Aww! Rawrgh. :< It does kinda stink with that whole situation. Maybe something better would have been putting a couple different choices of fashion sets to choose from rather than just the two (depending on the gender, just one.)

What they should have done is make the fashion a fixed color, so that everyone who got it, got it like it was in the SS in the announcment, with the ability to dye it if you choose. 0


What was shown in the announcment actually looked decent, what I got was this:

Heh.. about that. Well. As for the moment, I have work soon, so I wouldn't want to get caught up in anything. :P Other than that, I dunno. I just feel overwhelmed by my full quest list and without having an urge to actually do any of them. Lol. I feel like fail when I log on. XD

Thats what i thought about too, like even if it came in a crappy color, like slime green, at least make the whole outfit that color, not slime green top, orange pants, brown shoes and yellow gloves or w/ever.

edit: @Shivalia, i rarely do quests anymore, i wish i was 89 already XD then id just have fun with the game instead of speeding through it.

Omg I'm sorry but I really did lol when I saw it. b:chuckle You're right. They should have done something better with the situation, at least. Or made them trade able, though that would ruin the exclusivity of it.. Not that the mounts aren't much less 'exclusive' now, too. Nothing much is anymore, so why bother trying to make a point of it for sake of giving up what could be good with something.

Ultimately it comes do to this:

1. There are far, far more players eligible for the anniversary mount this year than there were last year, simply due to more players on our servers over the past year. Some of them would request transfers.

2. Everyone who got a mount last year got a second one this year (something that we didn't have to do, since there was already a 2-year reward in place), and they most likely got it on the same character. They would need a transfer.

3. Add to this the fact that due to the overwhelmed Anni Rewards page, many players got multiple mounts this year. They would all be requesting transfers.

All of this adds up to weeks and/or months of mount transferring work for the Customer Service team when they need to be dealing with far more important issues like **** accounts, player harassment, player scam reports, bank password resets, etc..

I realize that some of you are disappointed with our decision in this matter, but I hope that this post helps to show our logic in making it.

No offense, but maybe you guys should have thought about this before doing things the same way you did last year? There is no way you didn't see these problems coming. The fact that you guys knew it would be a problem and refused to change your methods pretty much shows how greedy you really are. Don't get me wrong, I have no problem with game companies trying to make money through cash shops, but this feels like a total slap in the face to the people you're trying to show appreciation for.

I'm not usually in favor of what I'm about to propose, but maybe a rollback would be a good idea since it's been less than 24 hours since the problems started.

I have FOUR blessings on my assassin and a mount that won't see the light of day because I spent THIRTY FIVE DOLLARS on a pair of WINGS for her. Other people also have several blessings and/or mounts! Let's assume people with multiple mounts have already purchased the stone, now several of their characters have free mounts! Why? Because there was a serious problem with your system! Yeah that's fair...

I'm not nearly as concerned about the people with multiple mounts as I am the fact you guys are basically telling us to go suck a fat one or pay $15. If you knew support couldn't handle it, you should have offered these gifts like you did Jones' Blessing. That method works awesome. I log in, I choose where I want my item(s) to go... all is well. As I said in another thread, people would need to pay for the stone if they want it moved after they made their decision.

I'm totally grateful for the gift I received, I just want to be able to USE it instead of see it rot.

b:angry

Oh and just so you know, I did have plans to buy the stone eventually... well, assuming you had done the right thing and moved my mount ONE time as I requested. Happy Anniversary! No $15 for you!

I can understand that many people are pissing off. But take it as it is, this company is a shadow from itself, and you can only hope that in Forsaken World they will bring some quality back again, if not, who cares it's just a video game, find some other f2p or p2p mmorpg, gives tons of them. Im supricing that this topic isn't closed yet, im sure it's against some (pwi) rules. Democracy have get here so much down as they game, rather watch out lol.

Ok, wait. The method they use for Jones? Are you freaking serious? So you feel you got shafted and your solution is to **** a different set of players? Now who's being selfish and greedy here? I freaking hate Facebook, this new blessing evens things out for those of us who won't log in there to get the +30 Att lvl. But because YOU feel wronged, your solution is that others should loose what they have worked for in the last 24 hours and, on top of that, deprive those of us who won't sign in Facebook of our mounts. Are you out of your mind? b:irritated

Someone is bound to feel wronged whatever they do, but that you so callously propose a solution that benefits YOU and aggravates others is a far worse thing that whatever you may feel the GMs did to you...

