Okay so looking at the front page, were not getting our charm packs back tonight. Instead were getting dragon orbs cheaper. YaY!... not... -.-"

Why give us dragon orbs, we want charm packs? Just give us our charm packs back. We dont want dragon orbs 40% off.. We want buy 4 get 1 free charms... And STACKING BOXES back... You know how much of a pain it is to have 10 seperate charms in your bank. It sucks...

ANYWAYS...

Im taking donations for next weeks world chat entertainment before maint. =)

    Uh, it's called Fortune Stones on PW_MY, and the GMs/Mods know what I am talking about. They are used to transfer refined items. Meaning, keep your previous +'ed items for another.

    It's called Chientkung? or something oddly named here on this server.

    Well...I think it's **** that charm packs aren't back yet. I know a lot of people aren't buying ANY charms until they come back. I'm beginning to wonder IF they are coming back at all.

    But at least we'll have all the chocolate we want from mat mines. -_-


    P.S. I hate events that give you **** that nobody even uses. I've never used event potions. I can make them every day at the Apothecary...and I don't have to pay stupidly high prices from players to collect the mats for them.


    P.P.S. Meh...gimme back my charm packs FFS. b:cry

    Wow...have you GMs, or if you're not responsible for this, devs ever trolled the forums and seen that theres about 20-30+ pages of petitions for charm packs?

    And when will you get rid of chocolate mats?

    I just saw someones recent post edited by xarfox or however you spell it. So yeah they do, they just dont listen. Im going to laugh my .... off whenever someone files a lawsuit against them for false advertisment and the other laws theyve broken by taken those out.

    I could be sleepy but...
    Once this topic was created i checked the page and saw words like "limited time" "for a week" and "temporary".
    Now i just checked and saw "permanent" all over it.

    Did the GMs feel bad about this update at first?
    Or they just will remove the "permanent" words from it after a few weeks, like happened with charm packs?

    I talked with Ironman ingame, and he says something of this sort:

    We didn't expect so many people would react to it's removal. Yes, it wasn't an accident that we removed it. Although the sale was successful, we will add similar sales like such in the future.

    I have a few people with me when he said that. Don't have to believe me lol. But tbh, don't think they'll be adding the same Charms Packs anytime soon.

    GMs need to realize that Charm Packs relieved the server's economy a bit, both for cash users, and non-cash users.

    Now, I've not been here for long at all, but from lookin' around, and spendin' a lot of time buyin' and sellin', this looks to be one of the best ingame economies I've seen yet. What was/is wrong w/ it, exactly?

    This feelin' may not have been helped by the fact that I jus' came from a game w/ a chronically bad, superinflated, price-crashin', broken economy...

    Maybe they just think that "temporary" and "permanent" are synonyms? b:chuckle

    Seriously, I am usually not easy to disappoint by every minor thing, but the "charm pack scandal" did. It's really lame to tell people something is in to stay (and we do agree that this is what the world "permanent" means, right?) and then just take it out with any pre-warning. Can we at least get some update what your plans for this are, other than "they might be back in the future" (which doesn't tell anything, really)?

    It made the gold price on coins to go down.
    Before Charm Packs: 1 gold = 110k-120k
    During Charm Packs: 1 gold = 100k-110k
    Current: 1 gold = 105k-120k

    And prices are still going up slowly, being hard to find gold sellers for 100k again.

    No, this game lacks something. STAFF INTERACTION WITH PLAYERS.

    We get no kind of feedback, nothing. Other then "they were accidently removed".

    Its okay though, the PW office is open tomorrow isnt it?

    I bet you yall(PW) recieve a phone call about these charm packs tomorrow.

    Thas not too bad at least. I mean, 10~20k increase is a *****, but overall not horrible. Unless it keeps increasin'...that'd suck.

    Sayin' that...again, comin' from a game w/ broken economy...*shudders at 18m+ for [equivalent of 1 gold]*

    Count me in that group. I'm trying to make it a point to spend no more cash (read: "beyond what's already been spent") until we have charm packs back. And I know I'm not the only one with this stance. And, I, too, and am wondering if they'll ever return (and if PWE will get any more of my $$$)...

    PW staff do yall know false advertisment is illegal in America?

    quoting from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/False_advertising
    "The goal is prevention rather than punishment, reflecting the purpose of civil law in setting things right rather than that of criminal law. The typical sanction is to order the advertiser to stop its illegal acts, or to include disclosure of additional information that serves to avoid the chance of deception. Corrective advertising may be mandated [6],[7]. But there are no fines or prison time except for the infrequent instances when an advertiser refuses to stop despite being ordered to do so.[8]"

    So it's not like they could go to jail, anyway. At best you could sue them, but since they already ceased to advertise permanent charm packs (when they retroactively edited their announcement of permanency), and the game is free unless you optionally spend money on it, it's unlikely that your suit would get anywhere.

    ppl came during christmas spoiled by charms(b:surrender including me). <.< Not nice to notice that they didnt came back during last maintance... and charm prices are 400k each (gold one) >.< tws are becoming unfair cos some factions are using charms more than others. Promise is promise give our charm packs back!!
