We would like to give you all an update on Support Tickets. Staff are all working extremely hard to restore the site to normal after the issues we had in February. We all want to recover from this as quickly as possible and move on. We suggested opening a Support ticket for the handful of avatars/pets/items that you are really sad to be missing or can't easily replace. We were hoping that you would be understanding and with the amount you gained from the recovery, you would use to rebuild anything missing. The number of support tickets we have received has been overwhelming. We simply cannot keep answering 500+ tickets a day and they still keep coming quicker than we can answer them! We understand that many players are still missing some items but please remember everyone received back a lot of items that they had previously used or sold. There are many more items on the site at the moment due to this and we strongly urge players to buy items from user shops where ever possible.
Please only send a support ticket for items that are rare or not available for sale on the site.
Many tickets we receive are asking for items players are missing that they had used/traded/sold already. Many are sending in Paypal receipts expecting a refund of items purchased that were used/sold/traded already. Some of these longer tickets are taking several hours each to investigate and deal with, only to be sent several more asking for other stuff. Our time was supposed to help return things you cannot easily replace. As a result of this, we are putting Pet Renames on hold again for this month and our Easter Egg Hunt may need to be cancelled this year if we cannot get these tickets under control.

The Basil, Bolimo, Flab, Grint, Paffuto, Quell, Yakubi and Zola can now wear the Tiger Costume.

I'm probably missing some stuff still, some might be the items you're speaking about that we could use a ticket for, I just have so much stuff I don't even remember all I had! :lol: But IMO, y'all went above and beyond with how you handled this whole situation... So I'm fine with not having everything I did before I got lots of extra items, some of which I didn't get beforehand. Thank you for your hard work in getting everything how it used to be for us (and /still/ answering and responding to all the tickets other users are sending).

It would suck to not have the egg hunt, but if someone is missing something that they really wanted back, I also want them to be helped. It sucks to have to wade through a bunch of piddly requests, but if there were a big one in there that would really help someone, I would want them helped if at all possible.

I know I'm missing a highly sought after wardrobe item but I realize that if I send in a ticket now I'm just making things harder on staff. Hence why I'm choosing to wait until the craze dies down. I really hope people chill out about virtual items and take note that people are spending hours of their life every day to make things right...

This is really depressing to hear, I myself am missing Several items that are hard to obtain, but I appreciated what I did get back, plus the extra, so I didn't see that it was necessary to send a support ticket in. I do hope the EEH goes ahead, it's always been my favourite event due to being born on easter day! I hope things get easier for the staff, you guys work so hard <3 :love::love:

I won't be sending a ticket either since the very few missing items I cared about I rebought or got back and I got a bunch of event stuff I never had to begin with so
I am more than pleased. People need to cool it with the tickets.

I've been gone for about 3 months and didn't realize that something happened. I thought I was missing a couple of my minipets. That explains where they went. I just hope this all gets fixed as fast as possible.

To be fair, the majority of mine (and most) people's galleries and collection lost significant worth after the crash.Which is why so many people feel like they lost more than they gained. The forest antlers for example went from UB to like 5k. The only things of worth was never given back.

One example for me, was my goal items from the daylight fairy was expensive and I couldn't afford to get it unless I was willing to sell my super cheap items. Another's problem was lack of circulation of those items. At the time, none were in trades so I couldn't offer anything.

Anyhow regardless of who lost what, Ian and staff has done an amazing job on not only helping users getting items back, but maintaining the site and updating new pet costumes frequently :thumbsup:

I can understand sending in a ticket for items that were in a players possession that is rare or no longer able to obtain. But to send in a ST for an item(s) that you know you sold/used/traded before the crash is plain out selfishness and honestly should not be honored. THAT is if I am reading that correctly.

However I will really be sad to see the EEH be cancelled and not see bunnykins.

And yes I am sure I am missing hard to obtain items as well sadly I don't keep a running tab on all my items. But I am happy with what I got back and I'll just rebuild. So no ticket from me. Thank you Mara staffers and Ian for everything.

Awh nooo. :( I literally put a support ticket in for two Avis I'm missing and that's it. The one I put in that got answered for an item I'd lost was answered fairly. You staff do a great job. I love the EEH.

I can understand the people who lost some valuable items and are upset by this but we were given back items that were long gone and duplicates to make up for the loss. Things can't be 100% back to the way they were but I feel we were fairly treated and compensated.. Good job Ian and staff. :love:
