I think the basic idea of "scaling" up the benefits is good but why give so much more more to high level players who already have as Private Island, an Anti-Tank gun and more money than God? The "scale should top out at the middle ranks, King Ace is something like a level 50+ along with a few others, so the top of the scale should be half of that; say level 25 and then it should begin to scale down. No matter what solution is offered there will be those who will love it and those who feel totally screwed. Some will be over compensated while others will be undercompensated.
JUST GIVE THE 3 MIL PER LEVEL then no one would complain they have till the 27th to level up and get 50 points just chill people a little cash for a week+ of lost energy and crimes job status losses dp losses some of us lost alot chedburn should stick with his post its like his word his honor
I played for past 35 days until the down time. I got lvl 10 and now my account has gone.. How can u know the data in each account that does not exist. How u know & how u can give the money to me or other player? futhermore, the data cant recover right? hmm.. let see..
"I think.. I think.. I think.." Have you noticed that mostly, (notice Isaid mostly) everyone who is against this is already in a palace or higher. Maybe they are right, 3 million is to much, but I believe it upsets them that alot of people are getting it easy. And some are, its true. But why not just take it, I bet if we were all living in a shack now alot of people would worship Ched for his generous offer. It might change the game, but maybe for the best. I suggest just letting the dice role.
Im not in a palace and I dont necessarily agree with that amount of compensation. I've lost alot as has everyone but over-compensating will not help matters. Like I said before You cannot keep everyone happy. My suggestion would be some kind of sliding scale compensation like has been mentioned. The most important thing to do is keep everyone informed and for staff to be polite and approachable by everyone.
When the site was only down for the five days, or however long it was, I was thinking that giving everyone 5 times their energy and nerve might be a way to make up for the downtime and quell complaints.
This could still be the solution--give everyone extra energy and nerve in accordance to how much time was knocked off their accounts.

nor am i in a palace i am in a penthouse come on but i am a fair thinker
well i think the compensation is a good idea and the above will be fine but for per level. is that level before or after. i was level 10 before and now im back to level 7 so do i get 421,000,000 or $30,000,000?
i agree nothing for anyone under a certain level maybe level 5. Also before it is done you need to do a mass multi ban. As the announcement has been made im sure several accounts have been created to take advantage and i know you can catch some but im not sure you can catch them all.
The other problem is for levelling, some people (including myself) levelled since this backup.
i thought the server backed up every night? you seem to be missing VAST amounts of data. e.g. bank dates my acount was about 12-13days to go i think and its about 44 now!
Thats a good start. I was starting to think we were going to have to take this one dry.
If we could also work out some sort of a system with the loss of levels and busts and crimes. I lost a couple merits from crime counts 1 from busts and one from lenght of time in a faction.
But so far so good .
Thanx ched.
well i said a minute ago thats it better then nothing, but the stronger players can then go and pick on the weak ones to take their money...i know i will
instead of 100% money compensation, try compensation with various options, so ppl would able to choose which ever compensated them the best:
for example:
money (depends on lvl, etc...)
merit (10)
level Exp (1-3% of your current accumulated level exp)
crime Exp (1-3% of your current accumulated crime exp)
items (drugs or primary weapons)
DPs
furthermore, it will prevent inactivies from being credited.
