Ban the Midas Touch

[Soundlesskill]

I agree, you really need rich plat spender friends to reach the leaderboards?

I know a for a fact I'll never get that. Luckily a guild helpe me get the title or I'd have missed out ib lb banner yet again for an impossible achievement. Arcane achiev..

[lovetrianglee]

100% agree i think all gold ap's shd be removed. Thats all,,, There would be no reason left for borrowing gold

[Pandamoni]

I think that the AP was introduced as an incentive to open more crates. If there is a chance of looting a staff you can sell for 60m gold and a few arcane pets for another 40m, you're much more likely to keep popping the crates in order to get them to get so much gold you can get that AP. at least thats my assumption. I'm not saying its right, just thinking abt why stg introduced this AP.

I also like the devious poster's suggestion for more kill AP's. I'm almost at 90k kills and I would totally grind to get the 100k or 200k ap. it would give me something attainable and fun to work towards.

Send me a request too I prefer a fun game over wealth IGN:Purestealth

Keep the achievement, make it 0 AP points.

Those that have it can keep the title. Anybody else has no reason to want the achievement. All this achievement has caused is grief for other players.

Also, the same should go with goldfinger.


EDIT:

Anyone who asks me from now on and pesters me about after I've said no will just go on my ignore list. I encourage anyone else to do the same.

[afrobug]

Totally agree with this Jon. Only way to really call this as achievement is if you alone, without any help were able to get this much gold. Scamming good hearted players for the sake of having the title doesn't justify it being an achievement. Pointless IMO.

[Ocelz]

Hope devs see this and think bout make it pointless achvmnt.. Coz if we got scammed, they already do nothing to help us. :/

[Emmacheese]

just so sad this happened to such great people. <3

Even at 0 ap, some people will want it.

^^^ This guy... what a joke

Asked me to join guild just to scam a member a few hours after he joind, and i asked around found out he did that before

Now hes coming here to talk about anti scamming... gross. Im not big on flaming people in forums but the irony of his post is giving me a head ache.

Back on topic, i dont have a problem with the Midas achievement, the problem is within the players and their ability to get away with scamming, no one can stop greed and an ap like this will bring out the worst of some people, sadly.

Long as people who just take the gold and vanish get away with it, we're simply not ready for this type of ap imo. Surely there's room for more pve aps instead.

[Zeus]

Even at 0 ap, some people will want it.

Yes, they will WANT it.

However, the game is no different without the ap. They can still get on leaderboards and everything. There is no reason for it then unless pure greed.

So, those that are asking for it will be a clear sign that they are being greedy and you should stay AWAY!

[Ebezaanec]

The lengths people travel for meaningless colorful pixels simply astonishes me..

I personally would never care about that AP.. All those dust-collecting gold won't "buy" me true friends at all. Friends are so much more valuable.

Honestly, without my buddies, I would have to actually think of a reason to pick up my device and actually play.

The 0 Ap with title I disagree...


Scammers don't care about Ap Points.Just Money.
We've all are trying to avoid scam as there are an increase of scam lately
I strongly agree with Jon that Spacetime Games should take the AP of.
All they want is wealth as I wrote on my other post.
If they keep it they should:
Take the title off
Give 0 Ap

I've never been a fan if gold
I'm trying my best to earn as much gold as possible I only have a measly 3k


I suggest that:
The filthy rich Title stays As King said it can be farmed in a few weeks for some people.
Gold finger and Midas touch title goes

 

Take Midas touch and Gold finger Title removed.

EDIT:Just realised I got the more thanks of this thread than any other

Funny to hear this from you. Frankly, with your hopping in and out of the guild without having given any reason you are one of the reasons why trust between people fades away.

I heard that one of our officers booted you today. I remember you used to be a nice person and I wonder what happened with you or your account. No, in fact, I don't care at all.

Btw, where is your I-can't-call-the-name sorcerer?

[steven_soj]

Is nice Jon good job

[karrdath]

I strongly agree with john

Just a scammer, he admited it i got screen shots. Ignore him

+1

The AP was implemented after a suggestion on the forums about it. That said, I agree that it would be a good idea to get rid of it again. It would clearly prevent one of the worst possible scams in game.

I remember devs stating that Arcane eggs had to be hatched to get the achievement, in part to prevent scamming of such an expensive item. Here we're talking of several times the value of such an item, and that's no problem?

So yeah, definitely sounds like a good idea to get rid of the achievement, at least in its current form.

[gumball3000]

Agreed with the op, this should remove the reason to give anyone trusted or not such a big amount of gold.

[keikali]

There is no need for the Goldfinger or The Midas Touch AP IMO.

Filthy rich is fine enough. Thanks.
