I saw the announcement and had to say something today.
I like the idea of rewarding the players. Maybe there should be different levels of VIP.
I have bought way over $100 easily on PL and AL and personally feel bad to be called VIP with people that spent less, or just maxed out their character.
Should I be in the same category as someone with less?
Just something to think about.
This is not a priority for me, just keep making good games. The VIP tag is just an incentive.
Cheers
The VIP's dont need to be greedy! They have already got much more than the lower classes, anyway.
This is a kind, leg up the ladder, from STS, to the ones that need it, if they want to accept it. As SamHayne said, I have used this kind offer to level up a different character, as my main was already at the level cap. So there is something in this for all of us.
It is good to see STS showing that they still care about the vast majority of players who are not Elite, Platinum rich.
But, just a question to clarify for me. All that play that weekend will be getting the XP bonus, whether they use it or not? Because, doesn't the XP apply to our Pets if not us? So we could level up some pets that need it, right? Or, am I wrong?
Thanks for the event, anyway!
Psycho, you are missing the point. This is not about rewarding VIP's. It is a chance for the ones that aren't VIP elite to catch up with their levels if they want to. Lets face it if you are VIP then you don't need any help do you?Quote:

I'm going to have to hop on the Sam train on this one. This gives you a chanes to level pets. I would consider myself a AL "big spender" and I would say everything I have purchased is an "award" it self. Example, "Yeah, i dropped blank amount of money so I can buy blank" that item you just bought is literally the return investment. Saying that, STS doesn't "have" to give us jack for free.
I totally agree with this statement. That was the reason for my post :]Quote:

What if you spent over $2,000 on this game :/ that's what I consider vip....still nothing. ... :( this doesn't help me at all.....has sts ever thought about having different "vip" classes..it would work good with concept of the game too with the chests.for example
Bronze vip :spent$ 25-$99
Silver vip. : spent $100-$499
Gold vip. : spent $500-$999
Mythic vip : spent $1000-$2000
ARCANE VIP : SPENT OVER $2000
Your rewards from sts would be based on this level....I think this would help reward those higher paying customers and feel they are gr tting something....and be given specific item , vanity, weapon, pet, that you can only get from being in this level.....even bronze would get exclusive items that non playing players wouldn't get... I guarantee you you will get more people paying more money if they see me walking around with a grizzly bear with 30+ str, 20% damage, healthregen, mana regen, etc.... people would drive for that incentive, putting more money in sts pocket
You got "nothing" for your $2,000? Should have gotten at least 180,000 platinum...Quote:
