Hello everyone. So Toxbot has apparently bugged out, and purged the entire server.

no need to panic, the server will be remade in minutes 🙂

the bot has been banned guys, don't worry because we're working on it

The bot freaked out when people were actually chatting haha

Wait, do the admins have to manually remake the entire server?!

@SKGriffon what's the passcode?

What are we supposed to do here? Share memes or what?

We apologize for this cruel action from a bot's owner. We are trying to fix all things that have been deleted.

@Eagleflies14 yeah the bot only purged channels it seems

@Kyay and very heavy with the story, damn. With such a colorful world, I wasn't expecting such a heavy story

Blizzia

I mean sure he'll save like

Blizzia

3 euro

Blizzia

or so

Blizzia

before conversion

Blizzia

and bank fees

Blizzia

but honestly

Blizzia

safest and easiest to just fork over those 3 euro more

Blizzia

and get it on the eu shop

Blizzia

(aka as eu citizen he has no right to support or any help on any title not bought on eu eshop or within eu)

Belaptir

Actually, is even cheaper to buy in South Africa eshop because you only need to switch country without buying from shady pages a prepaid card and, given than South Africa is considered part of Nintendo Europe, you're still supporting games on Europe to the eyes of Nintendo

Blizzia

Nope, been through that loop with a friend. They will not help.

Blizzia

It's pretty much "I can see you're located here, and the game is purchased from another eshop than yours. Bye."

Belaptir

Well, that's not enterely true. But even if it was, in case you need support from a game (something I never needed till now and that doesn't even think I'll need), you just need to talk to the support of the country where you bought it. What I was saying tho, is that, given that you are buying a game from a country that is considered part of Europe, you are supporting Nintendo Europe. Not that you will receive support from the country you are located.

And even in a case like that, I live in Italy, but my family resides in Spain so I often travel there, which would mean it can happen I buy a game in Italy but am in Spain when I need support. Of course, in case I do, I'll refer to the Italian support. But that is something that will happen with any other support in the world

Blizzia

Basically, this is how it works:
If your account uses the UK eShop for example, and you're mainly using that, but switch to another eshop that requires switching the region of your account to another country in order to access it, you will not receive any kind of support for said purchase. Nintendo UK support can't help you because it's not a UK purchase. Nintendo South Africa (sike), had they had their own legit support jurisdiction, would not be able to support you on your purchase either, as you were not using your own regions eShop for the purchase.

Belaptir

Wrong

Blizzia

Nope. Literally have first hand experience.

Blizzia

This is how it goes.

Belaptir

What if I travel legally to that country and huh something while I'm there?
