Why do you keep doing this?... People who buy gold usualy dont have a choice how they buy gold I buy through wallie cards at my local store I understand you most likley have a cost included in me using this method but its the only method availble to me.

Gold does not have a value of where giving people something no matter what method they use is going to loose your company money

I find it disrespectfull and a middle finger to the face to all those people who are your customers that use other methods to pay to get NOTHING at all.

So whats the deal PWI why do you make bonus sales like this only available to suit you?

    On Topic: PWI is a business, the people who run it here in America are out to make money. They have taken things too far IMO but that's just my opinion and obviously doesn't carry weight with the 'powers that be'. They usually just find the most expedient method to make the greatest profit possible without weighing all consequences or repercussions.

    Off Topic but the reason for my post: Look, I know most people don't care about spelling and when you point it out you get labeled a nit-picky person. Or maybe some people are writing English here as a second language. I'm NOT busting your chops just to be a jerk, honestly.
    It's just that when I keep seeing the SAME freaking mistake being made I finally snap a little in my head and whomever is around at the time catches the brunt of my ire.

    Lose: This is the word you wanted in your post. You can lose money, car keys, fights, your life, etc.
    Loose: This is the word you put in your post. You can turn an animal loose or a **** can be loose or something along those lines.

    I know this means absolutely nothing to most people in the long run. But one word means one thing and the other means something completely different. And to be honest, I am seeing your mistake being made all over the damned place and nobody is correcting it anywhere.

    Please take this as it is intended. As constructive criticism, not a sleight or insult on you or your intellect.

    Did I learn anything from you picking out my mistake?...No Do I plan to improve my spelling to make people happy... No

    You can pick on my spelling if it makes you feel more intelligent. I never claimed to be good at spelling I will be the first to admit I am more of a vocal person than a put it down on paper person sure if you think it would help you I can use a spell checker to make sure I dont make this mistake again. But come on seriously is it that much of an issue?

    Just to make it clear I am English I am also over the age of education my lack of spelling is not down to ignorance it's down to habit and that word it's self was a typo I dont sit here really checking my posts like it was an essay it's a shame other people expect me to do so. I have no desire to improve it as it does not affect me in anyway just from time to time I need to deal with spelling hitlers that obviously take alot of pride in something they can do well.

    Picking on spelling doesn't make me feel more or less intelligent. In fact, pointing out spelling errors makes me self-conscious about making others feel inferior which is NOT what I am trying to do.

    It really isn't that big an issue in this one instance. You're absolutely correct on that point. But like I said before, it's not just you that is making this mistake, I see it all the time and nobody seems to care. Eventually I get around to pointing mistakes out once I've seen them too often and this was my breaking point.

    Time and the common interest in this game brought you and I to this forum.

    A sense that the economic factors in this game are flawed brought me to your post.

    An ever-increasingly common spelling mistake spurred me to post about said spelling mistake and the apparent lackadaisical attitude toward knowing which word is used in which context.

    You see, I'm not certain anymore how many people even realize that there ARE two different words, lose and loose.

    I am NOT trying to point at you and say anything derogatory.
    I AM trying to sit next to you (and others) and show you that I care whether you know which word to use when and the reason why to.

    If you already know this information please tell me to p!ss off and I will do so without hesitation.
    If you don't know the information then don't you think you should?

    And now I hope people just get back to the original topic of your post.
    Which was about deals available to some (but not ALL) players purchasing gold.

    I use prepaid cards as well.

    It only kind of bothers me that we don't get included.
    It would be nice if everything was fair to everyone, but it's not, that my friend is just how life goes.

    I use PWI Pre-Paid cards because **** credit card companies.

    You would think the PWI cards would at least be included in the bonus sale, since you know....they belong to PWI. <.<
    Some people risk to employ me

    Some people live to destroy me

    Either way they die

    In theory, if you wanted to take part in the zen thing, you could just get a prepaid credit card instead of prepaid PWI cards.

    Bleh, despite the fact that I use my credit card when I first do charge, I think the rest should be able to well, get the bonus. I don't see an obvious reason on why they shouldn't.

    I think the question is more so why the STOPPED giving the Pre-paid card users the bonus Zen. Some time ago, those cards where included , but then they removed them . . .
