Perfectly fair, considering all the factors involved. No way any person being serious could consider that fair. Alright, I was confused as to what exactly the OP was referring to. However, if you're saying it's unfair that CCP refuses to refund AURUM to people who spent it on things like skill boosters that have given them more SP than other players without requiring you to give up that SP, then you must not be being serious yourself.
You may want to check what Merc Pack customers are ACTUALLY asking for before complaining about Boosters.
The AUR refund offered specifically excluded Boosters. The requested refund of the Merc Pack specifically excludes Boosters.
We want the AUR back for things we bought that WEREN'T Boosters, and that DIDN'T give us extra SP, but may have saved us some ISK over time with fittings we otherwise would have spent ISK on.
There was no way for anyone, back when BPOs were 30 AUR each, to know that they would skyrocket in price like they have. If anyone stockpiled them at the time, they were crazy. I doubt there are going to be many people seeing the kind of stupid numbers CCP are afraid of - and if there are, by CCP's usual logic, "well played, risk paid off" should really be the appropriate response. |

This is not quite true. CCP announced (days?) prior that the BPO's would go up to about 300 or so each from 30. At that stage I had thought I would not bother. Then, 30 minutes before the DT that gave the price rises, they posted a new update that I was fortunate enough to see -- the prices were going up sometimes as high as 11,800 each. That gave a 30 minute opportunity based on the knowledge of an 11k price. So there was a way to know in advance, but for the high prices we see now, only 30 minutes advance warning.
There was no way to know, at the time, that they would go up to the 4000+ they are now, when we were told they would go up to maybe 300 or something.
There was also know way to know that we'd be getting a refund on them and buy them up in bulk so we can have huge piles of AUR to spend on whatever we want. |

How does that solve the issue of people who no longer want to be connected with the race that Dropsuit was for? |
