Action against XP Scroll Scam

I care because my guildies and I created those virus ridden pedophile loving myspace accounts with the hope that grinding would feel good for a week and make the quest barren lvls easier to deal with. But after seeing the amount of friends drop more than once during the one month time limit I began to wonder.

If they jump over six thousand with in a day i will cry foul. Being that they control the accepts and could of just held back. I don't really believe that to be the case but it is food for thought.
On the other hand I love the game and will play just as much regardless of the extra xp.

Couldn't help but notice that the poll had 2 "It was a scam" options, effectively making this poll a scam because you are stacking the odds towards one particular viewpoint. Nice try though. b:chuckle

Also, gotta remember, on MySpace unless your set private, you get pounded by Porno bots trying to get you to come to their "page" which has links to their "naked photos" etc. I had a MySpace page for 4 months and had more requests from porno bots than from real people.

Last time I checked in, my inbox had 30 or so friend requests... only ONE was from a person and not a **** Pusher.

LOL Yeah that is horrible Myspace is a joke.

Cash shop prices are high cost, I agree. But not whinning. Was the myspace event intented to fail from the begining, probably not. But i do think that these 2 things are linked together.
You have 100 people playing on the server, 25% may spend money on cash shop and 10% of the 25% may do so on a regular basis.(just example numbers, not reality and very basic.) This statistic of population(general as it is) drives the price point of CS(cash shop) items on a peticular server to somehow support it alittle. You have 1000 people now playing on the server rather then 100. Using the same basic formula as above, you would probably see a reduction in CS item prices.So, did the mysapce event fail in total, maybe not. If the advertisement from the event draws in more players to the server, let us hope it does, we may yet see a benefit from it down the road concerning CS prices. Just my take on the matter. Anyway i hate typing, can stand it, going to play.

It's optional if you want to buy or not.. the zen price is stupid so I won't buy golds using my MMMMMM HARD CASH MONEY! ! !

anywayz it's just a sale.. I still don't know why they would not change the zen prices.. the competition is starting up.. and the new server is slowly leeching the people from PWI. well that's PWI for yah~

I did not add them on my friendlist cuz the server is bad so why would I? the event sucks anyway

Given, I know nothing about the Zhen parties that Blanch mentioned, but I have to agree that from my experience in testing them with grinding, I did not see worthwhile results at all. So, while I did send a friend request on MySpace the first day of the event to participate and perhaps help all those desperately wanting it, I never had much faith in it.

I do not think it is a scam. Everything done by "management" in this game is geared toward doing everything possible to get players to spend real cash. This is not to say you must spend money in order to play. I'm simply stating that there is much less frustration and thoughts of nefarious practices if you focus on the fact that they are here to make money.

That said, I did not vote. I did not love or hate the event, but I do care and I also do not think you should shut up. IMO, in the future, you might consider adding a positive choice for the vote overall and an "I don't care choice" that has no negative connotations attached.

Although I do think it is in poor taste of them to try and make more money off players after not meeting the goal immediately following the huge money making halloween event, I will not go as far as to scream it's a scam.

You don't have an option available for me to vote, so I will simply leave my short thought here for the sake of having added my 2 cents.

lol they ripped us off, or at least the ppl that added them to myspace

so they didnt reach 6000, why not give 1.5 xp for 4-5 days then? or at least a decent 50% OFF, wtf is 20% anyway, why not make it 17.4131 %

3000 people who maybe not pay for items in shop

Brought you players in who maybe pay, maybe around 2000 players who will pay

All of this myspace should have never happened seeing most dont like it

But they do come to the game and play and pay, ever thought of that ? so whats in for those players ?

Like usual a Shop item .. event , we love you... (barf)

So like always u gain what u want paying customers and we gain nothing

I allready know and so do more people we are leaving to europe allready many people have had it with your bad customers support and ur very bad additute treatening people with actions if they speak up against things wich are bad handled or pushed by your company false advertising is bad and so you lose your players

Another note, the players who are leaving are also Americans and Canadians.. dont u guys see it? we want to play a game treated normally, the game should be for us ?

Also and its so sad to see this that when u make your Shop items so expensive the game doesnt change inside no better drops no better exp . while the items in game are also being sold for way to much ?

You know how much farming more then any other versions has to be done for getting things ?

Your forcing people to ask for more then the game can handle.. and basicly yes thats the trick to get u more customers in shop... You might need to read other game forums how much things are being handled way more nicer towards your customers and not only respond on cash shop or bad posts u dont like to see on your forum or others see, they will find out anyways so dont treaten or threaten people so bad

I paid more then 150 euro last month

Dont u think things will change if u show u dont want to treat us nicer or listen a little bit to us ?

People have problems should be nicer handled seriously

We can not i think point the finger to you guys who handle the forums buy you guys do act on the way its done..

Anyway those kind of events are poor since of beggining. Majority of ppl stay hella out of myspace and other similar services, just for reasons that they are primary target of spam bots viruses etc.

Well i believe its not a Scam But saying that how many Free MMO's these days aren't a scam you just have to look at the way these games lean towards there Cash shops to make the game more playable and easier its sad and a scam yes but these things are big business... on a whole tho the Myspace event wasnt a scam in my eyes.. pain in the butt but not a scam..

Why is it that someone complains about everything? We didn't make it to 6k, no it was not an unreasonable goal, yes it is nice of them to give us a discount on xp scrolls because we came close. If you really think everything about this game is a scam just quit already.

I had to vote the "I do not care" option because I did think the event was possible and did not think it was a scam, yet still do not care at all about 20% off. I never bought exp scrolls at the old price and will not bother with them at 20% off either. All of their "sales" are jokes as far as I am concerned. Their "sales" only take very small percentages off the price of things so they are still never worth buying. In the real world if something is not at least 50% off I do not even consider it to be on sale. A sale of less than 50% is just a buzz word to try and con people into thinking they are getting a deal. 20% is so close to full price that it is a joke to even use the word sale.

I voted " I do not care " but please scrap that " STFU muff " part for I have nothing against muff ... Hum, people will get the wrong idea.

Ah well, the event was flawed from the start. Using MySpace as a medium, knowing how dirty many users are and how badly monitored it is, was a suboptimal move.

I would have liked the XP bonus, but it was not worth attracting on me and my friends the attention of MySpace's fauna.
