    They used indefinitely if I'm not mistaken.... but that's still them not keeping their word.

    I'm not gonna bother going into technicalities with you. But I just saw the news page and.....


    The Medals of Glory and Mysterious Chip Packs have been added to the shop -- there is no scheduled date for their removal.


    Really?....

    Indefinitely: For an unlimited or unspecified period of time.

    There's your problem.

    R9 has been and will always been in cash shop. But keep adding and removing will give players more motive to buy or to buy in a hurry. I bought all medals I would probably need for a long long time before they "indefinitely" being removed from cash shop.b:victory. I should have know this is going to happen. so not going to buy into 25G ocean orb this time. I guess soon we may get 5 pack ocean orb back.

    If they ever permanently take R9 medals out of the boutique, they are truely idiots and might as well shut down the servers the same day.

    Regardless of whether you think R9 was a good or bad idea, removing rank 9 mats after it has been there for a few years now permanently shuts down the fairness of the end game for non R9 players, and creates a gaping hole between the playerbase.

    As it stands Perfect World Entertainment is not stupid, just extremely lazy, dishonest, and greedy. Rank medals will never be removed "indefinately".
    The 3 fundamental F's of Perfect World are "Fun, Fast, and Free."

    You may pick two.

    I think you missed the part where it said bundles of medals not medals. Kinda like they removed the ocean orb pack and only had 66% off oceans for 25gold each.

    And since when is fairness always there, I mean look at the people who got to get them via DQP.

    Then I misunderstood the point, I was assuming they were just plain gone.

    R9 is pretty much the exact same as packs. It makes them a ton of cash. So they're here to stay permanently, make no mistake. The reason they keep adding sales is to create some sort of a sense of urgency, as in, players feel compelled to buy r9 before each sale ends, otherwise they panic that it might take a while to return and leave them with a half-complete set. Also, adding r9 directly as a permanent addition would cause a little more outrage than pretending it's only temporary.

    If r9 has finally become permanent, it probably means they've milked enough cash. I imagine they're working on their next outrageous large scale money making scheme as we speak.
