Well I didn't spend my Aur stupidly so no problem with that here but as a I said, you get our aurum reset you get your char reset, otherwise you're getting the advantage of aurum boosters twice without paying for it. This was the offer, if you don't like it, take it up with CCP. They offered it, we bought it, now they realize it was a bad idea and just keep our money. And now the counter-argument being made is that, not only should we get screwed if we don't ask for a refund, but if we DO we lose all of our skill points? Why does this seem fair to you people? no you got absolutely everything you paid for. you get to use the aurum how ever you see fit. what noc is asking for is that he get to use up all the aur he has now on boosters/gear etc and gaing sp/isk off of it, then have it all restored at a later date so that he can use it a second time. explain to me how that logic Again, take it up with CCP, it's not MY problem that their offer was illogical.
It is your problem, unfortunately. I'm not condoning CCP's actions, but I'm sure you had counted on getting a "two-for-the-price-of-one" type deal despite knowing that CCP hadn't intended for this. You expected the way they marketed the Merc Pack to support your claim to AUR reimbursement. While accurate by the letter, this was an unsafe assumption by a common sense reading and in the context of what the pack was meant to do. It's always a gamble to try to pull "gotchas" or exploits, regardless of whether you're technically right. |

However, I do feel people were screwed over in that they were not flat out told, in writing, (link the post if you dispute this, thanks) that the last reset was the final reset for both characters and AUR.
"You should have known" Sorry my magic 8-ball was broken.
"It was mentioned third-hand from (insert random IRC channel) at (insert random time)" Oh..Well shame on me for not being in IRC or accepting info from anyone other than CCP directly.
As this is a beta, isn't forum participation part of the agreement (feedback, bug reports, etc.)? If so I'd think that this caveat would allow CCP to declare a forum post as "fair warning." Again, I'm not saying I agree with any of this. I think those that feel wronged should be reimbursed and have their character wiped in order to appropriately tie together the original market wording with the intended meaning and implementation of the product. |
