donations needs to quit playing forever right now. CCP will not reward you for foolishness.

LOL. Let me know when you find a glitch and exploit it. You seem to not have looked very far for CCP's stance on things. Do a lookup on Bot mining as just one example.

As an adult, I understand that spending money that isn't mine, can only create debt.

Welcome to life folks...!!!! 10/10 for your attempts to hide from it.

when all is said and done the fact remains that players with negative balances will turn away from this game

preach financial advice all day till your blue in the face this isnt real life its supposed to be a casual shooter

CCP set all negative balances to ZERO learn your lesson for the future and move on.

For the people that have attempted to cheat. They should return to 0 ISK and lose all inventory. OR find out the items they bought with the extra money and delete those items and all ISK. Allow them to keep the stuff they bought with the actual ISK they had. Meaning go back and look at inventories of the ones who were "wronged" see what they had before they got extra money allow them to keep that and clean out the rest of the inventory officer weapons and all + Isk and give them punishment for attempting to cheat.

CCP has logs they can see what was spent where the ISK went if the customer was TRULY wronged. They can tell.

"60% of the time, it works every time"

where do you guys get your numbers?

If we're assuming the player base is made up of petulant children with no self-control, I'm definitely against giving them ISK back. I'd consider this an object lesson in consequence for wee tykes.

I don't play EVE. In dust no one has been banned for exploiting glitches. How many people used the broken Damage mods glitch, Head glitches, people don't get banned for sitting in the MCC all day and not play. they don't even get a slap on the wrist.

Let them petition to return their stuff to the DUST Market for a refund. But only for 30 days after purchase, and only if it is undamaged and in the original packaging.

No letting them off clean should not happen. People don't learn lessons this way. Cheaters should be punished.

Cheaters? Who cheated? People that spent money that was in their own wallet? What is the lesson to be learned that you can't trust CCP to do anything right?

It was CCP's mistake, no one cheated, glitched, or exploited a glitch. All they did was spent money in their wallet.
