Can I give you just one small suggestion?

Quit promising things that you can't deliver, and if there is any doubt, test it first. You manage to keep the community constantly aggravated because you consistently make promises you're unable to keep. Seriously, learn from your mistakes for a change.

the program was a great idea, especially to reward those who bring in a constant supply of cash to the game, but wow what a major flop. you need to constantly work at building the relationship with your customers and you never, Never promise something you cant deliver on or you loose so much credibility with your customer that you have to put so much more effort forward to rebuild what you already had and that it is not effective business.

delete this if you wish, if you do I'll know it was at least read once

so are you scraping the MAP system? I haven't seen it advertised as much if at all recently? it really is a great concept just wish you did not have as many issues as your having with it.

Give them a break lol, it's not even like it's particularly important stuff you're missing. Just some vanity whatsits you don't actually need.

Blame the devs for this horrible, horrible, gamebreaking travesty of not receiving a small vanity item, not the GMs. :| Psst: When they say they're working on it, they probably are.

The GMs share in the blame for not testing this feature prior to promising to deliver it.

For what it's worth, I don't think anybody is really all that upset that a single vanity item has had a mix up. The problem is that nearly every time something is promised, there is a snafu involved. I haven't bothered to keep a list of all the times it's happened, but if I had, the list would be long.

Completely valid point. I have no idea, but I think it might be the same thing that's responsible for both this and past delays-- the replacement myrrh (for the bank bug) took a month to arrive, but at least we did get it eventually. Maybe once whatever the problem is with the mail system is fixed, things will be given out on schedule again.

Hi everyone....although we may all be disappointed with this giveaway atm, look at it from a different perspective. With all the activity the GM's have been up to recently, and the giveaways that actually did work for them and us, and with the contests and promos that are currently active...I for one am not gonna throw them under the bus because this one has a problem. They have had to deal with a major content update, server merge, and things like facebook, twitter, and whatever other social networks they follow. I think they are doing a good job overall but that is jmho.

The bottom line for me is this....it doesnt matter what promo is what or when or how long....I will still use the Cash Shop probably every month until I dont need to anymore.

And all of you probably will too....so take the free stuff when and whenever, and enjoy the game!

I mean...after all....that is what it is :)

We appreciate your patience with receiving the rewards from June's MAP reward. You guys fulfilled the requirements and deserve to have the item which you will receive. We have no plans to get rid of the program since it's a nice promotion to award you with special items. Right now we are overcoming a hurdle with efficient item delivery and are closer to resolving the issue. We expect to have smoother item deliveries in the future.

For the Ones that complained above Pio's Post:

wow... do you look at what your typing? cause I did. And if you look real close, your Immaturity is boiling out all over the place. Who do you think you are? these guys are working their asses off for this community. One thing doesn't work and its "MURDER AND MAYHEM". These Items are free. You bought 15 bucks worth of crap. You don't DESERVE anything else. But because they love their community they are showing their appreciation. Why don't you show a little bit of yours and just dig deep down inside yourself and find that half ounce of patience your parents told you about and.... Be Patient!!!

No rebuttal necessary. I have spoken
