In my opinion, SOE needs to think alittle more as to the outcome of their solutions... Really I know it's your game and all but we pay to play it, and some of us have been around from the start. You want to see another group of players leave the game just cause you wont right someone's wrong? In the past the mistakes of SOE were the reason for people leaving but now you have the power to fix this issue, and not by refunding everyones info. All you need to do is just give blazin a mask, nothing more, nothing less. It will do nothing and it wont cause any problems.

Blazin is so mad right now that he might leave, dispite most of the community backing him up there isn't much we can do. For someone that works so hard to get something that he is promised  and then doesn't get it only gets shafted as SOE tries to please the rest of Recursion, the only thing that would please Recursion is giving blazin the mask, 30 million info is nothing and if I do get the refund, trust me it's going to blazin. I'd perfer if in the future, these problems be handled alittle better, perhaps more time should have been taken on the matter and SOE was just to quick to say no you cannot have your prize....

Reconsider your answer SOE or I feel a few players might be leaving in the near future over something so stupid as a prank...

After /random-gate, the weapons were replaced with Brewko Dolls.  I myself felt they should have been given a Perp to replace the weapon but thats beside the point.  Handing out 'valuable' items would cause problems in the future incase anyone else gets messed over or something.  I do think he should get the Mask though, I'm just trying to look at it from the CSR point of view too.

This is like a very public trial, when the verdict is passed if its not what the masses were looking for there is bound to be complaining. Its the way of the world.

If decisions are made, if the jury comes back with a verdict that does not reflect the views of the majority then the only logical next step is riot or revolution.

Actually, we both got a little more than Brewko dolls but I do see what you're getting at. Personally I believe that because he went through all that he does deserve the Mask. It really wouldn't be fair if he got thrown a couple of rewards like Brewko dolls after he went through the whole tournament and it's participants, unlike myself and Rik because we didn't actually "earn" the FM-1500's but were given them due to a /random competition, Blazin however has in my eyes and many others earned the Mask and he should get what he fought for.

Also GQ, Viva la Revolution! SMILEY

You all do know this is a video game and not real money and items that I can use in the real world? Yall got scammed on an epic level. That doesnt mean the kid needs to get a mask. People get scammed on the net all the time that does not mean they really should become the kind of some african country or however that email scam goes. That stuff does and sadly did happen here. Sorry yall all took the bait but as along as you got your money back then I do agree with SOE for once. Otherwise I want a free PS3 and Xbox360 like the sites ADVERTISE I WILL GET. This is all my opinion. You dont have to agree.

Easy for you three to say; you didn't win.

I see it from both sides. I don't think SOE can resolve the issue with what we would consider justice, even though they have every right to do so if they choose. It would open the door, however, to future situations where people would perpetrate an opportunity to scam an item/money from SOE itself.

I didnt even particulate.  However people do "win" all the time on internet scams do they not deserver  what their HARD EARNED MONEY  said was promised to them. It was a scam.  I know he and yall "trained" hard for this event. They scammed yall and admitted to it.  If he was given a mask because of a player event whats to stop others from making fake accounts to get some epic item.  As outrageous as that sounds would you really put it past people to do that on a MMO. People do buy fake gold on ebay all the time. Folks will go threw crazy stuff for that one epic item.  Dont get me wrong I do feel bad for yall. Live and learn.

If it was up to me. I would give back all the money that was scammed and Ban/Temp-Ban (depends on how many offenses they did) Then do a SOE sponsored tourney but not for an assassins mask but something less epic just to make it fair. The mask event happened years ago and its now over.  Also in fairness to the other servers host the same style event on the other 2 servers as well. Thats about as close to what I would consider justices in this event. Now to rally the masses to get SOE to say ok we can do that is another story. Granted the dude will have to fight all over again for an item he should have won. It sucks but you really cant please everyone in the world.

Frankly, I don't think Blazin wants his $info back. He doesn't need it. So if you really want to give it all back and make it like it never happened, give him back the month he spent training for the tournament. Oh,I'm sorry, you can't do that? Then how about giving him the prize that everyone who entered the tournament was vying for and he rightfully won?

The most we can do is try to put things back to the way they were before it happened and try to make sure it doesn't happen again (which is a feat unto itself). Unfortunately, there are no easy feel good solutions to situations such as these (even when it appears that there is). It is always sad when a few can bring so many people despair and bad feelings into an environment that should be about having fun.

sponsor a SOE sanction tourney with reward items being the new loot or an FM-1500 or one of the perpetual items for 1 2 3 places. I think that would help some but not 100% in my opinion. Glad to see yall comment on this event.
