Zian 68 Posted September 12, 2021 Just logged into APB after taking a long hiatus. All my Legendary weapons are missing. My cash is stripped down to only a couple of hundred of dollars. I can't contact support because now they've added extra hoops to jump through. I can't tell you how badly I want to go postal. I want fucking answers. That was $1K USD fucked with.

You better hope this breach has happened recently, I don't think LO keeps any activity logs longer than 1 month. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BS Those are extra hoops I never had to worry about before. They just asked what the issue was, you filled out the report, and you got a reply. I've had my account for a decade, and I would have to say it was far more convenient to have a line to GMs without any extra questions. Either way. That's the minor detail to the greater problem, and actually disappointing that's what people are focusing on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's the minor detail to the greater problem, and actually disappointing that's what people are focusing on. these are all questions that are intended to validate that you are the actual owner of the account previously these questions would be asked in the first reply to your support ticket, so orbit has actually attempted to streamline the process by including them in the initial ticket, instead of wasting time letting your ticket sit in the queue only for them to have to request additional info before actually trying to resolve anything it also doesn't appear to be mandatory that you fill out the extra validation in order to submit a ticket (i didn't attempt to actually put in a ticket so i could be wrong), they'll likely just attempt to confirm account ownership with other information its being focused on because its the only thing relevant to other players on this forum, we can't help you with anything else Edited September 13, 2021 by glaciers edit Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Also I was addressing Little Orbit. So you volunteering your help is appreciated, but I didn't ask for your help. I'm not trying to come off as rude. I am just pointing out the obvious that you're focusing on the least important aspect of the thread being made in the first place. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LilyRain 674 Posted September 13, 2021 You logged in to APB and found your things missing, meaning you have access to your account. This is good You may browse ARMAS history to show Support that you really bought these items before. Purchase History is no joke, it exists for such reasons. I heard people using it and got their things back, perhaps you can do the same. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I heard people using it and got their things back, perhaps you can do the same. I'm hoping. I just was trying to take the jump to see if they'd respond on here rather than me having to assume when I made my account in the first place. Also given that I have moved from where I originally lived when I first made the account, my IP address is different I am sure. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A lot of people also use VPNs to play since latency and routing are horrible (especially from Australia), so your IP being different won't really stop you or Support from seeing evidence and supporting you. One more thing, you may sign in to your E-mail and search for: gamersfirst - validation This will bring up the very first E-mail when you signed up, from which you can easily and accurately know the date at which your account was created. It should look like this: I'm hiding MY date for security-reasons but it is straightforward. I hope this comes in handy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
