Not Receiving Support Emails

I did everything in the post about not getting the emails. So did the OP as he mentions he whitelisted the 2 guildwars2 official emails and mentions the sticky too.

Are you saying I should just keep creating emails and sending in new tickets until I happen to receive automated response? Bit silly is it not?

Not Receiving Support Emails

Charleston Chew.1209

I have the same problem, I need my email on account changed I already sent in 2 tickets (1 from gmail 1 from gmx) I have received exactly zero automated, or for that matter any, answer.

GM confirmed my ticket is in system but what good that is if I can’t communicate with support?

Quite ridiculous…

Well I hate to bump my own topic but the issue IS rather pressing and I have yet to receive any response on any of the 2 emails I used.

Well I made what you suggested, created new ticket, referenced the original ticket number and sent it from @gmx.com email.

And I have not received the automated reply yet again. So what do I do now? Is there any “guaranteed” email that will work? I would think majority of people use gmail.com so I fail to see why it wouldn’t work for me

For reference,
original ticket: #1049580 (sent from @gmail.com)
new ticket: #1050327 (sent from @gmx.com)

Oh, the email in the post is not related to the game in any manner, as I have noted I use several gmail.com addresses for different purposes and the game uses outlook.com. But I see it’s been removed by the moderator anyway so no harm done in the end I guess:)

Thing is I did everything suggested in the sticky and there just haven’t been any automated response. Which makes me worried I might miss the actual response.

The email provided during ticket creation is gmail.com, the current email registered with the game is outlook.com and the email I wished to change to is yet different gmail.com address (I have several for differing purposes, the address provided for the sake of ticket creation is my “business” mail)

Only thing I can think of is in the rush I provided bad contact mail address, but that shouldn’t be the case as I had chrome autofill take care of it.

In any case the ticket number #1049580 should have come from [redacted], and that is also the address I wait for any reply on. Hope I’m doing it right. Or should I wait for the reply on the current email, or on the email I wish to change it into? I’m easily confused

I have not received any automated response e-mail, I checked all labels and spam folder. Since the issue is rather pressing (change of email due to current one being compromised) I would at the least welcome the definitive knowledge my ticket is in the system.

the support ticket number is #1049580

Is there any other way I see what’s happening with it apart from refreshing my inbox ?

Title says it all. I have to use proxy (Tor Browser) to type this.

Any attempt to open guildwars2.com or forum-en.guildwars2.com results in this when not opening via proxy:

I can login into the game no problem though. What gives? Are my radical snide fanboy remarks disregarding any notion of importance of anyone or anything other than my own agenda no longer wanted?

Where to farm now?

Posted by: Charleston Chew.1209

Charleston Chew.1209

Farming and speedclearing are not fun and no I don’t care anyone thinks he thinks otherwise. The minuscule percent of population doing it is ruining the game for the remaining masses.
I can only hope Anet will put stop to speedclearing same as they did with the nonsensical farms.

Precursors Drop Rate

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Charleston Chew.1209

Charleston Chew.1209

11 characters, playing daily since release, never saw a precursor drop nor do I know anyone who’d gotten one by drop. That’s probability. Do I think it’s fair? I don’t know, I don’t really care about legendaries so even if I’ve gotten precursor I’d immediately sell it.

No, it’s not what you wanted to hear, but the system works. It’s based on extremely low probability meaning you might never get one while someone else can get 3. Tough luck.

Charleston Chew.1209

Sorry to say but most of the suggestions / opinions in what of the thread I’ve read are in my opinion rubbish. You gotta start from the basics. Being a fanboy which I am is one thing but fair’s fair, and you can’t have enjoyable new content (especially not raids) with utterly pathetic non-working mentally challenged laughably ineffective AI with apparent zero thought behind it.

No.

30 mins of killing - profession specific loot

Charleston Chew.1209

30 minutes is nothing, not a statistical sample. Only ones crying about this change are the farmers and market flippers, none of which evoke any kind of sympathy from me. Normal casual player doesn’t notice any change, or notices positive change in drops that he can actually use.

