Two things:

1)
Has anyone else noticed that they've completely borked how gmail accounts work?

"If you are a gmail user that registered an account on PWE after 1/27/2011, please input your email address without any periods in the first half. For example, you should enter abe.lincoln@gmail.com as abelincoln@gmail.com"

They actually have my account listed without any of the periods, so for the ticket I've submitted I'm pretty sure it's going to the wrong email addy instead of what my actual email is. I've tried changing the email but it says an account exists (but password recovery says it doesn't), but it does b/c I have an account!

Complete mind fuck

2)
In my attempt to fix problem 1 I went to submit a ticket here: http://www.perfectworld.com/
Brings me to a browser redirect loop:

jcmV0X2tleQ!! has resulted in too many redirects. Clearing your cookies for this site or allowing third-party cookies may fix the problem. If not, it is possibly a server configuration issue and not a problem with your computer.

So I google it and find that they have an email address that I can submit tickets to, which I have just done. I also find a hard url: https://support.perfectworld.com/app/answers/list/c/47

When I arrive I click on the "Ticket History" tab, which brings to another failed redirect loop.


Eh, it's a new game so I assume they are still working out website bugs. Just thought I'd give a sit-rep on some issues I've found.

This.

Gmail itself removed the punctuation. 

blah.blah@gmail.com is the same as blahblah@gmail.com to the gmail system.

You should blame your parents the most. You're in Alaska FFS.

Naw, she hops on a plane for him.

Regardless, my first point still feels slightly valid in that my trouble ticket told me they responded via email, yet no email from them was in my inbox. I don't really get spam so I would have noticed it.

Second point is still a valid observation.

Alaska is the best fucking state out there. I approve of your jealousy.

Hmm..  That's good information there, thanks.

haha welllllll I didn't know that the periods didn't matter, I thought I hadn't. the dot could have been anywhere.

I can't modify my posts.

Either way I would hope that the majority of people on this particular forum would contain their fun and insane antics to the forum rather migrating them into other people's lives

The majority aren't like that at least. I'm tao enough and have enough emails to be meh about it. I've had this one the longest and I'd like to keep it but if some asshat decides to sign me up for shit then I'll just move on to another one.

Its alright people.  I had this same issue when I left DDO for GW2.  You assume the worse, cause you are used to it.  Now take a deep breath, and just enjoy a new game
