I too am thankful for the fix on the new ones logging in not receiving the high br after that part of the bug was fixed. And the ones that did log in lost all they had..the high br..titles etc. But the fact does remain the ones who have not logged back in still retain the high br and titles. These people are not going to log back in..they have either left the server or were alts that will not log back in. The guilds that were honest and did not accept any of these players are now being punished in a sense as they remain lower in what they had achieved. Some lost their titles and some guilds dropped in guild strength. Our guild which was #3 in strength dropped to #7 when this bug occurred and as of today 1-3-2016 remains #7 in guild strength. Readings for GB's for next week come out Sunday and if this remains the same we will be #7 slot for GB next week. That is if the other guilds do not have others join their guilds. I know it is the weekend, but please see if this can be fixed.

Although this bug has been addressed, and I thank R2 for doing this emergency maintenance, today January 30th, 2016 rankings still show a lot of these players with 100k br and even though the guild I am in which was ranked 3rd in guild strength is still now ranked 7th, readings are taken tomorrow I believe for next week guild battle rankings, these players who used this exploit have not logged into those characters, which was necessary so that their battle rating is adjusted, are still effecting the more important rankings on this new server. I want to thank those who tried to resolve this issue through the emergency maintenance, but as long as these toons do not log into the server, the br's still remain ridiculously high.

Not complaining about anything but just wanting to give a head's up on how things are shaping up, I believe alt's were made and brought into guilds and then never logged back in again.

and u wanna take 100k br from new players lmao how lame is r2 scrooges

u rush to fix this but u cant fix proper bugs makes me laugh

Maybe on your server it wouldnt matter. But when a lvl7 new player has a 100K+ br it does matter to a newer server where people that started day 1 only have half that br. So..yes..ty to R2 for fixing the bug.

My bigger question would be: will R2 roll back the new characters that were created with this monstrous BR since they got the ahead in the following:

Forgotten Catacombs: Now completed, one who is reverted back in BR will now be able to blitz all the way to 99 and reset to repeat (they don't have to do level 100), building enough Crypt Tokens to get items faster than what it will take a legit player time to get. Blitzing doesn't care what a character has on since there is no fights involved, just time in letting the items come to them without earning.

Tormented Necropolis: If they managed to reach level 10 (with only passing the first 9 levels), they can blitz just like Catas.

I am sure there are other places where a boosted BR would have exploit along with a "freebie" way of receiving items that puts the current top players at a disadvantage.

Was there anything that was actually fixed in this maintenance? Why for example did XSGB not get moved to Sunday where it's supposed to be?

just when I run halfway in DI?
Those compensations are so freaking nothing compared to how far the stages I can reach in DI!
I want my Attempt of DI BACK!

No one cares what you were doing or where you were. The compensations are given in a standard measure (according to R2, ofc.) & it's for all players across the servers.
That said, the disappointment is understandable at the potential loss of golds and other in-game rewards due to the emergency maintenance, but one has to deal with it.

Also compensations are to compensate for the loss/damage incurred. It never returns the original value in any case. Surely the quality can be increased. Instead of 2 mil., 20 mil. can always be given, but it's entirely at their discretion.

Well, I dont know what the maintenance was about, but it seems to have resolved my collection bug issue, working great right now :P

Hey, she's trying her best, mate. I have to give her some credit. Many people in the new servers (less than 2 weeks old) are having a hard time since guilds were made with these monstrous BR players that knocked off legit hardworking ones from the top 8. Not only that, but I find it funny, and frustrating at the same time, that these new jacks (lowest I had seen a 34) completed forgotten catacombs, and were on their way to doing necro, with nothing more than the 2 basic pieces of equipment that were given to them when they started the game. 15 million BR in two week's time is pretty hard to come by unless you mega whale everyone in the same guild.

I don't know about the old servers, but we would have been in trouble if they didn't fix this and let these accounts run rampant as regular GB would be denied to the top guilds. Takes 1 account, 200k gold (easily gotten off the devotional link), and a bunch of "followers" to make 8 top guilds to just practically do "nothing" when GB comes.
