I think it was about time that rather than just posting and waiting for a response, some action was taken.
What about drafting a 'players are pissed at Standing Stones games support' letter/email and sending that to several gaming sites/magazines? They obviously have no intention on responding to problems if they have tickets at are 7months+ old so we need weightier help.
Thoughts?
This really is ridiculous. I'm trying to subscribe to their game and they won't let me. lol.
Where are they? Boston? Someone call Boston PD and have them do a Wellness Check on Standing Stone Games. Maybe they'll get the message.
(That's a joke, BTW. Don't actually call the police. I feel like I need to say that.)
I came back after about 8 months. banned until 2049. I doubt I'm going to get a response from support. Very disheartening I just wanted to play the game again.
I think this might get a good chance of getting a quicker reply.Quote:

From my experience (waiting 7,5 months for a reply), there are two types of helpdesk employees. Some low level ones that have authoroty do do the easy requests. They give a rather quick reply. Asking about the reason for your ban might just be such an easy request.
And then there's a few high level employees. The more complex tickets are theirs. Those tickets include hacked accounts, and account/password errors and the like. Waiting times here are counted in months.
After 1 day, both tickets got merged into the original one. No further action on the original one though. But I did get a name of the helpdesker who looked into the new tickets: Eldanak. Can't find that name on the forums though.Quote:

i know i brought the expansion gundabad 10 days ago and it still not activated on my account in game and this rate i will be to use lotro points to buy it, the only problem then is how do you get a refund.
what also is annolying is every i log in there a in game message saying buy this area , when i already have.
I'm at more than 5 months, so get used to waiting.
Some news?
I have two tickets one since Oct 8th .
One of the tickets is the new fire aura from the fan bundle pack ($130 package) where the aura doesn't glow on one of my main toons. I expect it to work for the price I paid so please fix.
And it works on your other toons?
Michelle, please explain why I have tickets that are over a month old with no response whatsoever. Explain why I have tickets vital to progress, and no one appears to be reading them. Does this game even have Customer Service anymore?Quote:

A bit like the response time to tickets, I dont think she's replied to anything here since the thread was created on Dec 19 2016Quote:

Hi, i am waiting for my ticket for 3 months now, can anyone please take a look? ticket #198465
HI SSG,
Please respond to my tickets,
205774
191330
Ive been waiting 3 months,
I spend a ton of money on this game, please just help me out.
Greeting and thank you for the new support page. My wifes account was hacked. They immediately changed the password and then email. Without other forms of verification we were locked out. They immediately purchased services and items in Rubles for over $400 usd. I think I was able to keep the payment from going through time will tell. I contacted you through the email paypal provided as well. The reason I'm writing here is because the new support portal has no category for reporting a hacked account. How might we go about recovering this account without other means of authentication in place? Change your passwords people.Quote:

We had over $600 lost to them buying lotros and whatnot to pad up the account before I could stop it. Being on social security and stuck at home, Lotro was also our main source of joy as well. We have never had a problem in 10 years of playing. Hoping for a quick resolution. And change your passwords if it has been a while people.Quote:

We lost over $600 before I could do anything. Paypal says it is authorized so if standing stones can't or won't reverse those charges we are in dire straits. Not to mention our only source of joy left was Lotro and she says after 10 years she won't start over if she doesn't get her account back.Quote:

I know its stressful and a few days seems like forever but any issues they have had in the past with not responding are being dealt with. Maybe submit a new courteous ticket if you think your not in the new system. Great job Customer Service!!Quote:

As a lifetime subscriber (from launch), it is shameful what SSG is doing/not doing. Great that they are making more content free to play, but inexcusable that paying customers are actively being ignored. What kind of crazy system prioritizes a 5 day ticket vs a 5 month ticket. Almost makes me wonder if OP is a SSG shill.... Oh well
