This kind of **** isn't going to fly CCP, as a long time consumer I'm not going to just sit here and let you pressure and bully players so you don't have to honor the original terms of purchase.

Unlike our spineless CPM that we didn't even vote on, I'm going to take a stand against this ****. Forcing people who WANT THE ORIGINAL TERMS OF PURCHASE HONORED to reset their characters is a kick below the belt, and a very ham-handed and childish way to get yourself out of a corner YOU PAINTED YOURSELVES INTO.

call them, or spam their live chat en-masse, bullying tactics to prevent honoring the original terms of purchase is simply unacceptable, and if they're willing to do underhanded business tactics like this, what will they do in the future? We should have expected as much from a company that thinks "greed is good" anyways.

you should quit.

You got what you paid for, and you just wanted to get a free $20 worth of stuff. Get over yourself.

The **** is yall problems yall made the decision to buy aurum in the early stages of the game and yet yall wanted a refund did ccp force yall to buy it or did you buy it of your own free will? and yall cried about wanting a refund ( which they have given you one which they shouldnt have in the first place) and now since they are making you lose your stuff you complain again

I think you need to direct this at CCP first. As I stated in the other thread this approach will lead to a full reset. I think the best approach should be a demand for a percentage of AUR spent per Merc.

Maybe start a petition on here.

Someone create a good lawyer speak petition. Everyone who is interested sends in their own petition. Give it a timeframe for a response. If they don't respond satisfactorily, send one to Sony.

Choose your path wisely because you could end up dooming this game if the end result is a full reset.

I'm not sure I can start from scratch again. This would be my 3rd reset and the proto bar is even higher to reach now.

Tread carefully

To make people not flame these threads, someone is going to have to come up with these "Original Terms of Service". Because i for one dont recall.

We want what we paid for, which is a refund on commercial release. CCP is bullying people who want WHAT THEY PAID FOR to DELETING EVERYTHING.

HOW IS THIS NOT A PROBLEM FOR YOU?

Sometimes you don't get to like the choices you face. Maybe y'all should just grow up and make your choice and deal with it already?

where is my option to ask for my money back? I would gladly erase my character for good and take $40 bucks that they stole from me. Shows you what CCP really is. A bunch of Chinese hackers stealing account numbers from the elderly from across the seas would have more honor.

Here, I'll let you in on a little secret. Dust was quick to co-opt the Eve catchphrase "Adapt or Die", but it did so before it really knew what it meant. You probably thought that like any other game it was to do with the simple act of winning and losing, but if nothing changes, why would anyone need to adapt? You'd simply settle into a comfortable winning strategy and stay there until you burnt out after a year or two of pulling the same bull**** in matches.

This, right now, is what it really means. Will you cry and wave your arms when things get flipped upside down, and the best is no longer the thing you thought it was, or will you "HTFU" and deal with it? Looking at the Dust forums right now, all I see is tears from people who assumed there was a skill finish line and a one true best fitting, and loved to throw accusations of QQ around the forums when they had everything figured out, but Eve players have seen this kind of upheaval so many times in the last ten years they must be looking at this and laughing at us.

Ask yourself this: Do you want a game that you drill for three years, never changing, until you realise the community around it has started to die and you're on a sinking ship, or would you like something that is still surprising you five years and infinite stories from now? If you want the latter, you're going to have to get used to change, or perish. If only there was a catchy way of summing that up.

Yup. CCP is following that to the letter.

Sorry, Kobrah. Opt in if you want your merc packs refunded.

if you used the booster in a permanent build with permanent SP, you got the use out of it. You ain't being cheated, you a whiny fourmwhore.

Only one phrase comes to mind when I see all these people whining about wanting free stuff.

"U mad bro?"

I have words for CCP. I bought five merc packs. "Shut up and take my money."
I bought stuff. I used stuff. I spent money on boosters. I spent money on AUR items. Does this make me a whiney entitled brat?

Nope.

I can't read or understand basic english.

It makes you a childish, sheepish consumer that doesn't care if his terms of purchase are violated, or if CCP bullies you into a corner to make sure you can't avoid lining their pockets with more 20 dollar bills.

FTFY

I don't -have- to spend a dime on DUST. I do because I enjoy the game.

You should be banned for falsely quoting me.

I feel like I'm one of the precious few people that read the TOS for the beta stating that as beta testers, we are do not have entitlements. We are volunteers. If you spent money, that was your choice. CCP didn't make the choice for you.

Are you really this brainwashed? consumers have rights too, don't feel like you're entitled to nothing and powerless against any company.

This bad PR is not going to work here in forums.. CCP dont talk with us here. Forums arent public enough.. more like Facebook, twitter , game sites, Sonys site.. get information out there whe possible new players/consumers are.

You have no rights, and you agreed to that. Spend money suing please, do it.

Nowhere in the merc pack does it say I waive my consumer rights...that would never hold up in court anyways.

i'm not spending money to sue anyone, i'll do this the free way: protest and filing complaints en-masse until someone higher up does something about it.

are you 12? do you not know how the world works? people get sued for thousands of dollars for a much smaller offense than this on a daily basis.

I wholeheartedly agree you should spend time working on that. I know how it will turn out, and plus maybe you will be to busy to breed.

I've said it in other threads, but I think the choice being given is going to protect CCP legally. I don't think it protects them from a customer service standpoint.

It's not really a fair choice. And it's not fair to reset everybody. I think the compromise should be a partial refund of AUR spent by all.

I think it is completely fair. Especially for everyone who hasn't bought a merc pack jet. I'd be seriously kittened if some people could safe a ton of isk (by using AUR items), get a bunch of extra SP (through bosters and by better performing due to better gear) and then get another set of boosters gear and AUR.

You bought yourself a tasty cake and now you guys want another one although you already ate the one you paid for.
