Senpai 12 Posted June 7, 2018 I don't understand would you rather let them leave your accounts banned? You're getting unbanned be happy about it you have to pay a small price for it! If G1 was still in control you would still be shit out of luck on getting unbanned. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kewlin 692 Posted June 7, 2018 I mean, I'm happy about all this, but honestly, as someone who's deeply invested in APB's economy. . . I really don't think letting hackers have their money would make a huge difference. First off, you have to consider that missions will never be as fast as creating or trading for making money. I doubt even a good hacker could make a mil a week without spending a shit ton of time, but I know people who could make a mil for every item they create if they really want, and I know I personally could easily make 5-10mil a week if I tried at all back when trading was big. Second, you have to figure that this only really penalizes people whose assets are liquid. Not that I got banned, but I, for example, have millions and millions of APB$ worth of legendaries, and don't even have a 1mil in cash. I know a lot of players who were banned must have had fortunes in symbols, themes, and legendaries. Plus, since more players is going to inflate the economy more anyways most likely, a few billion / trillion or whatever added back into the economy isn't going to do much in the long-term anyways. Anyways, I appreciate it, and I'll be happy to have some friends back, but I really just don't see how removing their liquid assets helps. 3 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chinook 144 Posted June 7, 2018 Taking away some monopoly money shouldn't really be something to start crying over, if you're given a new chance with your account that has potentially hundreds of dollars worth of real money purchases. Yes it may suck for someone who has potentially been banned for no reason, but then again, quite a few bans have happened and I'd like to think that they have mostly been for actual reasons, yet almost nobody has come to forums and say "sorry, I've done bad things"...

Shui 225 Posted June 7, 2018 48 minutes ago, MattScott said: We are unbanning players caught up in the KTTC and FFA issues. We aren't in a position to do refund anyone prior to Little Orbit taking over. But I will grant G1C to players who paid on or after May 10th to unlock their accounts. PLEASE be patient with Customer Support. We have just unbanned thousands of players, and they will be swamped even more than they are now. If you paid for an unban, please open a ticket and we will get you sorted out. Nice that you unban all the poor KTTC boys ... But why on earth would you unban FFA exploiters as well ? Also I would have deleted all legendarys on every unbanned account too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cr0 328 Posted June 7, 2018 (edited) Yay, exciting! It is impossible for LO to know exactly which bans were fair and not. It's impossible to investigate thousands of bans like that. The people who complain about getting their APB$ and JT wiped, please understand this and put your emotions aside.
