I've been doing the Cragwind quest Shrine of Wind and had one of the shrines bug twice and eat two dull shards. So I figure no problem and petition around 6pm at night. 20+ hours later I finally get a reply, and I was online most of the time except to sleep so it's not like I missed them.
So I get two dull shards restored to me and then realize that the results of each shrine is a no rent item that I lost waiting for the first petition, so I petition again. (interestingly enough you're supposed to be able to trade in the no rent bits for replacement shards so you can at least do things over, but the quest giver is broken and won't take your no rent items, so you have no choice BUT to lose them).
Again 18 ****ing hours later I finally get an email from the GM. In my petition I explained that I lost the no rent items while waiting for the first petition, but she still says there's nothing she'll do about it because she warned me to use the dull shards she gave me at my own risk. I guess she can't ****ing read since it had nothing to do with the ones she gave me, and had everything to do with a bugged ****ing npc that won't trade when he's supposed to.
To make matters worse I finished the lesser shrines quest, so now the npc won't even trade in the silvers that require tons of farming into more dull shards, so I don't even have the option to regrind the quest and am missing the no rent bits to finish it.
First of all I thought they'd looked into petition times. It's not like the game can have that many people petitioning as the populations aren't that high. Every time I've ever needed a GM the same one has talked to me, so they're obviously understaffed and the CS is as shitty as ever.
Secondly, what kind of asshole designed the Shrine of Wind quest line. It takes so ****ing long to grind and is so ****ing bugged. The least the GMs can do is be understanding instead of just letting players waste like 50 hours of grind times because of lame ass bugs.
I've tried really hard to support this game, but lately I'm starting to lean towards hoping it crashes and burns because they don't even seem to give a shit about the players at this point.
