    No, im sure the idea of giving everyone multiple mounts, and not putting the account stash stone on sale along with storage, was planned out perfectly. That's a good way to make money. Everyone gets, 5+ new mounts and other stuff, half the server doesn't have account stash stones or storage cuz they making new accounts and toons, but needs them. So, don't put them on sale yet so that people pay full price, then next week put them on sale. This is why they allow dual clienting, power leveling, and r9 is always on sale. The more toons you make, your going to need storage on each toon, account stashing and so on. Giving everyone multiple mounts all these years on anniversary is not a mistake, it's planned. Only this year, they not only gave you the code for all the mounts, but you also got the single mount that you get for the amount of years you've been here.

    It's funny too. I was talking to my girl and I told her that I would bet that account stash stones and storage will be the next sale.

    When you go to the link, the code gives your toon that you choose ALL the mounts, including the Jade Unicorn and all the other goodies(charms, tele stones etc.). Doesn't matter how old the account is. I could be made today, and if you use that code for that toon, it will get all mounts. But like I said, it's purposly done so that you HAVE to get an account stash stone if you have one, and storage if your running low. This ploy happens every year, and right afterwards, they have a storage sale. I'm guessing the plan is, have people buy storage n stash at full price for a week or so, knowing people will need it, then put the sale on. It's a good idea.

    Another plan of theirs is, if they give you 5 mounts, and you only have 3 toons, you're more than likely going to make 2 more toons for those mounts. Eventually you'll play on them, which means more money. Good plan. Same with the dreamchaser packs. Advertise on FB, make 2 new toons, send each toon a dreamchaser pack, get free mounts for the toons. It's incentive to have you make more toons and a reason to play on them. b:victory

    Nobody forces you to buy it right now. If you really need all these mounts, keep them on 1 char for a while and wait for sale. I just don't understand the emergency =)

    I totally agree. But of the thousands and thousands of players, how many do you think are impatient? How many are using daddy's credit card? How many do you think want it RIGHT NOW? How many do you think feel they have to hurry and get those mounts on those toons, with the feeling they might lose it if they don't hurry? How many do you think feel that a sale is not going to happen for a while, and feel they might as well buy it? It's all about a pressuring the player into buying items that can be purchased by just waiting a week or so and having a little patients. Some players can't handle the pressure.
