well , after so many years , if MA was straught scammer they would have run away with money... specially before buying the cryengine...
But there is some time , after some bug or some problem , they really did all what they could to get a very bad reputation...even things that i will call stealing and scaming....
there is bug that i do understand they can not "repay" the player... but there was many bug that did cost lots of money to player , and MA did not compensate...for me its stealing...
I can speak for exemple of the refiner bug...where player did spend the total TT of a refiner ( for me it was tailoring refiner 15 ped) in 1 simple click , and MA did not pay back...
MA is not straight scamer since , from what i know , they always pay the withdral that player make...
At least for me they always did pay , and it always worked very good and , even if sometime for some player its a bit long , they do pay...
But really , MA would have a lot better reputation if they had take care of it , and had a way more fair and inteligent support team and also , did comunicate a lot more about bug or problem...
They hidding bug habit make them looks suspicious,same for all the false things they say in PR and interview...when the CEO keep claiming the cash card work right now when it is remouve from game for 2 year and did work only 4 month is insulting inteligence of all reader and specially player...
I think MA should revisit most of their comunication politic...it just lead them to looks very very bad...
