OctoWow - Forums

Hello.

I think it would be fair move to give everyone free Donation Tokens due to server's instability that occured today. Players deserve compensation.

We get to play octo for free. We don't deserve anything.

Not fair for sure. I mean my 2 irl friends at vacation, didn't play for almost 2 week already. What fair to give tokens to those, who didn't affected? Give tokens FOR everyone will be unfair for those, who affected. Since we even didn't pay for it - your subscription is not spent. No reward. If you have nothing to do except octo - try to touch grass.

Of course it would be given only to players affected, I thought this is implicit. Turtle WoW did same thing when they were hacked if I remember correctly.

We missed our weekly raid schedule because of it. Can't just raid whenever we want to, have to schedule this for these numbers of people.

"Everyone" both at topic and at text. Everyone mean everyone, not "it's implicit".

i agree with this sunday night and this happens rip to all the people who wanted to spent their free time raiding tonight etc

Imagine wanting compensation for not being able to access a FREE server due to it being attacked. Entitlement is real.

Yes, you are correct.

Some of us have spent money and/or time (there are/have been ways to earn dono coins through participation) not that it entitles anybody to anything.

Feels bad for those people who were hoping to raid or play today but couldn't and will thus miss a week cooldown of MC and/or Ony.

For some, guilds will just schedule for Monday/Tuesday instead of Sunday, and have to maybe pug a few slots. Other guilds simply cant get the numbers unless its Saturday or Sunday and that's that. Some of those players will miss out because their team cancelled instead of rescheduling.

Octo is still showing strong growth and hitting during peak EU time on Sunday is a big hit to the momentum.

Sure, it's a free server, but there's my 2 cents.
