I have a ticket that has been sitting with no response for too long. It is about a plot issue on the Chaos server. It was posted on the 17th of June. It received no response until I nagged for one, with Velea answering on the 19th. She stated that she and the database administrator would address the problem the following week. No such luck. I made several replies after Velea's response but received no answer. That single message on the 19th was the last I heard from anyone until I complained on this board and PMed Amon for help. He checked out the ticket and posted a reply on June 25th stating he would e-mail Velea and the database administrator for an update. There have been no replies since even though I have replied to the ticket, and zero progress on the situation. I PMed Amon again but he never answered.
My problem is serious to me; the time I spend playing this game is serious to me; and the money I spend every month to play this game is serious to me. Why is it that two weeks and nearly 100 tickets from other users later that no effort has been made by anyone to address this situation? The careless attitude toward and the lack of concern for my problem are disheartening and disconcerting, this from a company to which I give my hard-earned money every month. This issue is one many players would likely quit over, and the serious failure to communicate has me wondering whether this is a company I truly want to continue investing my money into. I am frustrated and angered at the pathetic quality of service I have received over this ticket.
If it is that impossible to coordinate the database administrator I would appreciate any kind of response telling me so, to make me feel as though someone over there is actually aware of this ticket and cares and is going to invest their energy into resolving it. I understand the people who work at Virtrium are busy, but I am not paying you for nothing, and I expect a certain level of customer satisfaction when it is my money leaving my account every month and I have a serious problem.
There must be some curse on this ticket rendering everyone who views it deaf, blind, and mute.
If the issue is going to be ignored then simply close the ticket and spare me the trouble, and I will cancel my subs. I have enough to worry about, I do not need to worry about whether or not anyone is actually going to get motivated enough to take care of my problem. At this point it's no longer about the problem, it's the principle of the matter. Terrible customer service leads to loss of customers. Having my problem treated with such lack of empathy and disrespect for the amount of time and effort I have poured into this game over the years has left me with a very bitter taste in my mouth. Why do I have to work this hard for customer service?
