No matter what the tech explanation(s) might be, it looks rather like Cryptic is trying to stop LB keys being bought with CPs that come from ingame :rolleyes:
As they've said more then once, it is a bug which they are working on. They've also been closing threads and handing out Infractions to people who imply differently.
Dilithium can be used to purchase c-store points. Please explain to me where you have to pay real money for that????
People need to obtain the CPs to sell for Dilithium. You're not buying them from Cryptic with Dilithium. You're buying them from other players who do not want them.
Thanks for the info (although this is no official thread started by C.) - next time I'll make sure to check not only the first page of SEARCH but at least the next 3 too :rolleyes:
You do know that SEARCH also checks the threads content not only the title?
I assume you know that under Advance Search there is a way to specify titles or content. If you were not aware of that well then that is your item learned for the day.

Where did I ever mentioned buying then from Cryptic - "Dilithium can be used to purchase c-store points. " LOL

The point Anaconda was making is that someone paid real money for the CPs. The only way you can buy them with Dilithium is if someone else paid for them with real money in some fashion - either by Subscribing or by direct purchase.
Cryptic does not benefit by shutting down the Dilithium Exchange because someone has already paid real money for the CPs - even if it's not you.

Well done Cryptic, you're welcome to "handle out infractions" to me for your own forum handling.
PS: Please link to the official thread I obviously missed.
Witch would be a stupid argument (from them) since C-Points are already earned by real life money (even from the Subscriber stipend).

I think the point is you pay money for c-points, but dont' for dilithium. So trading dilithium for c-points is cheating them of their profits.
Skeptically speaking it makes sense. I don't know enough to say if it's true or just paranoid at this point, though.
