Ah yes, the obligatory and completely off topic respec post.
And how exactly would that cause sales to go up?
If I get a sp refund I am less likely to buy a booster, not more likely.
I am less likely to buy aurum gear because I have a big pool of sp, not more likely.
Please elaborate on your claim and help me understand. I can be dense sometimes.
I guess that means that you don't purchase aurum either because boosters aren't the only thing that is purchased , CCP has sales like the one they do now where they sell packs , sometimes suits and gear at a certain percentage off and that doesn't stop people from buying , except where this one person said that they went to the sight and the sight said that the item was out ... yes they sell boosters but that's not all that they sell .
I speak about how if people are enjoying themselves they spend money .. now that's a known fact and it seems like people like yourself , whom it seems ... has a unallocated sp pool from the way that you speak , so I guess your voice wouldn't count anyway now would it ..??.. as you just testified , I'm speaking about those who are around 30 to 20 million range you know , when all of the changes started , if they along with those below them .. would start to enjoy themselves , these are the one's who write topics about how stale the game has become for them , you know .. the other people in the community besides the proto players who come to the forum and whine about everything or people like yourself it seems , who would love this game to stay in the same drawn out cycle of nerf's and buff's from complaints after patches drop and not waiting to see how the changes actually change the game but as soon as they see whatever type of advantage they had change , come to the forums and complain , in an attempt to try to change or they themselves move to the next FOTM from changes .. leaving those beneath them to wallow in this muck and mire of repeat and rinse , the same thing all over again while they jump from FOTM to the next because of that same unallocated sp pool that they have .
There not the one's spending money anyway so why would they care , as you put it . They have sp's so their not spending any money on boosters because of that . But these are the same people who are always against a refund but as you , yourself just put it ... they won't and don't spend money because they have a ton of unallocated sp's and they dictate the trend of the game threw their constant whining , while keeping a large group of the community beneath their boot and causing the game to be stale , drawn out and boring all the while .
People feel good about themselves they spend money , people feel good about a situation they spend money .. just because you've achieved what you wanted , doesn't mean that most have and players like yourself are the exception . People complaining about " lone wolf players " , while sitting on 60 million sp's are the minority but they dictate the trend of this game by statements like yours and such .
" I'm content , so why worry about anyone else , the people in my corp average 50 million sp's and we have fun ." , but you know what ..??.. your the minority , time to allow someone else to enjoy this game besides you . People feel good and they spend money , now test and debunk that theory but I was a business major , what do I know ?
Let you tell it means nothing , but in business ... your consumers feeling good about themselves and the situation that they are in and what a product can give them , means everything ... read any business weekly and they will tell you the same .
The companies that don't follow that trend , don't last too long unless they have a surplus ( big money from being well established , CCP is nowhere near that ) .. like yourself and they just don't care , like yourself .
But I guess that's neither here nor there because you or someone else who's just as narrow minded , will come and say something to the contrary . I respect that but it doesn't make it right and I'm sure you would say the same about me so , it is what it is .
