What about adding the Founders Helm for Android users that started when it was first made available to them? I think I got this the day of or the day after it was released. Just wondering.
Thanks.
EDIT: I just realized from when I opened this thread to when I posted, more than 10 pages were added. So if its already been suggested... my bad.

I suppose I am in the .0001% then. I have never paid money to play an app game before, this was my first. I'm the head of my household not a child and self-employed professional, and here's my thoughts on the matter.
First off, I give kudos to the removal of powerleveling. Level 50-55 players with lvl 12 skill are not pleasant. I am very glad PL has enjoyed the success it has. Could the purchase of only XP pots cost plat?? The tank and damage pots are at times necessary due to the flighty nature of players in pick up games in the sewers.
As to the main spine of the game being free:
So when you paid for something that is now free, it's not uncommon to feel like you..... at the least, made a poor investment.
I believe that feeling could be lessened by a different form of gratitude (ie half the plat returned, or 3 free premium rings as our way of saying thanks)
Yet that being said, I do agree the game was worth what I paid, even though however the shield of gratitude seems a poor gift for those of us who don't pvp. I will not be quitting the game, but I am a little disappointed with it ATM.
This also changes one dynamic of the game. When you were in Sewers, you knew that the players there had at least some measure of commitment to make it that far (they also used plat to get that far), now that is no longer the case. I have studied this game because I put actual money into it, so I wanted to get the most for my money. Where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
Would you consider making Balefort Sewers still a plat only campaign? Would you consider allowing all pots minus xp to be purchasable by gold again?
I don't mind the grinding without xp elixirs, I can see a fair case for that. I would certainly appreciate any thought you give to those suggestions. And I'm NOT saying this was an epic fail or anything of the sort. I greatly respect how you reworked GCD to make it appealing to play. I love this game (even with the latest changes), and have a few different ideas for what I can do to help what I hope will be many more new players filling the towns and levels.

Hey the updates cool but just wanna say, not cool that only Iphone users get the helm. I've been here since it was avail on droid. I think you should include droid users who joined the month yiou made it avail on android...just saying. Plat for elixirs, okay, but pricing is too high.
Really you have to be a certain level to go in a dungeon? This should be fixed and elixrs with plat. I loved this game till they decided to put gcd and minimum level for dungeons .
wow this is great! now i got a shield that will wreckkkk
but my dreams of reaching 56 are now crushed >.<
Skyler, about the shield, I agree 100%. It sucks. It is ugly and has poor stats, especially for long-time players to which it is geared. Oh well. I don't care.
Secondly, just because I reference the term "flamer", does not mean I am speaking about everyone.
About the business-side, Spacetime Studios is switching to a model that supports renewable income. It makes good fiscal sense. Additionally, as Morawk pointed out in his most-recent post, it helps new players (customers) get involved with the game long-term and hopefully, spend more money in the long run. Personally, I hope it succeeds so they stay in business for years, if not decades/centuries, to come. If you enjoy the game, you should support the people who bust their butts to supply it. You should appreciate their forward-thinking innovation in bringing such a quality MMO to mobile devices.
In the end, growing the audience of the game will lead to more money for more developers to build more content and more features. You will benefit whether you agree or not.
Skyler, I hope you understand that I am not "calling anyone out" here. I am personally satisfied from what I have seen that Spacetime Studios works hard to collectively make us happy. They are not seeking to rob or cheat you or me, but for a way to do business that allows them to continue to do business. What is wrong with that?
As far as the past goes, you and I purchased and spent platinum so the developers could make a living. These are people who ultimately have families and mortgages and car payments and such. They can keep my money for a job well done. I would do it all again in a heartbeat.
I agree that week shield is no "thank you " for all the plat I would rather have my plat back not that stinking shield....or make it worth the plat!!!!
hey guys do you still get the shield if your banned?
You paid the plat in order to have the campaigns...the shield is just a bonus item they decided to throw in. If you bought a new car to get to and from work, and they gave you a coupon to a store you never go to as a bonus, do you go back to the car dealership and demand your money back? No.
I will agree with you that the stats could have been more useful.

This is a good point, I will give you that. But I think they are trying to discourage any sort of power-leveling period, with friends helping or not....note the emphasis on the word "think".
Les has an excellent point, at least as far as non-hosted games.
