Can you give links to profiles? Exclude PvP players who get their main source of gold from making 50k hmcoins getting in the top places because that's not something that literally everybody could do.
You don't get it, when people mention new players is not about their vision on cost reduction, its about their overall vision on the grindfest they see they have to do in order to get max gear, which shouldn't be exclusive to credit card warriors btw, in other MMORPG I was maxed and never spent a cent, however thanks to me playing hundreds of players got geared and thousands of euros were spent by other players to pay me the gold, which is what should be in bns, a more fair system to everybody and not only to a small percentage of the playerbase like it is right now, making everybody who's not a whale go away from the game even before starting it.
Wrong again, grind was not designed to be something pleasurable, its designed so you get tired of doing it and shortcut it by throwing money into the game, if you can't see this clearly you're blind, and again gear should be accessible to EVERYBODY, not just whoever enslave his soul forever or whoever has the largest wallet.
Mind mentioning some of this ways of making gold? Again, maxed stuff should be for everybody, not just for who you think it deserves it.
Again wrong, money talks, if people would stop feeding them money they probably would start listening to our needs, but since they make milions in profit from us, even if its only 10% compared to the east market, its way enough to run the service, pay salaries and make earnings, same time they get presence in west market so why would they bother changing anything that works FOR THEM already.
And lastly Grimoir and don't take it personal or anything but I read you through this forum for years, you're known as the undercover nc employee, the white knight, etc, but I have a better theory, I think you dream one day they'll hang you a medal in this forum and hire you as moderator or community manager but that will not happen regardless how much you try hard to defend their company.
