Just to make it clear, and please correct me if I'm wrong: your feedback is that you didn't enjoy the change we made, even though it was a bug we fixed instead of a nerf to the feature. "Some form of recompense" would be your request or suggestion, but not a feedback.
I'm really sorry this change upset and frustrated you and other players as well, however, it was necessary to balance the game.
Please read our 7.2 of our
Terms and Conditions (article 7 scope of our content)
"7.2 All the Games, Services, Premium Services, items or currencies we offer are reworked and updated at our discretion to ensure that they remain attractive for the largest possible circle of users. To make sure that all users can take part in the Game, it is essential that all users use the same version of the Game, Services, Premium Services, items or currency. For this reason, you may use the relevant Game, Service, Premium Service, item or the currency only in the most recent version."
This change was made for everyone simultaneously, and not for one user at the expense of the other. We also made it due to a technical issue with our core design, and to ensure that our game is balanced in the way we have planned over the long-term.
This is the final decision, and unfortunately, at this point we're not considering any kind of compensation or reimbursement of any sorts for this matter and while we cannot directly take any action on it, we will be happy to forward your feedback to the relevant teams.
