    You are completely missing the point. Gold means nothing when someone's "word" is broken. Those of us who actually spent time, and some money, to attain these "rare" and "unique" items have continuously watched as STS gives in to bring in new players, when the game would have thrived by simply keeping the game updated and fresh. These items no longer distinguish player "generations" and the ability to trade them now opens a new door to scams and further market control by those with the most gold.

    I am certain the PvP whining is a big part of this because the ring argument only applies there and not in PvE, correct?

    Just another reason why I will never come back to play.

    Hey Crim!

    I do like that the update ends all disillusion with a bang, that they didn't exclude founder or anything cause this way it is clear that you are right, there is nothing exclusive or rare about it

    IMO playing now feels like watching a remake of a show you used to love it is the same somehow but it doesn't feel like it at all

    I prefer them being open and saying 'trade everything, nothing matters' to the slow poisonous state it was before

    And for PvP yeah all changes are for PvP if there was something for pve it would address that maps are empty as hell but I guess farmers are less vocal about stuff

    It's not like al where mostly everything has always been tradeable. Nice that it screwed the black market some (not completely btw) but it sucks that anyone could look like me after years that being my reward for playing well for so long.
    After the gold influx from xmas the things I could sell are worth so little.
    Glad I jumped ship a while ago lol
    My friend, your reward is the absolute respect from everyone involved in Pocket Legends, both in-game and on forums. This cannot be bought or taken away. Not to mention that it goes beyond the game.

    The same goes for Crimson. And others.

    Sure, broken promises suck. And it sucks that anyone can look like you now. But in my opinion, it sucks even more when people can look like you having obtained all gear in the black market.

    Finally, I also believe that there should be some sort of official recognition for valuable community members like you, who have supported non-stop the game since they joined and are always helpful, positive and constructive. Even to complete strangers - like myself when I first joined the forums. But again, this is just my opinion.

    Nope, actually, lil' PO, you were trying to point out an inconsistency in my statements. That's why you quoted both of them in your last comment. But it's ok, we all make mistakes. The good news is that I'm always willing to forgive them

    Selfishness and self-gratification is the reason why oldies keep on complaining about the latest update.

    1. Who really cares? If you want to keep your old vanities, keep them.

    2. I heard you can only get 2 from Prince, idk about unlimited. L1 3pc rings are a huge problem though.

    3. Free isn't the right word, but I guess this is an issue. STS is hunting down acc buyers the best they can.

    4. Same as the first "issue". Who really cares? Just go and play. I'm friends with oldgens and newgens, and none of them really give a crap about who played longer. What matters is we're all playing now.

    Also have you seen how many people are online? This is a great step for PL.

    Honestly, I do understand why they're upset. As someone who started in 2010, I really do. However, I tend to agree with you. I think these updates are benefiting the game as a whole, and they're focusing more on themselves and what they've lost. They need to broaden their perspective a bit, I'd say. But again, I do understand the frustration. It sucks to work hard and earn something only to have it made available to everyone. A broken promise is tough to justify, even in a game. Though, personally, I'd be chill with them breaking promises all day if PL got improved with each broken promise.

    Bad idea or not. This update is set in stone and far from irreversible. Do the best with what you got is my honest humble opinion.

    Totally agree and I'm one of them. Having founders was a big advantage before this update, but now can anyone have the same gear as I do. Despite this, I have to admit this is a great update for the game itself. So overall, I am positive to the changes.

    The problem has been there hasn't been any better items released after Founder's etc. I think you should always be able to get the best possible gear whenever you start to play the game. I like the idea of rewarding old players, but maybe give things that does not change gameplay such as titles etc?

    I really don't want to be selfish at all. I'm glad there's a lot of players playing the game and how vanities are revolving around the game. This displays things that you never saw around that were stashed inside people's inventory. Earlier I saw someone wearing a DROID Antenna, something I haven't seen for years! This was not my initial problem, it's just I think there should be some reward for spending time earlier in the game compared to now. I spent money and a lot of time capping running boring lost valley for hours trying to level after I ran out of plat. I just wish that was worth more as its literally going for 100k or less in cs. Regardless I am glad they found a way to bring back tons of players to the game!

    No *insert passive agressive nickname* , once again I was disagreeing with your hyperbole that exclusivity "killed or is killing" pl

    Should be clear by my actions that I believe all the integrity associated with any of our no-trade items went out the window the very second the first PL account was bought/sold on the black market.
