PlayNC lack of Customer Support
mr_groovy
Congrats cats on getting your account back. The only thing i don't get is. They were saying your account would be banned because they would bot with your account. They din't create a new monk, and they did strip your monk. They would bot with a Dervish? Very odd. Oh well I still get the purps.

I think I have to ask the support, why I donĀ“t have the option to change my email address. And congrats to Cats for getting your account back again.

If you can't find the answer there use "Ask a question"

Be serious, 16 hours for a response is not that much reason to make a hate thread.
I had some uncommon issues on the past and Customer Service always worked them out for me.
IMHO they are fine.

At my job, if any of us pulled that kind of crap on a customer we would be fired instantly, and rightly so. In Play NC's case that kind of crap is apparently not only allowed, but it seems to be their policy. Theirs nothing wrong with "Bash Play NC support" threads like this. Play NC support is trash and deserves to be complained about, otherwise Anet will not know it needs to be fixed. Its true that they occasionally resolve issues, but its often either a very simple issue that was an ID-ten-T error to begin with or it isnt resolved nearly as fast as it could have been, after the main blow of the damage has already been dealt. |

Gaile Gray ArenaNet You should not need to send a follow-up. Here's what happens: All updates to the ticket are presented on the Ask a Question page. (That actual answers are not emailed to you.) Each time that Ask a Question (your personal ticket) page is updated, you will get an email telling you to click the link to review the latest update to your issue. You click the link, get the update, and add to the ticket if you have more to say. But first, though, while still in the system submitting the issue at the very beginning, you will be offered a list of potentially-helpful links. When you get those links, you will then be asked if you wish to submit a ticket and if the links did not solve your issue, you should do so. Speaking to support just now, it's possible that some small number of people are not submitting a ticket because they're not clicking the proper button to do so. You must submit a ticket through the Ask a Question page in order to get into the queue, and the very next update will not be an automated response, but will be from the first tier of review, letting you know the initial steps towards problem resolution. I hope this is helpful. __________________ Gaile Gray Community Relations Manager ArenaNet |

Oh yes of course. Obviously because you got decent support then everyone who got bad support CLEARLY must not be following directions.
...or not.
If you actually test their support by asking multiple questions you'll notice a pattern: They are only good at fixing common issues . Ask a question that poses a real problem that requires a case specific solution to fix, then they give you the runaround.
You fail.

Your post is one that every guru poster needs to read before posting any comment.
We are sent HERE and sites like guru. My join date is the same as my first misfortune with emailing Anet support. The higher the post count a person has the less credible they are to me. Many play guru more than guild wars and shouldn't slam people having problems or concerns with a game they hardly even play.
The OP wouldn't have been posting where he was SENT to if his problem had been resolved at Anet. Something every person hitting submit reply needs to remember.

Also mods going happy on the "lock" button need to remember this, as well. If an issue keeps popping up, it's probably not because everyone in Guid Wars needs to "Learn2Play" or "Try again next week"...
Forums are meant for discussion. Once you stop allowing people the right to discuss their problems, what's the point of a forum?
PlayNC is directing people who play Guild Wars to forums such as this. Don't turn them around and say, "Send in a support ticket."
Turning your car into on-coming traffic is counterproductive.

Having been mod on a hig-throughput webforum, I can't help but sympathise with guru mods which are put in between Anet/GW and the users ...
