Instead of freaking out you should read the Patch Notes more carefully. They are account bound for a week only.
The problem is, "do we still have the same lucky item that we have now for next week? Are you sure the lucky spin still there next week? a week of waiting is not thing, but a week of waiting with uncertainty is something else. For example, when you boss called you for a private meeting next Monday, would you or would you not worry? If your company is making profit and you have a good relationship with your boss, you have nothing to worry about. However, if nothing is known, I am doubting you can sleep several nights before the meeting.
It is the Development Team's fault for not having this well planned, now you guys punish the players by banning them for being greedy. With the new Casino (Lucky spin) implemented AND the given FREE spin wow so nice freebies (you think anything is really free in this world? It's a trap to make you buy more or make you stuck with a ninja suit without a ninja hat), now look again, who is the one being greedy here?
So sad to see people fall for this scam, gambling their real life money and didn't get what they pay for. Are we ready to face the next wave of troll and got our ass kicked?
Hm...durability boosting hammer?
level up candy?
rare drop boost medal (more Epic drops)?
more overpowered Clan War Weapon (so you have to do the venus/pluto boosting all over again)?
and then a bunch of "NEW" Ultimate 200 Item Mall Weapon that can make your Epic go sleep?
From my own personal experiment, I wouldn't doubt the DEV Team's capacity for doing something without using their brain. I wouldn't doubt your prediction neither. They seem to practice ass kick lately especially toward honest players. Usually, we get one ass kick per a week. This week is special, we got 2. As for me, I got 3. First, i stuck with the account bound lucky items in wrong char. Second I stuck with massive lucky coins and mask in the wrong account. Third, Zep refuses to help transfer those item by stating,
Those items were never GIFTABLE, they were trade-able in-game and those were issues were resolved in 2 days of the patch release. I'm talking about items that have been account bound, but giftable for months and years.
What were never GIFTABLE items and what were resolved in 2 days of patch release? The mask certainly gift-able and trade able before. The coin is perfectly legitimate trade-able before Jun 23rd, 2011.
Unwanted Lucky Spin items can be broken down into Lucky Spin coins which can be dragged into the coin slot in the Lucky Spin window to convert the coins back into additional spins, 1 spin is given per 5 coins inserted. The Lucky Spin coins are also tradeable.
If the coins are legitimately trade-able before. Why can't GM and DEV Team help moving them to the correct account? From their collective statement, I think they belittle us a lot. At least in my theory, the reason, the GM and DEV Team say whatever they want and do whatever they see fit without any of our consent, is because they see us as some kids trying to get a freebie. Little that they know, some players actually have higher education than DEV team and GM do. It might sound a bit rude, but it is the truth.
hopefully you have seen Office Space and can understand the reference there.
The respect isn't given; it has to be earned. Even if DEV Team and GM force players to show them the respect, players may smile in front, but as soon as DEV Team and GM turn away, a fart in the face is waiting. I am sure it is hard to earn the respect, and I am sure it is difficult to lower yourself to other players, but that is what you must embrace if you want to change anything.
I think I'm just saying it for my own personal satisfaction
No but for real now. If it would require me to dance naked on the street while wearing a pointed hat that sais 'Idiot' and singing a parody on the national anthem, just to have LadyPsyber remove herself from this forum for good? I'd kneel and beg for the opportunity.
Although you dislike LadyPsyber, but you still have to admit she has many good points. Otherwise, both GM and CM already shut her up by banning her account. Like it or not, LadyPsyber already has the respects of many players while the DEV Team, GM, CM couldn't.
