Well you made it sound like you were suggesting that I only thought the US offered better customer service just because I was on holiday, my response is that that isn't the case because I've been on holiday elsewhere yet not been pleasantly suprised by the service, hence disproving that there's any link between me going on holiday and my view of customer service whilst I'm on holidayI don't see why my argument could be more flawed. I never implied anything whatsoever about where or how often you go on holiday. I was saying that peoples impressions of things depend on whether or not they are on holiday. Maybe most countries have worse service than the UK; certainly France can be diabolical if you are an English speaker.
Yep that's the oneSharkith wrote:what a coincidence - Xest you know the way you were saying someone got into the system before? Is this the incident:

I'm guessing it was before your time? If so then I should let you know that the real visible results of the hack itself only happened for a night or so whilst the people doing it spawned various high level mobs in emain. Of course, one night with that kind of issue isn't too bad, we could deal with that. On top of that there was then the issue of people who didn't have uptodate e-mail addresses not receiving their new passwords and hence losing their accounts, or if they'd traded accounts (which to be fair on GOA is against their terms) their pass maybe e-mailed to the old owner and in some cases people lost accounts that they had purchased. If you were unfortunate enough to lose access to your account because of this you had to contact GOA and have the passwords sent you via snail-mail or some such, all in all leaving some people without their accounts for an entire month, even though they'd paid their subs. It was just another case of GOA making a bad situation worse Well, i bet the ad-spammers don't have to deal with OT............Xest wrote:Following that GOA then decided to reset everyone's passwords (which is fair enough) but of course, in true GOA fashion it took GOA like 2 weeks to e-mail everyone out there passwords which, as Cyfr pointed out recently elsewhere is odd seeing as spammers manage to chuck out a few million e-mails a day
Wouldn't be hard to automate it with random passwords tbhGuinnessrules wrote:Well, i bet the ad-spammers don't have to deal with OT............
I blame the bastids that made OT for everything!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
But to be serious, sending out spam-mails and passwords is a totally different thing. GOA had to send unique emails to everyone of us seperatly. The spammers just adds shitloads of email adresses in the send-list. Guess goa could have made it in a few hours if they had given all of us same passy......

All I get is an ad for a file download service. Am I missing something here?
