So here's my conspiracy theory:

Since all companies operating in the US are subject to Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX), SE has to keep pretty detailed records of all their operations for the last 7 years (could be longer)

Given they have all this info if SE's attention is directed to any particular account they can do a detailed audit of all the technically illegal stuff that they've done (RMT, windower, exploits, etc.)

Maybe SE thought that your friend had started doing something against the TOS around 2007 and rolled him back to that time.

All of this is speculation of course... and a willingness to believe that Squieidox would rather rollback characters than outright ban them for some offenses. (That's CRAZY, I know)

you know whats funny, when you call any 24-hour customer service line and they reroute the call to India, then you get Ali Habib Muhammed Jihad with a really Indie-Texan accent going :"This is Joe, how may I assist you today?"

page 4? meh, guess the story changed slightly (altho the customer service still sucks), "friend" actaully lied about being hacked for a free way off hades (the moving him to fairy 2007 is true) and orginally i wasnt going to post this but pretty sick of him acting without thinking and keeping my mouth shut about it so here goes.

While lieing about this and knowing full well his intentions was going back to odin he failed to return my Merc Kris, Juggernaut, and Woodville axe when i had asked a day prio to all this for them back and him saying "1 more day im finishing skilling up" funny he decides to do this the day after so yes he tried to steal my items and ended up *** himself, me, and anyone he called a friend over, now is trying to sell the account and all his gear so in this case justice was kind of served.

this is from the Urban Dictionary...

Butthurt -
Getting your feelings hurt, being offended or getting all bent out of shape because of something petty or stupid.

*Succumbs to Kyri's cuteness technique.*

lol....
So, he lies about it...
You get all sympathetic and post here...
You find out he's a liar and SE did exactly what he wanted...
And you still think their customer service sucks...

Nice!

This is actually what I assume to be the reality in every single whine/complain/rant/drama thread lacking screenshots to disprove my assumption, and sometimes even when there are said screenshots.

This is particularly the case when the OP tries to dictate the terms of the discussion at the outset (e.g. "Don't troll me, but here's my *** story!")

this information come from him when he broke down crying knowing he had lost all his gear and such and trying to salvage a friendship and blame his other friend for "demanding" he come back to odin,

"wasnt this thread about shitty customer service?

*** trolls trying to derail this with their own personal butthurt."

i made this thread and like my other threads you seem to love to try to make something out of nothing, im not butthurt, slightly bothered i lost 5.7 mil but more bothered a so called "friend" did it, will i find it hard to sleep at night? no, but like i said i play this game to have fun i make these forum topics for discussion and hopefully the chance to help ppl and learn more about SE *** ups not fight with a troll who cant seem to read and acts like a 8 year old.

The way I see it SE doesn't care about the playerbase because SE doesn't care for POL.

My theory is POL was an experiment by SE gain some dominance in the online community. POL has a lot of uses that we overlook since we only bother w/ POL to get on FFXI. POL Had email addresses, chatrooms, and more than likely was going to be used for 3rd party software companies. (If I recall correctly EQ2 in Japan used POL).

However instead of blooming into the community/money maker SE wanted it pretty much rolled over and died. And instead of just pulling the plug on the experiment SE decided to leave POL as it is and never look back on it. And because of this the service has been total ***thanks to who ever is in charge of POL.

That's the way I view it since SE hasn't made anything else in the past 7 years to run on POL and said XIV will be standalone and not require POL to play.
