    Forget it. Frankie is here and reads all forums, but he doesn't answer. Especially on situations like this.

    You be sure on 100%, that frankie is here. Especially after this big update. I realized it many times in past, when he responded on total BS and not necessary to respond in many threads. He is here and reading, but doesn't answer.

    It's noon there, on a WEd.... pretty sure they're on the clock and reading this, and not giving a ****. Either that or waiting to see if this blows into a 500 page thread like the SP **** did.

    I wonder how many, like myself farm TT and then spend it all on tokens ?
    Tokens then cover things such as -Subs, Hypers (I need a set a day to grind normal map mobs), Crab meat, MP food, and whatever garnets I make up for my lower toons, add to this the many other items people make from them !
    point is at some point, a player pays out Real $ to buy the packs those tokens come from.

    best PW use the safety catch before they shoot themselfs in the other foot )

    Well...... lemme 'splain it to ya.......

    From the company's point of view, fairy boxes were supposed to limit the amount of free refining happening, and have ended up doing the opposite. More mirages in game means more refines without orbs, which PW sees as less sales (because of a failure of strategic thinking).

    A better solution would have been to raise the npc buy price for mirages. This would result in less mirages being used to refine without cash items. It would also raise the demand for gold, as the free/cheap players have more coin to spend. There are 2 reasons in game for high gold prices, one is desirable and the other is not, either demand is high due to a surplus of coin, or supply is low due to a lack of motivation to charge zen. By making the game more fun (and seem more profitable) for free/cheap players, you raise the in-game population, creating more incentive to charge zen for cash players (really, why should I buy r9 to fight the same 10-20 people every day?).

    Not that they would do something so sensible, they prefer chopping of their nose to cure a cold.

    Agreed, many players will unlike PWI'S FB if they don't put it back, plus the Zen buyers will sell less gold to players since they took out the fairy boxes. PW is only LOSING MONEY from TAKING AWAY THE FAIRY BOXES.

    Lol i just said somthing in guild thought i should put on here.

    PWI basically just said "If you want anything that costs more then you can grind off mobs (which isnt' much since we nerfed that anyway) before you're 100 and can even make any decent coin, whip out your credit card and start charging" by taking out the boxes.

    Slap us in the face more PW... apparently we like it... NOT

    Only heard of these so called "fairy boxes"... never actually gotten one myself. So don't really care.
    1. If I kill you; do something about it yourself, don't go complaining to my wife.
    2. If you have less kill counts then me, don't expect me to take pk advice from you.
    3. If you are hiding behind an alt, don't expect me to acknowledge your existence.

    Never cared bout TT, hate that place a lot but it was a decent income for farmers, pwi successfully removed a nice way to refine your gears cheap or to sell them for profit, I wonder if mirage prices will go up dramatically.

    Ya i woulda done nothing but TT in that month long 2X too if i hadn't thought about it till the end.... >.< lucky u Known.... rest of us aren't so much. I dot' see myself getting my sin nirv daggers anymore... not plopping 200 bucks or w/e into a game for one thing (maybe when i get 100 and can farm nirv we'll see how long it'd take but still..... this is a slap in our faces bigger then SP...). I JUST got a alt to 70 so it'd take 6 months to open boxes from another month long 2X instead of a year..... and they take em out lol I mean seriously it takes that long to open them.... how the hell does that make sucha big dent in their pockets they have to remove them? I'd love to see the b.s. explanation for this one.

    And before u tell me to merchant or something.... um nope. Not leaving a pc on 24/7 and trying to worm my way into a niche on something with 50 other catshops sellin the same thing.....

    Sometimes i'm lucky & find things ridiculously underpriced on the AH... but meh.
