    Red signifies "*Leaves the PW Boutique at sale's end date". That means it is not an item normally carried in the cash shop. Orbs should still be in the boutique on sale until the 12th. They also should have been marked in red.

    I held off on buying the 12* because the site said until the 12th and wanted to farm more coin -_-. Please return them to cash shop >_>

    wow. I was waiting to buy it this week. It's really unfair because if PWI posted the correct sale end date for the orbs, I would of bought mine earlier. This is fked up.

    Sparkie, can you do something about this?

    So yesterday when I noticed orbs went off sale, I sent this polite ticket to get some insight into what is going on.
    Hello dear PWI Staff,

    It feels like submitting a ticket to you weekly will soon become a habit(and a chore) as once again, at no surprise to anyone, you seem to have fake advertised, mislead, lied and f*cked up - again.

    Firstly, please by all means click on the following link (don't worry, it's a link directly from arc pwi news page).

    http://www.arcgames.com/en/games/pwi/news/detail/9002153-dragon-orbs%2C-halloween-fashion%2C-and-more%21

    Secondly, please read (3 or 4 times just to make sure no mistakes this time).
    "Sale Start Date: Wednesday October 29th, 2014 @ 1:00 AM Server Time

    Sale End Date: Wednesday, November 12th, 2014 @ 1:00 AM Server Time"

    Now please ACTUALLY LOG IN to pwi, specifically Raging Tides server (idgaf if you **** up any of the other servers). Click "O" (to get into boutique), and check either the 'new' tab under 'shop' OR the 'refine' tab under 'Craft'. The orbs SHOULD be there, still on sale, for another 9 days, yet THEY HAVE BEEN turned off AS YOU started promoting the sale IN WORLD CHAT IN RED TEXT.

    Please fix ASAP, and don't just reply with your typical template apologising and saying you will "look" into the problem and providing some sort of false info or closing the ticket without any real proper feedback. THANKS!


    Today they replied with the following:
    Hello (editing my name out)

    Thank you for your report.

    Unfortunately, there had been some issues with the availability of the dragon orbs for the sale. We are currently unable to provide a specific timeframe; however, we'll look into having this fixed and check if there are any available Orbs for sale in a future maintenance update.

    Regards,

    Can someone please explain to me how a game item in boutique can have availability issues? Are pwe staff so fking **** that they think it is like real life items you buy and you can run out of stock?

    Food for thought - chinese sweat shops now manufacture pixels b:thanks

    Wow i just have to say this is not a first for PWI....anyone else remember when they first started removing DQ? The patch notes said NOTHING about a change but they had changed the writing on the DQ items themself, once i put up a thread asking about this all a sudden half way through the day the patch notes mentioned the change. This is REALLY bad business practice. PWE should be ashamed.

    I don't know whether to laugh or cry. It seems they have hired Walmart Greeters. b:laughb:cryb They don't have any on the shelves b:shocked NO idea when truck comes in.

    If you charged zen to buy these orbs and they were removed before the stated end date and you were unable to purchase, you should file complaints with your attorney general and/or Federal Trade Commission. That is SUPREMELY FARKED UP! They can't be doing this.

    Their advertising is often misleading.....

    They are not clear - they hide behind looped logic and language and then try to explain it away by saying that we simply "read it wrong"...

    And often - we find the websites text has been changed when enough complain...


    It bothers me that a game I sincerely love playing is being managed in such a manner....

    It bothers me that it is as if no one higher up is looking, paying attention or maybe just does not care.

    It bothers me that what is painfully obvious to us > is not to whomever is managing this game

    It bothers me that those same people > have no clue what an amazing game Perfect World is, and how they could turn it around if they just stopped being so d---n greedy - and opened that tight fist a bit to give back.. instead of take take take.

    It was not always this way... so you have to wonder why it is now...

    PWI if a sale is for a week then post that it is for a week. Don't just change your post and dates AFTER you took them out of the boutique.This is not good business practice. Also it angers the very exact ppl that you rely on to keep the servers going, the Cash Shoppers. Sometimes when management does this kind of stuff, it makes me feel as tho you guys subliminally really want to tank this game by angering the very core ppl u need to keep the servers going aka the cash shoppers willing to drop a few hundred dollars on high lvl orbs. Also if this was a genuine coding glitch own up to it, let us know what happened. Sparkie I think you are doing a good job trying to interact with us gamers. None of the ppl before you interacted or answered hardly any of the forum questions, remember the questions left unanswered on the forums about the 40vs 40 faction base wars? PPl were asking questions for 6 months with no response. The free stuff is appreciated. Sparkie, please hear me and look into why the ppl in charge of your spend/charge promotions can't seem to get it right. Some of the promotions are poorly worded or details are left out like dates, i ended up getting screwed out of my +10 orb from that promotion. Or for instance why in the world could I follow your exact directions in another spend promo at the end of August and not get my free war avatar pack? After two tickets with all the proof in the world I spent money in your boutique, you send me 10 profundity scrolls? How hard would it have been to type me code for my war avatar pack? This stuff angers us gamers. Look into the department or ppl who run these boutique sales? Are they the same ppl? Because if they are, they are the problem. You guys have a great game, but you can not anger your customers, the very lifeline of your games existance. Thank you for your time.
