The other thread has bugged like a bug, so here goes again.....
Basically, in short, can someone please explain to me what's going on with all this 'refund' drama? I've read the threads and announcements, but I'm not getting it. |

I've read the threads and announcements, but I'm not getting it. everyone looses their isk/aur items in their assets and gets the current prices for both in todays market. If it doesent have an isk/aur market value in todays market you keep it
Why are people acting like that's a bad thing? And why are people bringing the legalities of merc pack sales into it? |

Every thread I find has people already talking about it as a thing that already exists. No-one is explaining it.
The first thread bugged by the way. That information is the very first line of my post. |

They're upset due to the measure that CCP has decided to use to refund the merc pack, namely you can get it back if you want too, but you have to be reset to do so. In some people's opinion(and CCP's) this is the fairest way, as it means people won't be getting any extra AUR or the sp they might have gotten through the use of boosters. In short it prevented people from getting twice the amount of SP for the same amount of AUR. Other people see this as grossly unfair and CCP breaking their word, and that they should have refunded the merc pack/found a better solution.
In short, everyone would have been a lot happier, if CCP had been clearer on this issue, both in the merc pack description, and in the last few months of confusion.
Oh, it's THAT kind of drama. Yeah, I'm gonna stay away from this one.
Thanks. |

They took a massive **** on some peoples happiness with that one. It's not a proper loophole, until Chromosome, CCP planned to have a full character reset on launch accompanied by a refund of all merc packs and aurum, and the descriptions on the merc packs etc were written as such. The problem occurred when CCP decided to be nice to us beta folk and scrap the final launch reset, letting us keep all our SP etc after launch, the general understanding was that this also meant no further merc pack / aurum refunds, seeing as CCP would no longer be removing them or any benefits gained from them - but of course some people are just ridiculously self entitled and decided that they want CCP to give them extra stuff for no reason, f*cking over any players that didn't buy any merc packs in the process. The only solution to this issue that is fair to all players is the one CCP went with, give people the option to get their refund under the initial conditions, namely the previously planned reset. OOOOOOHHHH, NOW I get it!
This kind of explanation is what I was looking for!
