What to do when you're /stuck because of bugs in the game?

Blackhorne

The only time I've ever had to use /stuck is when the game either teleported me a great distance away from where I was (and consequently underneath the ground) or the game failed to load the the environment properly, causing me to drop below the ground or putting me inside the environment.
Since this is a failure of the game engine,which I have reported regularly for almost a year now, I don't think players should be charged gold for something entirely beyond their control. I also thing ZOS should take responsibility for the problems with their game.
I've thought of three things ZOS could do rectify this issue, in increasing order of strictness:
1. Refund the gold charge when /stuck is used from a place where the player is clearly stuck, and could not have gotten there through their own means.
2. Convert the gold charge into $USD (1:1, i.e, 81 gold = $81) and deduct it from their lead developer's salary until they sit up and take notice.
3. As 2, but credit the player's play time, until the entire company sits up and takes notice.

What do you think? Other options welcome.

I've only gotten stuck once and I've been playing since beta. I don't see why people are complaining about this all the time. It seems to me if you're getting stuck too often you're settings are too high for your rig or you're speeding through the area expecting the textures to load faster then they can. I dunno. That's just my opinion.

I've gotten stuck but never had the following problems. Early on I tested /stuck and it killed me, which I personally think was a better solution, it solves a lot more problems.

Either way, it takes me to the nearest wayshrine.

But really, unless you -just- used a wayshrine previously, it's at most 154 (is that right) gold. If you harass the GMs about that, you are wasting time they could spend on real issues.

The game should not allow you to move faster than the textures will load. Furthermore, none of that explains the weird teleportation effects.

I wayshrine out and keep playing.

That's after jumping around like a crack fiend to see if I can get unstuck for 5 mins though.

The few times it has happened to me, I port out (only option that works) curse the game for about 5 minutes, then totally forget about it

This, but convert it into EUROS like they charge NZ for our subs.

Don't be so tight, just pay up. AND... it'll teach you not to go poking around like some adventurer !

We could all learn to explore a little less. You never know when you'll stumble upon two or more naked players engaging in some serious ERP.

I'll let you know once it happens.