Foxy_Fiona - Heavens Tear

Can you read? I said nothing about Facebook. I simply mean log onto the Perfect World website and select a freaking server and character to send you gifts to... you know, kinda what we do with that blessing but minus the Facebook step.

I repeat, this has nothing to do with Facebook... only the step where you select where you want your gift sent.

They required us to log in to get the message that our stuff was being sent. One more page that asked us which server and character we wanted the gift sent to wouldn't have hurt. They have the ability to do exactly that but decided not to.

Good points.



By why not do it like the jones blessing, simply choose which server/character to send it to?

This is for both of you:

What's really disappointing are idiots who are just too stupid and greedy to realize that they in fact, got something for free that PWI would normally charge $50 for and instead complain how they can't use it on their main for some stupid reason or another because they're too cheap to spend the in-game coin or $15 so they can use it elsewhere IF they wish.

Like I've said before. NPC the mount and shut up already.

Why didn't they just made the mounts (and maybe fashion, too) tradeable? I mean they're not that special anymore and ya'd have less complainin'/dissapointment goin' on here...and its probably less work than transferin' oO
(With "they" I mean whoever is responsible for makin' 'em tradeable/untradeable)


Why do I have the feelin' we'll get a "15%-off-Account-stash"-sale soon... -.-

This year we sent out mounts to the highest level character on each server, as opposed to last year when it just went to the highest level character on one server. Hopefully vets who play on multiple servers were happy with this choice.

LIAR it went to all servers last year too.

yeah i know that was mean frankie but i couldnt resist. also the fashion is not account stashable.

Well, obviously i wouldn't be familiar with how Jones works if i don't use it would i? And i see you've obviously mentioned nothing about your proposed rollback... Let's get a couple of things straight; Yea, it sucks for you that you can't use the mount on whatever char you main, doesn't mean you have to make it everyone's problem. If you're going to come up with "solutions" try to think of something that won't impact others. I'm sure there's plenty of people than rather than qq about this started working towards an account stash just today, and they don't deserve their hard work gone to waste because your idea of a fair solution doesn't contemplate others may have taken matters into their own hands.

Also, it's just a mount. God forbid PW ever thinks of giving us something that actually gives us a permanent gameplay advantage because then all the nerdraging may actually bring the servers down. If you don't already have a mount chances are you don't need it. If saving for an account stash seems too much, then there are other rides going for around a mil. The mount is nice but not to the extent that you should see your main being deprived of it as a "slap in the face". It's not PW's fault you have decided to waste their resources in storing a char you hardly ever use... If you think it's the "principle" of the thing you should remember this is a gesture on their part, not something you're entitled to.

You're just upset that you didn't get your way in a small, trivial matter. This is an MMO, the idea of character progression is based on your being able to obtain any ig advantage trough either gameplay or (this being an f2p RMT model) the cash shop. If you're unwilling to resort to either then you really have no basis to complain, do you? You were treated no different than anybody else. There's people who were probably thinking of changing servers or playing in more than one that are probably upset they didn't create chars on those sooner. There are players who may have invested a large part of their ig resources on acquiring a mount in the last couple of months who may now be regretting their previous decission. Oh, but you feel entitled, is that it? You had already pictured your main riding the mount, and didn't stop to think there was a chance there was more to it than simply having registered an account before September of last year.

There are advantages to higher levels, you must have known there would be oportunities you might miss when you decided to start over on a new char. And i know what i'm talking about, this is my second main. Suck it up, MMOs are challenging games and if this is enough to get you upset then i really doubt there would have been much of a future for you playing this game anyway...

Was it not possible to use the same technology that's on the Jones Blessing page? I can choose both a server and a character for that gift. Why not for this one?

BTW, for all the people who are about to tell me to stop QQ-ing, stop looking a gift horse in the mouth (pun intended), NPC the mount, etc. I got my mount on the character I wanted it on, and if I hadn't I have an Account Stash. That isn't the problem.

When getting use out of their "gift" requires you to pay real money, it becomes a scam.

Free stuff is great, but if you can't use it, then what's the point?

Thank you very much.

To PWE: It obviously wasn't a gift. 50% + Of the population on PW would already have a mount on their high levels, and would want one for their low level. And I know about 75% Doesn't even play on their highest level most of the time.
