That would make the company look really bad if you had to agree to that. I can't see how people would not want thier time back. How about making us agree to if we have problems with our account your not allowed to get fixed. Thats what that rule would signify.
Thinking or assuming that a company will offer a service 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, without any errors or downtime....and if there is downtime....you will be reimbursed...... is absolutely ludacris.

Every MMORPG I've played (Ultima Online, EverQuest, SWG, Diablo2) have all had server problems and have scheduled and unscheduled downtime. However, there is no "reimbursement" (Well, D2 doesn't cost...obviosly) for the time you lost while the servers were down. It should simply be added to the user agreement for Graal to prevent future controversy over the entire issue.

Of course exceptions could be made if the game servers were down for...several days or a week or something.

However, your comments about people buying gold time for HOSTED is dumb, and that nobody would ever do that? I did.

I didn't buy my gold time to slay a few mobs on Kingdoms, I purchased mine so that I could work on Graal Kingdoms, and work/play on Hosted upcoming playerworlds being worked on by friends. So, you're wrong there. I do occasionally enjoy a vacation on Kingdoms, but that's not my primary reason for buying Gold time.

Nobody's thinking that they will, Curtis. However, it is not unreasonable to request compensation for a day of unscheduled downtime.

Well, I don't even have to point out the obvious - Graal is not "every MMORPG you've played." Why shouldn't Graal go the extra mile? Like I said, it would have been a nice gesture. From what I understand, though, it's a difficult one. So, there's a good chance it won't happen.

Stefan and unixmad's decision.

Where do you draw the line?

On Debug, you mean.

Personally, I don't see how "people bought gold access for X or Y or Z" really enters into this discussion, as it was a large part of the Graal network that was down...