Well yeah but in all fairness I really do think the 1 hour limit is enough. And I’m slowly learning that there might be others of another opinion, but it’s a process Though I wouldn’t support the increase to limit should it affect optimization (if that was the initial reason for the map popup).

I’m a pedantic feline by nature.

If a process using few Mb of memory and <0.01 Cpu time on average is causing you a negative impact you might want to consider upgrading your potato.

it’s been widely reported that the new TP is quite slow for a lot of people.

Well, as you might have surmised form my post i’m not one of them. Also saying “I have performance problems because x or y” is worth nothing. Provide logs. Show a screenshot with CoherentUI using excessive cpu or memory. Something, anything other than post backed by vacuum.

“Widely reported (by whom and where?) quite slow (not at all relative or subjective especially without a point of reference) for a lot of people (how many is a lot?)” – You sir would make a perfect politician. Saying almost nothing with many words and all that.

By the Five, I love Charleston Chew.1209’s clever responses so much! The way he retaliates with his salty, zealous fanboyism to anything that remotely threatens his GW2 is priceless. I hope you and your likeminded peers continue to play this game for years to come, you deserve it.

God forgive me I enjoy the game you don’t. How dare I. Surely there must be something fundamentally wrong with me.

This is a thing that will never go away. Of the players actually playing the game (any game, any genre) only minuscule percent visits the forum and the kind that usually does are the forum warriors thinking that they got it all figured it out, annoyed at the rest of us for our inability to see their glorious vision.

Best thing is to do is keep enjoying the game you enjoy, the trolls are part of internet and there is nothing we can do to make them go away.

This just in. A game which is not to everyone’s liking. The foundations of earth moved as the whole world watched in silence as 1% of it’s playerbase left and…nothing happened and life went on. Better for those who do enjoy the game, might I add.

Fortunately for me, I live in a little thing that I like to call “reality”

So, your made-up statistics have no effect on me. YOU can watch in silence as a percentage of the playerbase WHICH NEITHER YOU NOR I HAVE ANY METHOD OF ESTIMATING leaves the game. For your sake, I hope that “nothing happens” when I and people like myself stop playing. It would look pretty bad for a developer to manage their game so horribly that they literally kill it with their own decisions.

But, I think we all know that your “1% of the playerbase” number that you pulled out of thin air is full of the proverbial brown substance.

For me, you and people of your mindset is what is killing the game. No matter what % of the populace you make the game will be better for me (and in my opinion for anyone of my mindset) when/if you leave the game.

Sorry to inform you this game is not free to play. It is buy once, play free. Their income is the new players buying the game and the existing players buying stuff from gem store should they desire so.

The great changes to leveling system in september feature pack are sure to bring in many a new player. Your point? Sorry, I missed it.

Anet isn’t completely silent. They did say there were bugs they were working on, including the fact that some of the new player experience was supposed to not carry over to existing players and did. They don’t know why yet.

Ohh Vayne, your loyalty is cute. ( cute is the best I could come up with , without having the porcelain bus waiting for me)

And your toxicity is obnoxious and annoying. Get it into your head that Anet isn’t making the game the way YOU or anybody else want, they are making the game the way they want. Don’t enjoy it? Don’t let the door hit you on the way out.

You won’t even give them a chance to make a mends?

I haven’t liked the direction that this game has been taking, for a long time. It’s not about making amends. This is the straw that broke the camel’s back. Arenanet would have to do more than revert to pre-9/9 to get me to invest my time in this game. Simply reverting the recent changes wouldn’t be enough. They’ve shown time and time again that they refuse to implement the changes that the players want in the game, and instead they focus on crazy stuff that they think will attract new players.

I’ve given Arenanet plenty of chances. They’ve failed in many ways, but the game was at least more fun than competing games in the genre. This isn’t about giving Arenanet a chance. This is about choosing to play a better game, and hopefully one that won’t be intentionally ruined by the developers.

I don’t play this game so that Arenanet can feel good about what they’ve created. I play this game because it is fun, or at least it was.

This just in. A game which is not to everyone’s liking. The foundations of earth moved as the whole world watched in silence as 1% of it’s playerbase left and…nothing happened and life went on. Better for those who do enjoy the game, might I add.
