It has been 11 days since the Devs and the "patch" stole over a million credits from my character when they screwed up the harvester hopper sizes. It has been 10 days since they said they would address the problem and 9 days since the proposed solution was to take effect.

I'm beginning to become concerned that their promises mean nothing and this istuation will never be resolved - even though they acknowledged it and promised a fix.

You have crippled my character's ability to grow and robbed me over over a month's worth of investment. Please, please, please resolve the situation as promised!

i just noticed today that my solar gen has a hopper size of a whopping 1752.... what happened??

I did a post a bit back on this that I was rather proud of, so I'll repost here:

And now a reading from the book of SOE, Chapter 10 verse 8 (works best if you imagine the voice of the Book of Armaments reader from Monty Python's Holy Grail):

8. And lo, a great patch swept through the land. And in it's wake all harvesters that were deed became as soft, foamy rubber. Yet those harvesters which were diligent in extracting resources for their masters were spared, and they were not nerfed.

9. But the changed deeds were needed, and soon placed to gather metals, ore, gas, chemicals and the flowers of the field. And after they were placed, their owners sent up a great wailing for they were slow and could not hold much.

10. And the gods heard the wailing, and the people of the land heard the mighty voices say "whoops, that wasn't supposed to happen, our bad".

11. And a fix that was hot was sent along the path of the great patch, again affecting all harvesters that were deed. And those harvesters which were extracting were again spared the change. But some of those harvesters were not then deed that had been deed during the great patch, and they were still slow and could not hold much. But all deeds brought forth after the fix that was hot now benefited from the toil and work of the wise Architects, being faster and holding more than their forebears, so there was some rejoicing (yay!).

12. But here and there, forgotten by the gods on high, were the harvesters whom the big patch changed, but had beenleft unchangedby the fix that was hot. And when the people asked "What shall be done about these nerfed harvesters" the silence from the gods was deafening.

Short answer: the big patch changed all deeded harvesters to the low extraction rate and small hoppers. The fix a few days later changed all deeded harvesters back. Any harvesters that were deeded during the big patch but placed during the hotfix are stuck with the bad stats. Whether they're going to be changed at any point is unknown, but the odds get worse each day. I've heard some people were able to get their harvester deeds replaced by CSRs, you might try opening a service ticket.

I spent alot of time harvesting power so I could leave my harvestors running for a longer amount of time and vuola, now I have to run to them MORE because the hopper size fills up after a day....

Forever Grinding, Forever Sinking Time!!!
