VoidMalign Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 I apologize if I didn't understand correctly how this system works. Correct if I'm wrong, the in-game mail service is behind a real life money paywall? Unless you buy ncpoints, you cannot access the mail to send or receive stuff to/from other players? If so, who's 'bright' idea was this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Preacher26 Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 I believe that is for a cross server mail service which is not even possible in many games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brainy Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 You must go to an NPC to send mail. You can receive mail anywhere you are though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eonni Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 Er, no. You cant send mail unless you've bought nccoins. That is what i saw also, when i tried to send items to my other char that is on the same server Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoyerZ Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 No! He's correct. You cannot use mail if you haven't charged ncoin at least once. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FreyrBlackwood Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 You cannot send mail unless you have charged ncoins atleast once regardless if it was before BnS release or after, but you can still recieve mail just fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good to hear that receiving mail is still available, but what reasoning is behind blocking sending mail unless you invest real life money in the game? As to where did I 'hear' this. I tried to send a mail to my friend, and it said that I cannot do so unless I buy the ncpoints first. She tried to send me an item too and was met with the same problem.

Keawen Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 Probably gold sellers measure for the sending part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kisangi Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 The "wall" so to speak is to keep the mass hoard of gold sellers/bots from having an easy avenue with which to peddle their wares. It makes it a lot harder to buy/receive and sell gold if you have to plunk down even more capital first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Savara Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 It's for gold sellers. The thing is this, in some games, you can't even chat until you have 48 hours in, some money in, or something like that. That's how bad gold sellers have gotten in some of the games.

Shana Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 Gold sellers can still trade tho at lvl 15. I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vigorot Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 If this is true, while a little unconventional and can be off putting to many people I can see how this can serve as a deterrent to keep players from being robbed... or rather at least reduce the amount.

They could've at least made it possible to send mail on maximum level since I doubt goldsellers would level up just for the sake of sending money when they can just trade it on level 15.

Nitpikk Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 i like how everyone defends this as "its to stop gold sellers" .. really?? they could just put a restriction on how much GOLD a character can send based on their level?? not restrict items being sent.. theres a million and 1 ways to prevent gold sellers via mail this one here.. is PURELY to make more $$ for the company.

SoyerZ Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 I don't think it's because gold sellers..They can still trade. I mean, it makes the game sort of unplayable for free users who can't even transfer itens from their own account. This game doesn't even have a shared bank. basically, if you pay you can play the game, if you don't? deal with it or quit the game LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hazriel Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 Against gold sellers? I don't think this would prevent them from doing so. They can just charge the smallest amount of ncoin one time and get back their money fast with doing busines. Since if i understand you right, receiving a mail is free, so the buyer don't need to charge ncoin to "trade" with the goldsellers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmoe33 Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 Yea this in no way hinders gold sellers i mean ive heard that there are krap tons of em anyway so its obviously not working, this seems like a bs cash grab like wtf i didnt even know about dis till now....
