I can understand not banning accounts but it seems odd you are allowing some players to benefit from exploiting this while most have had to pay to play a class added to the game.

So someone who plays Necro for a few hours and then decides to purchase Elsewyr shouldn't have access to the necro they created? Their character has to be deleted?
You know, there are other options, like just locking the character so it becomes unselectable. Then they can purchase Elsewyr and play it again.
We like our extremism here. Punish everyone, maximum penalty, make them pay! ... Unless it's you (general context), of course. Then it's unjustified, etc, etc.
Oh, fixing this is going to be ugly. If they delete necromancer characters that were created by people who don't own Elsweyr then those people are going to be pissed. If they don't delete necromancer characters that were created by people who don't own Elsweyr then people who bought Elsweyr primarily for the necromancer class are going to be pissed.

Do you feel bad because you had to pay for something and some people got it for free? Cry me a river pls
Well float me out of Craglorn because, yes.
It does feel bad..because we paid money for something someone else got for free; so soon after paying, which is not precedent.
That doesn't make us bad or selfish people. It just feels bad, man. I don't want to take away from anyone, but it would feel better if we were compensated in some minor way. Even if just to acknowledge "Oops! Our bad." Here, have X Crowns or X gold, or even a few Twitch-style basic crown crates like dropped in our accounts today.
Not everyone will be happy, but at least there is some acknowledgement that some of the most engaged players might feel a little miffed, and something is done as a sort of "peace offering".

Now they've made a mistake on necro and fixed it without taking the necro away. So what?!! It doesn't affect me or my game.
Take it from someone who is old...........life is too short for all this nonsense over a game!

On the topic of deleting unauthorized necromancers- (if deleting) Will the inventory on those necros also get deleted?
For that matter, Crown Store purchases?
I mean, players ought to know better than to expect to keep their necromancer if they didnt pay for Elsweyr.

They can fix something quickly when it is easy to fix.
Why are glitches that help us 99% of the easy fixes while the ones that annoy us take forever?
Well, for example only, enabling the Necromancer class for everyone might be a configuration "checkbox" on the server. They can fix it just by going into the server and "turning it off".
On the other hand, stuck in combat is probably not a "keep player in combat until tomorrow" checkbox, so it takes a little longer to fix.
Sad on how some people are like "I had to buy it, so they need to buy it and not get it for free!"

well except some people have no clue about what they are doing, im seriously not saying this as an excuse but some people are not as elite or uber gamers as others; they could easily make a character and choose necromancer not having the faintest idea that this class shouldnt have been available to them.

You complaining about a free Necro, then you shouldn't be using free wifi because others need to use it. I am sure lots of these people have downloaded illegally as well.
I guess we can say, For anyone who has not used anything for free while others have to pay for it, cast the first stone.

The logic falls flat as I am pretty sure most of us do not use mooch wifi. Yes, we use wifi provided at businesses we frequent but that really is not free as it's cost is covered by the revenue the generate from my business. It is like saying I am getting free AC or heat while in those businesses which would be a rather silly argument. So I am actually paying for that wifi I am using in my hotel room right now even though I have not incurred a separate charge for it.
I seriously doubt we have many people in here that go up to a business just to use their wifi and do not do any business with them. I would expect we all have internet we pay for, or someone in our household pays for and are not moochers as you suggest.
It would seem we are all free to profess our opinion on the matter.

You think the BBB would take that complaint seriously? There is nothing that ZOS is doing in this incident that is being done in bad faith. Deleting the characters of people who created them in good faith would be far more reasonable grounds for a complaint than them taking the hit on freebies due to exploits.
Where are you that you had to spend $70 to get access to Necro? It didn't cost $70 just to get necro in the US and I doubt it cost that in Canada. I have no idea about Mexico, but the BBB only covers NA afaik If you spent $70, it was for added stuff that people didn't get during the bug. The chapter cost $40, though there were plenty of discounts available on preorder.
Regardless of price, they still exploited, and no they should not be able to get off Scott free
I’ve never understood how ZOS DEIGNED to punish anyone for bugs the leave unfixed in the game for however it remains in the game.
Punish the coders. Punish the tech team assigned to bug fixes. Punish the in house testers who missed the bugs. Hold your team to a higher standard.
Yet, to punish someone doing something the game allows them to do?...when you won’t fix bugs for years on end...smacks of mediocrity to me.
Quit looking for freebies and its not punishing anyone just lock the chars behind the dam paywall like they were supposed to be....
