I didn't miss it all. He is complaining that somebody else is able to price gouge. Items sell for what someone is willing to pay for them. If players are willing to pay that much for these items...it isn't gouging. It's called market economics. If you can't afford, or think someone is charging too much...the simple solution...do not buy them. It's not like we won't have the chance to buy them, it may just take a little longer.
I did what you did and haven't heard anything either.
. Don't worry harmless mistake, I still wuv ya.
Finally someone who isn't a sheep (hmm). People don't just suck it up, do something about it.
Agree. I would have already called.
I understand what you are saying, but you have to realize; we are talking about two entirely different things here.
I know its not a good comparision, but it was the best I could come up with off the top of my head at work. What I was trying to say is Bad Karma will ALWAYS come back and bite ya in the ass HARD. Unless you're a politician and for some reason they seem immune...Maybe evil can't harm evil LMAO!!
I am soooooo sorry. I won't make the same mistake again. AND you are from Oklahoma???. . . ABOO sweetie I'm a girl-person
My sentiments too.
Hello DevilsOwn,
If EA would FREAKIN FIX THEIR SH%#@! then it wouldn't be an issue either... that's simple too... and what they are getting PAID FOR!
How do you know? Do you know what the issues are that is holding this up? Do you know exactly what it takes to correct the problem?
You still just don't get it do you Rico?
I Don't, Dingus!!!
I'm just sayin is all! This was supposed to be something that WAS supposed to be available to all of us. They put the tokens up and took them down the same day because they screwed up and we're left waiting for what... a month?...2 months?... 6 months?... a year maybe?
I think alot of us feel the way you describe.
There is no God in UO...la
They've basically been ignoring us for 2 years. On that note, any of us (myself included) who criticized Jeremy clearly put the blame on the wrong person. She's long gone and they still have no clue about PR. What to do? Keep cancelling accounts if unhappy. I'm back down to three now that the holidays are over and going to close another one. Not liking my shard now anyways.I think alot of us feel the way you describe.
Rarely in the 11+ years that I have played UO have I actually felt anger, true anger at something that has been forced upon us as a player base. Sure I've been upset when they changed this or removed that. However, the disaster that the 11th Anniversary Items has turned into has made me livid. Never have I felt more like the step child than during this.
But the anger I feel is because they have refused to keep us informed on what is going on. They have downright refused to field the weekly questions that have been asked. I cannot begin to understand why they have chosen to ignore us.
I personally have never thought that it was the Community Relations person who should be held responsible. Possibly not the Devs either. I'm sure both answer to someone higher up. I just can't imagine why they would chose to ignore us knowing full well that they have to come here and take the flack. That is why it confuses me so much that they ignore a question asked of them EVERY week for months now.
Are you really that confused? You honestly don't get it? They don't care, they have new games to worry about.
And you win the quote of the day award.... well said.
See I don't believe they don't care, at least not the Devs. I believe they do care. Maybe the higher ups don't, I don't know about that.
The launch went a bit wrong (by bit, I mean, ARGHHH). The latest information I have is that the code store is retooling their backend to support the sales of the 11th items the way we want, and lift certain buying restrictions. The only reason we haven't given out more information is we're waiting for the information as well.
Let's say, for argument's sake that there are 30K accounts in the US and Europe that are still paying monthly fees. I personally don't know if that number is high or low but just assuming it's 30K accounts paying about $12 per month. That's about $360K of "Recurring Income" every month. To get that money EA/Mythic keeps servers running, pays for bandwidth, and pays employees in various departments including Development, Testing, Public Relations etc...
You had it almost right the first time!
Forgive me Draconi, but do you really believe that it takes 2-3 months to change a few lines of code on the backend, css, and html? Im not saying you are not being honest, I think you are getting told a line....The launch went a bit wrong (by bit, I mean, ARGHHH).

I can at least share *that* though!
Thank you VERY much for sharing what you can. Any information is appreciated far more than I think you realize.The launch went a bit wrong (by bit, I mean, ARGHHH).

Yeah, but this one is just as truthful and more fuh, uh funnier.....
PLEASEHoping beyond hope there will be Tokuno dye tokens.
No no no, don't tell them to do that right now then it will be another 6 months before the rest of us can get them, IF, by that time we are still interested.
