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.

Lately ive had alot of friends that have been hacked too and they had the same issue. lost gear, job, mission, merits... i dont understand why they cant just go a few months it has to be such a far back time. if that happened to me i would be so mad becuase i have just about all missions done, and in 2007 i was like a lvl 30 whm ^^

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 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!")

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.

Come on for Page 5 alrdy im bored.
Before i post this no replies about "this is pointless nothing will be done" "your e hurt over your friend" or any other pointless replies please because im making this to find out just how many ppl SE have fucked over, now for the story.
My friend Xenien (orginally from Fairy moved to Odin then to Hades) and has been playing 4 years, he recently got hacked and asked SE for a data recovery to which they did problem is... they rolled him back to 2007 when he was on fairy server, in doing this he lost a number of 75 jobs tons of gear, merits, missions, well you get it.
When he asked them to change it they told him they cant because he agreed to a roll back, fair enough yes he agreed but is SE really that fucking stupid they think someone would want there account rolled back so far without even asking? he was told they can only roll it backwards not forwards, in saying that why would they roll it so far back? why not 2 weeks? 1 month? 2 months? so if they get it wrong he has another chance.. but 2 YEARS? if im being biast feel free to point it out but to me that is fucking stupid.
Does SE really believe some of the shit they do is acceptable for a company of there size? or fail so hard at customer service they believe this is normal? when he thanked the manager for throwing away 3 years of hard work he replied "No, you did, you agreed to this." so not only did they fuck him over after he had been hacked they talk to ppl like that... i know when 14 comes out alot of ppl are going to quit for it and of course some will stay but i cant help but feel with stories like this the ppl who do stay are going to get nothing for help, nothing for updates, nothing for service, and just dirt thrown on them for paying SE monthly while they continue to act like retards with FF14.
