Maybe it’s time to let players trade crowns and gold in a window system similar to item trading. You know so there can actually be a perfectly safe way to make the exchange and then the receiving player can buy whatever they want with the crowns.
ZOS should definitely put a system of exchanging gold for Crowns in the game.
Bankers could be used for this purpose.
1,000,000 gold for 500 Crowns for example.
Brilliant.So if we learn that
1. This was just terrible communication from customer support, who basically said the wrong thing
2. Gold for crowns is not in fact a violation of ToS
3. The CS ticket system will not be used to process any crate gifting when the expectation of gold is involved
Then how do they determine who is worthy to receive a gift? Is it:
1. Immediate chat history involving gold exchange
2. Past history of receiving gifted crowns and mailing large sums of gold with the seller?
3. Some other pattern?
How many human resource hours are they putting into "vetting" these crate gifting requests? How many other customer support issues are being overwhelmed by their attempt to not let players send gold in return?
What if I had intended on sending gold, but now want to just receive gifted crowns without gold. Am I ineligible because I was following the rules in the past? How long am I ineligible for?
Or, maybe they mean what they say and this is another step toward a new normal
ZOS should definitely put a system of exchanging gold for Crowns in the game.

1,000,000 gold for 100 Crowns for example.

i think i mentioned in the other thread as soon as i saw the steps you had to go through that this kind of thing was going to happen
- minimum expected turnaround time was 48 hours
- going through customer service is pretty much never fun, no matter what it the problem is

However if you buy crown crates from someone else for in game gold its no longer gambling with real money but with an in game only currency and if you are in Belgium I assume you can not buy them for crowns.Panthermic wrote: »Necrotech_Master wrote: »i still think the funniest part of this whole thing is that this massive convoluted process to gift crates is ONLY for crown crates, other items can still be normally gifted in game without any hassle lol

Except for that Crown Crates touch laws--as it involves gambling--and are banned in some countries--like in Belgium for example--, while every other item in CS is a direct purchase, and that is not banned in any country.
The solution for all this madness is quite simple:
I'm posting this here because many players may not be aware of what is going on in the new gifting crown crate system.

Fast forward to the new system of gifting crates. Players have been going through the official process to gift crates by opening customer support tickets as described here. https://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/en/discussion/638375/crown-crate-gifting-temporary-solution-process/p1
Players are receiving some form of response like the following...

Oh this brings back good memories of that game. Sadly, not enough to make me want to play it again.
No stealing,
No housing,
No antiquities,
No chests around when exploring,
No houses or any other such buildings to go in and explore/loot,
the list goes on and on and on....
How does this work? As how is the prices calculated?The solution for all this madness is quite simple:

almost that entire list is wrong. idk when you played but god the pve in gw2 is so much better and rewarding than eso. Not even close. And there is almost everything on that list in one way or another. Some things eso does better for sure, like housing but eso probably does housing better than any mmo, but it exists in gw2.

What's so special about crates that makes the process any different?
