4800 AUR is more than enough for 4 mediocre militia BPOs when a lot of people bought them for 50 AUR.

your tears are sooo delicious. Keep making threads.

but what about the people who paid 4800 aur for them?

while those who paid 50 make a profit, those who paid 4800 don't.
isn't that imbalanced?
shouldn't the people who paid 4800 aur get like 40k aur (estimated comparable increase from 50 to 4800)?

They could be grateful that they're getting a refund and stop being so self entitled? Just a thought.

so what is good compensation for the bpo removals.

these were useful permanent items.

should we get something useful and permanent?

is 4800 aur fair compensation when a lot of people only paid 50 aur for the item but a lot of others actually paid 4800?
should those who only paid 50 get 50, or should those who paid 4800 get an equal increase in aur complimentary to the increase those who paid 50 are getting?

vanity items? ones that are exclusive to those who had these bpo's that no one else could ever get?

please discuss seriously. add your ideas.

nova knife posed this challenge and i would like a mature discussion.

if you don't have these bpo's or you just want to troll, please refrain from posting.

thanks.

but am I not entitled to what I purchased? to be treated fairly by the seller of that product?

is CCP entitled to take money under false pretense?

you will say i chose to give them my money, yes I did.

and they chose to sell me a bpo.

why do they have more right to that bpo than I do to my money?

Ah, but what exactly did you purchase? BPOs for cash? Nope. You purchased Aurum; what you chose to do with that was entirely up to you. Now that the item you purchased will no longer be offered, you'll get Aurum back...which is exactly what you paid for. End of discussion.

not end of discussion.
when i bought aur, permanent , useful items were on the market. now they are not. so the aur I bought before is actually worth more than the aur I'm given now.

not to mention there are people who only paid 50 aur for these items... why do they get 4800 aur, but I, who paid 4800 aur don't get a mark up in aur back?

isn't that imbalanced?

They could be grateful that they're getting a refund and stop being so self entitled? Just a thought.

Look at it this way--you paid money for an item and received usage out of it. Now, you're getting FULL value for the item(s) that are being removed. How is that not fair? You've gotten to enjoy a good with absolutely zero depreciation penalty!

You might want to stick to what your OP stated and comment in other thread dealing with ther facets of the BPO issue if you want non troll responses to be taken seriously here. If you purchase any software that is used to interact online with other buyers you will always run the risk that that software will be developed beyond what you are happy with to suit the whole. That is a risk that all buyers are warned off in the small print and accept by using the software. In an optimum situation you can argue for reimbursement, but that won't be always the case. Mostly though it's tough luck, and go find other software that suits your present needs. In this case you're getting reimbursed.

Stick to your thread title and lets see if fair exact reimbursement can be gotten for all.

It's enough (I'm making a profit ... ). But next time I would rather end up with a useless BPO than seeing CCP messing in my inventory.
What if they decide there are too many BALAC's in the game ? They just take it away ?
I hope this is not how things works for CCP ...

You haven't played too many free to play games have you?

I'm loosing BPOs. I can't remember if I bought them cheap or not (some were full price for sure). I think CCP's approach is perfectly reasonable. I'm not butthurt. I understand why this solution is the easiest/simplest fix. I don't want CCP squandering development resources on this. There is plenty of other more important sh*t for them to be working on.

OMFG, BPO removal being compared to countries being taken over.... This whole BPO saga gets more and more bizarre on a daily basis.

too many of you are just looking at this from your own gain or loss instead of being concerned about the president it sets...

today they pull this crap with stuff you don't care about.

tomorrow they do it with something you do care about, but the groundwork was already laid out for them to do it, because the community remained quiet or disdainful of those who spoke when they didn't care.

people like IWS are the worst because they are supposed to represent the communities best interest but instead he craps on our valid concerns simply because he isn't bothered by the change.

you ever hear the story of the country that was taking over other countries?

the countries being accosted asked for help from those who weren't being attacked.

the requests were ignored because their soverenty wasn't being encroached.

before long the invading country did attack those others and when they went to seek help they realized there was no one to seek aid from because all the other countries were already defeated.

the lesson here, don't wait for it to directly affect you, because then its to late.

what ccp is doing is unacceptable and we should stand united against this type of action else eventually something you care about be affected.

The lesson here is if you don't like how something works, don't accept the Terms of Service thats required to play the game.

You have been agreeing to a contract that states they have the ability to remove anything they want from the game.

As for precedence, this isn't anything new. Companies have been doing this for years, and will continue doing it.

I suggest you read contracts in the future before accepting the terms therein.

this defense is old and dry...

read my other posts why this doesn't hold up.

its a parable you dope....
