    I love when stuff like this happens and suddenly everyone is an economist b:chuckle

    I am not an economist, but I stayed at the Holiday Inn last night and I switched my insurance to Geico.

    You people are talking like idiots. You CHOOSE TO PLAY THIS GAME. Stop complaining. You want the gold prices FIXED? Stop BUYING it.

    And NEWBIE mat prices are upped because of the TIDEBORN not outrageous gold prices, although due to gold prices they aren't capped like they used to be.

    You have no right to demand refunds. You spent it willingly and didn't realize that eventually, by buying the product like the addiction it seems to be, the seller would want more money. Demand a refund? TOO BAD. Buy something that's actually WORTH something, invest it.

    I, for one, don't appreciate the heightened gold prices, but gold prices don't really matter. The methods for making money are still the same. Hell, the anni packs make some people MORE money. *is unlucky in opening packs but appreciates the tokens immensely* You want mats? Go TT. Go farm them. The current prices are what people who spend the time farming deserve. And if you want to spend money on the game, GO AHEAD. Reach game-end faster and get bored, then quit and give me your stuff. b:pleased
    Go spend money, open a couple packs, sell me some tokens, so I can get cheap MP foods and Citrine shards, and them sell them for a profit later. b:laugh

    People buying gold at those sky high prices are idiots.

    If buyers all band together and set gold at a low buying price, gold sellers (people who are too lazy to grind or farm mats for their coins) will no choice but to sell gold at low price.

    Gold sellers need the coins, gold buyer have the coins... DO THE FREAKING MATH!!!

    SO STOP COMPLAINING THAT GOLD IS TOO EXPENSIVE!!!!

    that is all...b:bye

    Acutally gold is stable, the auction prices aren't.
    Buyers band together? Funny...but wake up.
    And I buy gold cuz I don't go to school anymore, I work, I'm stressed at the end of the day and IF I then decide to play the game, I want to relax. Which grinding won't do...
    I'm not a pure oracle user, I detest that. But I use oracles, and not afraid to admit it b:victory

    I don't know, if the anni. packs are enough to make like... alot of players quit PWI then maybe they would give up on the idea until the next anni. Of course we all know thats not going to happen, so complaining about the anni. packs is basicly pointless. We just have to deal with it and move on b:cute

    Im happy they are bringing back tokens.... not packs really. At level 99 I cant even find the barb buff book, tokens gives me a way to get that. Plus any 99+ knows how hard it is to get the armor b:angry

    Tokens let you get chips, and chips let you get the gold mats....... By the way I wont buy 1 pack, I will let other suckers do it, then buy and sell tokens b:chuckle

    There are oracle's in the boutique. All people would have to do is buy them and spend 3-4 days to get to level 80.

    I have a wonderful idea. They can quit spending oracles and offer lvl 90 and 100 characters for sale in the boutique for 500 gold. Its much easier than standing in line for oracles anyways. No, seriously. This would really work for the people who like the easy way out!

    I got lost.. I did not read it all too much **** there. But some of us have invested a year of our time playing. Some of us have invested real life money. Some of us have invested the extra 10lbs we gained from sitting here eating a midnight snack waiting for maintenance to finish.

    We earned the right to complain, thats what a forum is for incase you didn't know that. Its here so that the community may talk and express its concerns and excitement about the game. And I can't quite figure out why you say WE'RE talking like idiots. You are in the same thread on the same forum.

    mmmhmmm. That's why I said switch the names... although i still don't get why bring them back when the rest of the packs offer just about the same things~!

    And I like the coal idea. Kudos!

    I don't think they will do that, becuz that will affect other boutiqe items, and would probably be a loss for them in the long run. No matter what price u can ask for Warsoul, it's still not going to be the same as what u need to pay for making them.

    So don't worry 'bout that, won't happen.

    Well they do offer them for 500 gold on the private server I used to play xD

    but then again.. on that server it was 40k gold ALL the time and gold replenished itself for us :P

    But that was the past T.T

    If there was ever a good place to admit playing a private server, it's in a 30+ page QQ thread that will never be read b:chuckle

    b:cry Ani packs are boring, DONT bring them back please!

    b:cry *agrees*

    And to those people griping about my griping and telling ME to get a life... lmfao.

    I DO want a refund. I willingly spent my money but the parameters changed. It's like paying for a service, right? Well.. not really.

    It's like putting money into a charity because the charity means something to you, but then you realize the charity was **** you and lying about what they were gonna do with their money. This SEEMED like a good thing to support with my spare change fund, but it LIED TO ME.

    It told me it would feed hungry afghani children but it only fed its own fat face.

    I mean.. I thought it was more stable when I -started- putting nickles and dimes in... but then when it added up to hundreds and got all **** I realized it wasn't the organization it looked like it was going to be when it was young. Therefore, no more money for you, fatty.

    Go on a damn diet.

    I like the money sinks idea actually. It's true there is a lot of benefit with the anni packs but the inflation is outta hand. More money sinks might level out the playing field.

    Maybe Archosaur should have "Anni pack buyer eating monsters" that only roam arch and pilfer stuff from your inv if it contains and anni pack and gives it to people who don't/never have. b:laugh
