It is reasonable to conclude without a great deal of programming knowledge that after the issues were reported by some and the cause determined a fix correct all those impacted without them needing to come forward.
not true.
i am maintaining the wiki page of potential prismatic owners:
http://galaxylegion.com/wiki/index.php?title=Omnispectral_Lens#Known_Ownersthere are quite a few that have gone inactive .. a few others that have not yet reached the rank required. so applying a global 'fix' even for players that are not currently active makes no sense, even if coding was easy, which i doubt.
so going just by the corruption medal, or by corruption missions completed won't necessarily be a correct query. someone might have just saved a

Schematics in cargo for some reason, and maybe Dan had planned for future corruption market artis that would cause the database to lock up if you used a schematic beyond what is currently available - Will of the Eye can still be purchased even after you have 3 extra visions ...
the second hand reference was that the items were considered effects, so if they had expired, there's no way to add them back globally unless they are no longer effects - which i doubt Dan did. i suspect he just doubled or tripled the expiry time on the effects, so those of us who hadn't reached the expiry time won't see any issue.
anyone who hasn't noticed the issue will feel zero gratitude, whereas someone who sends in a support ticket and gets a personal fix saves Dan a ton of effort, and Dan knows that the person he is helping is still an active player.
