    I think your poll needs at least one more option:

    http://pwi-forum.perfectworld.com/showpost.php?p=12782541&postcount=348

    I do not think they should wait until the Exploit is fixed, as that could take months judging by the amount of time other bug fixes have required, nevertheless, they should do something to account for the situation and limit the damage it causes.

    I would vote for "Yes, via the Event Boutique and Medals should be added to the Cash Boutique". You know, sort of in between 2 and 3 on your poll.

    Good Luck!

    It wouldn't be so awful if they were put back in the cash shop for 25 gold. Yes it's a rip off. But at least it's attainable. Now they've essentially stopped anyone from getting r9.

    Is there still 1 random one given out per week to a guild who owns a territory? I thought that stopped happening when they went back to cash rewards.

    Make all DQ point items tradeable

    would make less people upset then this half assed move

    This. Why wasn't everything tradeable in the first place? It was supposed to make up for the coin lost in DQ's, not give you random **** you probably don't want.

    Was very tempted to choose the last option for the lulz, but...

    Yeah it's not too cool to let those who did exploit get their goods and run, then remove it from so many people legitamately working on getting R9.

    Let's face it, selling FC heads to PL n00bs is ok, but people using dq points to make coin/get gear isn't?

    I feel confuzzled on the logic behind this one. If the exploit was truly game breaking, ofc take it out, but this isn't like being able to tank mobs w/o getting hit or something ya know?

    Making all the medals untradeable until the exploit was fixed, would have dealt with the problem just as effectively. Exploiters would have qq'ed, but who cares, they are the ones to blame anyway.

    And people grinding hard to get rank 9 via DQ wouldn't have gotten the shaft like they have now.

    agreed...fast fix till they would get it sorted out..this way no1 would have any medals to glitch with either way

    If it's so easy to fix a bug by pulling the items, then why don't they pull the veno's nix and the - interval gear. They are cherry picking the easy bugs rather than addressing more serious game failures.

    Word of warning to people who have the un-tradeable medals still. If you have these in inventory and buy another from a catshop (not sure about boutique) the medals will automatically stack and BOTH medals become un-tradeable. The exploit has been fixed to where you cant stack them and both be tradeable but to such a point that even legitimately bought medals become un-tradeable. I forgot I was carrying the one I had got from dq rewards when rewards first came out because it cant be dropped I just threw it in inventory to save bank space. i bought one from a catshop to give to sin becuase it was cheap and now I have 2 untradeable medals. I sent a ticket and hopefully they can fix the one but I may just be out 25 mill. FML

    Farm your rank 9. Fa.gs. You don't accomplish anything simply swiping a credit card. Nerds.

    Quite frankly, I never really gave a damn about rank 9. Yes, a rank 9 psy is pretty nasty, but a highly refined psy endgame can be just as sickening. So the medals being removed doesn't affect me at all. I can use my points on event gold.


    Mmmmm....event gold...*drools*

    If this is the case, that there is no reason (at least not the ones stated by frankieraye) not to reinstate medals of glory back into the DQ page (when it is brought up again).

    8 pages are too many,so i'll not read all but...this was really a bad thing because (talking about me) i'm not a cash shopper, i'm not going to charge 1k+$ in a game, all i spent was 30$ and that's honest imo (normal price for a game). Whit the DQ reward system even a non heavy cash shopper can have chances to make the highest endgame gear whitout playing 24h/7: i made a veno for farm, than sent all DQ to my sin and than sold, in this way now i have around 60k DQ points (my target was 160k for 8 medals, daggers+ring), now everything it's gone...price of the medals it's skyrocket (around 30m each, at least on LC) and i'm losing the will to play (i don't want to trade my life for some pixels, thanks you but i give up the game).

    Wrong decisions are making pwi what it is now, i see much less people around, less cats in archosaur (still remember when every square was fill by a cat near the west tele, now there are around 30 or less, look VERY empty), wonder how much time servers will still work.

    If free players has no chance to do anything (unless they play the whole day for years) this game has no future.

    Gms should change the site and be more honest, this game it's free to register, but very very expensive to play.

    Put the medals back, why punish everyone for something that a few did and that has no impact whatsoever, why not fix the bug in the first place, I'm utterly annoyed by this sudden change at least give us a warning beforehand. b:angry

    Cute, would've mattered before everybody started gettinr r9. And not everybody has cashshopped it directly.

    Have that, doesn't compare, moving on.

    Highly refined r9 psy walks over highly refined nirvana psy.

    roflmao Sukinee +1bazillion ;o

    Nirvana 2nd cast is better than r8 though not as impressive as r9 it can have the added stats such as God of Frenzy and Spirit Blackhole *sigh* check pwi database if you guys want to see for yourselves you can just recast till you get the stats you want. Yes its expensive but so is r9 and if you want to pour your money into something that will give you insane gear then by all means, pour it into nirvana :p I for one can compromise if I cannot aqquire r9 but I for one want to r9 alot of my characters but :< if they remove it go for the next best thing max stat it give it insane gems and go for it :p ijs

    how in the world do pple think/vote the exploit is not bad when

    1) its named an 'exploit' by the company itself and
    2) they had to go and take it away cause such an exploit was not suppose to happen.

    sometimes i think pple have been immersing themselves in the internet too long when they start to justify the obvious wrongs for their own profit.
