Well checked in the morning and checked just now, no gems for me. Same as last month. Be nice if blizzard could scrounge up some decent programmers. BTW I got a Living Ruby when I got the initial envelope for becomming friendly.

Don't bash the programmers. Just, don't bash them.

Why not? It's their fault isn't it? It would be one thing if this was a new issue, but this is the same crap that happend last month.

Just bumping this to help me justify the week I spent killing Zaxxis to get exalted.

You may not able be able to prove the meaning of life, but without my gemvelope, you prove there is no meaning to mine.

Q u o t e:
Folks, I regret to say there is an issue with the Gems being acquired by players that have completed the proper quests of the Consortium faction. The developers are aware of this and it will be resolved in a future patch.

future patch when?

isn't this problem known way back a month ago?

ETA on bug fix?

September 2007

Will players be given gems for January, February, March, April, May, June, July, Auguest that they missed?

Not a chance.

Wonderful. So I'll get the gems I earned in 5 or 6 months. So did the developers just ignore the problem when it happened in February in the hopes players wouldn't care? It's not like the issue just popped up this month. Talk about lazy.

Yep, honored Feb, Revered March, nothing, oh well.

In other words, no compensation for the months that payroll doesn't run, right?

If it's too hard to give retroactive payments based on reps at Feb and March 1st, we should recieve back pay based on our current reputations as compensation, and sending in extra waves of gems should be very easy to do.


I hope this is not another issue where the CMs apologize for poor coding and feature implementation and leave us with no compensation for customer loss. There are too many issues in this game where players are left holding nothing but empty apologies once an issue is finally fixed.

These types of bugs would be so much less annoying if so many of them couldn't be fixed with a few lines of sql and a frickin cron job.

Okay, heres something you could do in the meantime.

If yer exalted, you can flag yourself at war with the consortium and beat his pansy ass down until he gives you your frickin envelope.

Any plans to include February and March payrolls when this is fixed?

this was mentioned on feb 1st as well, mebe it shouldve been looked at for this coming patch...

blizzard just doesn't give a damn about what they promised, how hard is it to run a batch job mail us the gems? the damn bug is known way back in feb. you know with practice like this blizzard will get less revenue that's for sure

you can hot fix things nerfing class, why not give a hot fix give us what you owe? does blizzard have any honor?

/pissed

I also didn't get any gems... I talked to a GM and they are going to fix the issue but when this will ahppen is definitely down the road. It would be nice to see back dated gems for Jan-March... Since I am revered, I'm not planning on spending my time on this rep until they fix this known issue. It's poor planning on their part, that they didn't fix this issue last month.

I laughed, I was there to pick up my gems.

lol, wow I busted my ass off on feb 28th just to get exalted in hopes that the bug would be fixed and I would get a chance at a meta or epic gem, and low and behold I was let down once again by blizzard.

edit...

blizz is lazy about updating lots of stuff, such as my guild name in these forums, I haven't been in Jahalpino for weeks now.
