Vrain Matari ZionTCD Public Disorder. 1267	Posted - 2013.11.23 20:06:00 - [10] - Quote My preferred solution is simple simple: 1) Players keep their BPOs. 2) If is player possesses a particular BPO, say for the 'Exile' AR, then every standard AR owned is automatically modified while in that BPO holder's possesion. 3) The modification should be cosmetic, but also add some piece of sidegrade functionality, such as a minor range buff, better cooldown, greater magazine capacity, quicker reload. As an example, let's take the Exile. I'd redesign the BPO so that it confers a flat 2% buff to range, ammo capacity & reload speed. This would be useful, but definitely not OP. I support SP rollover.

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. Life is killing me.

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! Life is killing me.

Aside from the other whinging that has been going on about the 4 BPO removals, this is one of the first with a valuable point besides self entitled bull. The issue here is whether CCP have the records of what each person paid. Seeing as it's a reimbursement, and if the records are there, I'll be happy to get back what I paid for them. To my memory I got them for around the 10 Aurum mark, but it might have been 100. Either way, far reimbursement is all I'm looking for. If the records aren't there then the only way CCP can deal with it is as they have said, reimburse everyone at 4800 Aurum a pop.

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.

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. It's even in there that you might not get a refund. CCP, not wanting to have their community hate them, are giving out refunds where they don't have to*. Be grateful you are receiving anything at all. 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.

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 sht for them to be working on. 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. I don't need to. No matter how much you dislike what CCP is doing, you agreed to their ability to do it. You didn't have to click accept. End of story. only simple people have opinions without information..... thank you for marking yourself as someone who needs not be taken serious. makes less people I need to reply to... btw... youre actually wrong. read some threads to find out why SAY NO TO BPO REMOVALS!*

The way I see it, CCP may have the legal grounds to remove any BPO we purchased in-game from the store, and I fear they might want to go that far. However, I am almost sure that legally they won't be able to pull off removing anything that was included in a Bundle, and not purchased for AUR. That would be ridiculous, legally probably impossible, and I assume that many players - which might include me - would just leave without a word.

First off, +1 for attempting a good and worthwhile discussion ... Too bad it degenerated as your other threads Second, before I start listing my alternatives (in a attempt to steer this thread in the direction I assume you wanted), I should mention that I regard the current form of BPOs to be totally game-breaking and should not have excited in the first place. With that said, 1) For BPOs purchased through the in-game store I find Aurum refund perfectly acceptable, even for other BPOs than the 4 vehicle ones that are currently being removed. I don't care if other people might profit from this, since I got what I payed for them back. 2) Optional sell-back: Even if we get to keep the rest of the BPOs unmodified, it will be highly unlikely we ever going to be allowed to trade them freely (as this would totally ruin the economy). So there should be an option to sell your surplus (you only need one of each type, right?) to a NPC for Aurum, ISK or other goods. This way CCP can drain as much as possible of the BPOs away from the market without too much fuss. If you want to keep your 20+ copies, you are allowed to. 3) Convert the BPOs to vanity items, I.e skins to apply to normal suites. These should not change the stats of the suite in any way though. This is not a very good option in my eyes (after thinking about it), since while it's cool to have a unique color scheme, you basically don't get anything as useful in return, but hey, it's permanent 4) Convert the existing BPOs to EVE style, which requires some form of manufacturing. You should be able to produce these for less than the market value, so you could sell them at a profit. However, since most BPOs are militia, I think the existing should be bumped up to advanced. New BPOs for militia (and proto) could then be introduced since ALL equipment in-game needs to be manufactured. Number 4 is my preferred option, but will require some major work from CCP. I will end with saying I fully agree with you that there need to be more appealing items available for Aurum in the store. I suspect CCP does as well (they do want to make money), so my suggestion is to hold on to your Aurum refund until then. For me, I will buy some Rail Rifles to try them out before I skill into them.
