    If you are farming them, you do not need to buy them, since you are getting them yourself.... He did not say buy the things from farmers, did he? You can be self-suficient by getting all the mats yourself and not buying them from other people.

    Yes most of the members in-game do not post on the forums however, like I've said before:

    If a company wants to see what consumer thinks about their product, do they go by and ask every single consumer their opinions? Of course not, that would be impossible. What they do is they take a small group of their consumers that they feel actively represents their average consumer's demographics. Then they survey this small group and use the results from that to come up with how the entire consumer base feels.

    Well to PWE the forums is that small group that they use to represent the entire consumer base.

    So as to say that someone is wrong simply because they can't ask everyone is kinda wrong, we represent the PWI community. And if say 90% of the forums is against anniversary packs, then I feel it is safe to say 90% of all PWI users is against anniversary packs.


    I saw a post on these forums earlier that explained this is in greater detail, I will attempt to locate it.




    Also I'm pretty sure that buii was referring to other necessities like charms and dragon orbs....

    "There are players that spend in game coin to buy gold to buy Annipacks with, some of them are in my own faction. Doesn't seem very fair to leave them high and dry."

    also is unfair that poor people like me can not buy anything

    Mostly I agree, however, the example here is:

    If you take a poll of people in favour of gun control during the Democratic convention you will get numbers that are different than if you were to make that poll during the Republican convention. And both number would be different than if you were to do a random survey of the population.

    The people that post in the forums are an interest group to start with, so we have biased opinions.

    @buii - If you do not like being poor, work harder and get more coin.

    Why are the anniversary packs, BACK again? This has caused so much trouble. It was here the first time, raised the gold prices to 400k-500k. Gone, and the gold prices lowered to 300k. And then, back the second time, people became smarter and cranked the prices up to 500k a pack. And then it leaves, FOR A DAY, and people sell it for one million each. The gold prices are ridiculous. =\ Can the GM's, please take it out, FOR GOOD? It's called anniversary packs for a reason, there was an anniversary, but it can't go on for a month. b:cry Take them out! I liked it when gold was 120k each. b:angry
    f:shame

    well go work more than, if you were to work 400% harder you would actualy get ahead.

    Buying cash shop items for coins is a luxary. So if you want a luxary item, work harder for it.

    Besides that, you can get all the mats you need for your gear in-game by farming yourself.

    I have farmed all my gear, and I have been able to feed my fashion vice by working hard.

    No, no, no. PWE is a business. Very rarely do businesses look at their forums to gauge public opinion, because they know that it's mostly going to just be people that don't like what they are doing, the people that are happy don't have anything to say about it. No, like other businesses, they look at their log books to come up with how the majority of the consumer base feels. Anny packs in... Money in goes up? Anny packs out... money in goes down? Anny packs go back in... Money in goes up again? Yep, people like them.

    okay this is one thing I do not understand. They were supposed to be gone starting of november two days later they re release them whats up with that? Also whats the point is it a anniversery 24/7? Why not make D orb sale or something. For a merchant like me anni packs are a nightmare when they reapear two days after i have completly stacked up on tokens. Also im pretty sure most players are tired of them and would like something else besides anni packs reapearing when they were supposed to be gone 2-3 months ago
