    Look Tearvalin ... I feel sorry that you are disabled and are on a limited income and therefore you somehow have some hate for people that pay real money in the cashshop.
    im not foxrunning, noob. i dont 'hate' cs users, nor have i ever said i do, so dont go putting words in my mouth. its just obnoxious that you still bicker even after theyve made commentary saying theyre doing something about it.

    protip: it helps if you spell my name correctly.

    Hey hey hey....Xarfox has just brought some promising news to make up for the issue addressed in the OP. Let's not rip and chew each other up now, ya?

    You should sit, calm down, relax, smile, have a break, have a kit-kat. b:pleased

    a bit more as a humorous comment than anything else (explicitly: not trying to add to a negative atmosphere here)

    copy and paste works wonders eh? b:chuckle b:chuckle b:laugh


    on topic:
    yes it does suck that the sale didnt last till it was advertised to end, and by the looks of things it dosent seem we're gona get mounts or 30 silver packs tonight, unless some miracle happens and they restart the sale and extend it till 23:59 monday 27 Jul 09.

    on the bright side tho, if you spent $50 and got the extra 15%, and noticed the sale had ended early, and if they do put mounts and 30silver packs back up, you'll still be gettin the same deal as u (we) were supposed to be able to do till 23:59 pacific U.S. time tonight.

    if they dont, its gona be a helluva flame then lol
    i'm pro all classes, and against none in particular..
    but the age old QQ about venos is just that. OLD.

    Assuming by making up for it you mean placing the mounts and pet packs on sale again, I hope that you also take into consideration the zen sale currently going on. I realize that didn't end early but having a zen sale and an item sale at different times is quite a bit different than a zen sale with an item sale at the same time. It would probably be appropriate as well, for a future sale of those items to last for two or maybe three days, although the sale time was only shorted for one day. This is because not everyone can log in to buy zen or ingame items every day (particularly so as the more money available to spend on this game, the more strict your schedule is likely to be), and a multi day sale will reach more people.

    It would also be nice if it were broadcast ingame so that more people know, not everyone reads the forums remember.

    Lol, TEARVALERIN ... I know you are not Foxrunning .. she is a nice person.

    However, if you don't want people to know you are disabled and on a limited income don't put it in your profile and hint about in on posts.

    I have nothing against you, you have put some quite useful guides on the forum. However, you can also be very negative and critical. By self admission you troll on purpose and even got yourself banned for a while. b:victory

    On topic:

    My point is time is money. I decided to spend cash to save time and get entertainment from my Nix this weekend. Now I can't, without spending even more cash. My ticket still hasn't been responded to.

    If I had known in advance I would have taken the money and gone to Disneyland instead. b:chuckle

    However, as a speculator who was playing the market, I took a loss of 2.5mill when the sale suddenly ended and I was left with a bunch of Gold that I'd seriously over-paid for. That damage is pretty much un-fixable, but you know, I'm kinda OK with it.

    I'm curious - how high did the gold prices go on Sanctuary? On HT it only went from about 125k to 143k when i bought my gold (an hour before the premature end of the sale). I was pretty surprised at the modest price increase. I was expecting closer to 200k.

    Before the sale announcement it was about 125k, while at the peak just before the sale ended it was at 150k. Granted, if you only wanted small quantities or were patient you could get it at about 145k at the peak, but since I was buying and selling in bulk I paid 150k. My markup was about 6%, btw.

    I was also surprised it stayed so low. Break-even would have been about 200k for the Battle Packs. At 150k it was still a very good bargain, working out to ~1710 per SoF/Feather at 150k per gold, vs. ~2380 at 125k per gold non-sale.

    Were you a gold seller? If so, then thanks! I too made a lot thanks to the sale (even with my above-mentioned losses factored in) but couldn't have done it without help from those selling the gold.

    Someone that has a screenshot utility go to the Ad page and take a pic of the announcement. So they can't go and change it. I would do it but i can't find the one I used b4 I reinstalled windows.

    I heard through anonymous sources that there will be a surprise monday which is why they took down the weekend sale a day early. My leg was probably being pulled and someone simply messed up(Cause I was also told it would be back up before gold sale ended, and there is less than 4 hours left). Or they wanted to see how bad our e-rage would get before making patching changes to give more unreleased pets/mounts/Aeros?

    Curious, why ppl dont post about the early sales end last time, (about 4 to 5 months ago, maybe 6 months ago) it end 1 hr early, i brought zen , was buying battlepack got about 7100 sof/pf then sales end 1 hr early, still have enough gold to buy the rest but sales end, ppl chtting intown as well as world chat about sales end early, i look in form about any post, none posted, then i check forum everyday for few more days & not a single post about sales end early, weird.

    since then it cause me severay month before i can get my herc & loss of around 5m, also cost me lots of time leaving my pc on to get very little, due to disconnect that cost my utility bill goes up for leaving my pc on a lot.

    did anyone remember the last time sales end 1 hr early?

    i guess is this time sales end 1 day early instead of 1 hr early, eitherway i spent real money to buy zen to buy battlepack & didnt get my money's worth, will PW compensate for my last loss as well as this loss of getting my sof/pf? or will i have to waite for next sale??????b:surrender

    A day is a lot bigger than an hour. There is kind of a breaking point on how screwed over you need to be to become completely pissed off. Because they said it would end sunday evening but instead ended late saturday or ~1AM on sunday, that will **** a lot of people off who for whatever reason had to wait until sunday to buy their Zen. Because of their advertising you would have thought it would have been safe to do that. Apparently not, thus people get angry about it.

    eitherway ppl buy zen to get gold to go home to buy sale & cant buy because sales end early without warning.

    o' waite Thansgiving is comming, maybe i get my turkey instead.
