Secondly, do people really believe that ALL who were complaining on the forums over their accounts being frozen, were ALL innocent?? lol
.
1) Don't come in with a "first of all" like we were wrong, that happened well after this thread was created.
2) Secondly, no one believes they were ALL innocent, but I was one of them, and this is a post from my point of view. If you don't believe me, I can log into my account that is now un-banned and show you.

It's been well documented and mentioned several times about the situation. I myself tried to describe what was happening.
This whole thing gave me more confidence in SnailUsa. They mean business. Gold buying will not be tolorated. They are in it for the long hual, not the short term.
Wushu will be around long after this years crop of sub par games comes and goes. Maybe EQnext will have a chance, or maybe Malu, or The Repopulation. They wont be out this year though.
Not gonna hold my breath either. Gonna keep breathing this Wushu fresh air.
2) The gold sellers are still selling the same product, at the same price, in the same way.
Be truthful now. Price before the bans was 3$ per ding. after 9$. They took A LOT of bad monry out the game.
Just checking one site, for my server the price of 1 ding has gone down from $9 to $7. So no, they did not impact gold sellers in any way that will improve the game for their customers.

Blue Dragon, this morning. 500L for $5.50. Snail is $9 for 1D. So if you are the gold buying type (I never have) it's at the point were only a complete idiot would risk there account on third part sales.
even at 7$ only an idiot would risk thier account on that. much different prior to the ban hammer.

edit- you went to one of those sites? ewe nasty.
I always keep in touch with what my assets are worth, even virtual ones. Virtual currency sales got me through a pretty rough patch of unemployment recently.
I agree that the changes made it so that players would have to be stupid to buy gold from third parties now. However, the third parties price hasn't changed drastically for red phoenix, snail just lowered their rediculous price.
Think about it: before this change third party sites with business overhead costs were somehow supplying ding at slightly over 600% of the efficiency of Snail, who can create ding with 0% overhead. Snail was being greedy and paid the price for it.

Seems like you are determined to join the ones yelling: "Account got hacked, and it's ALL Snail Games fault!"
Let me break it down for you: Goldseller Sites > adware, malware, keyloggers > Account hacked
LOL at the whole thing. It is bad game design, when players have to buy currency at all, just to "keep up". Even when buying from the company itself. People that play these "F2P" games deserve the inevitable the headaches they get from the companies running them. (And the armies of bots and spammers to boot.)

... It doesn't work like that. I mean, unless you are visiting chinese pornsites on netscape to fill your floppy drive with thumbnails?
What you've said is akin to claiming you get herpes from looking at pictures of the Red Light District.
It is infact snail-games fault they are the ones who put in the automated ban system for trading gold at least everyone I know who has been banned made lots of in game currency and got banned for this.
http://www.ageofwushu.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=9898 If you take a look at this link this is the type of customer support you get, Snail Games also refuses to listen to any suggestion or take actions to fix bugs posted and reported to them they simply lock topics to cover their own reputations but that isn't going to do the trick. (Worst case I have had three topics of mine deleted for valid points that need fixing.)
If you want a true PVP, and SandBox game you are going to have to buy DarkFall AOW is okay for the casual gamer but not sure anyone wants to deal with a company like this I played AOW since it was in BETA I had good hopes for the game but not anymore after seeing all I have seen on their forums including moderators who just lock threads and bad support all around.
They are giving 10 days Free VIP time as stated in the post above, but what about the players who have banned wrongfully for Two Entire weeks, and what about those who have positions in schools and lost them lost their guilds because of this its their fault this should have never occur and bugs should have been fixed like this in Beta. In other words ban the gold spammers, adjust your gold exchange rates in game to match that of gold selling sites and problem solved.
They are basically pulling the same thing NCsoft did with my account after it was hijacked giving a set of bound gear Zero Customer Service and saying take it or leave it and I don't like companies like this.

Ren, what are you so butthurt about?
While I'm also pretty miffed about their whole "you must email us to give us feedback" method of forum moderation, at least they SOLVED their own problem. I had several friends with a good 80D+ each locked up for 2 weeks. Getting them back in the game was reward enough. They could have just as easily left them frozen forever.
Basically, Snail seems understaffed and consistently not on the same page as their China HQ. It's probably going to cause problems yet again in the future, but they seem content with putting out one fire at a time.

I was un-banned, found innocent, and apologized to. Furthermore, paypal settled my dispute in favor of the customer.
