    He won't get ALL of them back, because undoubtedly he would have lost them anyways being the richest member, but I am sure somewhere in the 25-50% ball park wouldn't be out of reach.

    That's not too bad.

    After that, can you guys enforce some kind of rule for people that start bitching will get warned or something. <_<

    Then again, it IS kinda funny to read...

    The bitching will continue, but I believe an announcement will be up later tonight to tell the members our intentions, and to please allow time for this change to mellow down. All the changes on GR have been drastic at first, but gradually people adjust and end up seeing the bigger picture, which is what the mods have been trying to allow the members to see via communication, but as shown it hasn't been too successful.

    Because we know that without a doubt he would have been the first person targeted, being that he was the apparent richest member on GR, sitting with over 100,000 credits in his account. Although the staff did do a large bit on his credits (at least 50-60k worth) we all know that members would have hit him equally hard had it been later in the morning when more regular members were on, so we find it fair to reimburse him for the credits that shouldn't have been removed due to the item abusing from staff.

    no, staff abused the item, under normal circumstances he would not have lost the massive amount he did, THATS why he will be getting some back.

    Put it this way, he was hit by the staff after the staff were asked to go easy with it, he was hit for over 100,000 total, 60,000 from staff, who abused their privileges, he doesn't deserve that, and deserves a slight refund, as he was overly punished than what even the regular members were. As said, he won't get a full refund, because he was the obvious target to all members who used the item, but he will get some back.

    ok, the staff abused him so members wouldnt, if the staff didnt abuse me the members obiously did so why dont i get some back because only members took mine? if ebk only had members take his would he get them back? . i was a target, he moves down in the ranks with 60k gone and i move up and more people steal from me.

    no traet says intelligent things, and doesnt go on and on despite you telling him exactly why things are happening the way they are.

    i accept all apologies and such, but damn can't believe majority was staff.
    i knew i was gonna be a target, but not in a "raid" by staff; more like scammers/hackers etc..
    like i said before a loser is here to stay, i can leave like the others but GR ain't on top of my most important thing list ever.the amount of creds totaled in $, i can make in like 2 days of wrk. i worked hard for the creds and yes i did use it for a status symbol, b/c i made it 100k+ creds w/o buyin none. I don't know but it may have caused others to step their game up and i've been sittin on 100k over the past 6-8 months due to the fact that i don't buy cuz i don;t like what i see.

    again, i thank everyone for supportin me and others who lost big. i have no issues, besides i can't believe it was staffs. If you want to know how much i got back PM me and others who lost big pm me too.

    Well well well,
    another ----ty idea by an admin, and guess who did this? You already know, OFCOURSE.

    Anyways,
    I always thought gamerenders was a ''graphics'' community with ----ty tag people. But hey now this ----t idea came in ''a STEAL item'' hooray for the admins/mods. I hope you die soon. But like I said I thought it was a ''graphics'' community and not some ------ing maffia game where you can buy guns (ISN'T THAT A GOOD IDEA? PUT SOME GUNS IN THE SHOP!!!!!) and steal money.

    But hey,
    most people already knew GAMERENDERS.COM IS THE MOST ----TY'S GRAPHS. COMMUNITY on the INTERNET. So yeah, most of the gr people are nerds anyways. Come one, lets make a TAG and call it (you know the word..p..) and sell it!! We will get respect on Gr so we can hang out with the ''cool?'' people on GR.
