Even if I didnt want condiments I would be upset that someone who I had already engaged in business with had attempted to rip me off.

They actually charge for that in some countrys, obviously not as much but still charge for it.

They're banking on your addiction to this game and attempting to exploit that addiction to rip you off. Doesn't it seem like a drug dealer, a little bit? Drug dealers aren't your friends.

That would be fine. If I bought a 4 dollar sandwich and they charged me 50 cents for extra ketchup I might say "never mind" but I wouldnt feel like they tried to abuse me.

I would not be upset, I just wouldn't by ketsup.
If your so emotionally fragile that this would actually upset you, I think you may have some serious issues and should probably go see a shrink.

What difference does it make, either way you are not buying it. At the end of the day no one is standing with a gun to anyones head forcing them to buy anything, can't see what the fuzz is all about.
Especially as if you read the forums a day before patch no one was loading station environment not to mention how evil and bad the vanity items for cash was, now all of the sudden the same items are to expensive ... go figure.

The analogy doesn't apply here. But, if you changed it to this:
You could get your regular red ketchup at no extra charge BUT you could also elect to pay $50 and get some "amazing" neon-blue ketchup instead.
Would you be upset if the neon-blue ketchup was being offered?

The analogy works fine because the only important element is that its an extra which costs the company only a small amount relative to the primary product.

McDonalds is there only company I was sure would be in essentially every players country(there could well be others I just didnt know.).
But I do suppose the condiments vary.

If there was some kind of bizarre game played within macdonalds that gave out fake currency, and we all had the option to use that to buy ketchup, i would look at people saying the only way to get ketchup is to spend 50 real world dollars like they had an extra chromosome.

If muckdonalds ketchup gets all over your e-clothes can you charge them $180 for a new outfit, or would they need a $99 license to send you e-money for your new eve outfit. Even then, would the door to the bathroom open so you can at least clean up. ~~~

I support this thread.
This is a ****ing scam by CCP and nothing else... The fact they're not responding makes me believe that this was a calculated move and they knew exactly how wrong it is what they're doing.
Go DIAF CCP.

Ketchup sucks, so does catsup. Never had ketsup.
I have no use for it so they can charge whatever they want and I wouldn't care, same with pointless monocles.

Maybe your drug dealer isn't.
Seriously though, this **** is indeed bananas, and I wouldn't be suprised to see the news hitting all the gaming blogs within the week and generating a LOT of negative press. CCP will have to reduce prices; I really don't see them selling enough $50 monocles to make up for the bad press otherwise.

What a special little flower Ghoest is everyone.. using his troll-fu to fabricate his own special little thread on an existing threadnaught in such a manner that he blinds everyone to his own personal jealousy, bitterness, envy of not getting something he obviously wants.
Clearly.. if you didn't want it.. you wouldn't care to have spent the time to expose your disgust.
Nice attempt with the troll-fu tho.
So what is it you find too expensive that you really want badly, Ghoest?
Honesty is gold.. like honestly people, when its all said and done.. no one is going to give a **** what you people look like in the game. No one is going to remember. No one cares. **** CCP over for being a business that is doing what a business does if you want.. jealousy and envy is what is making most of you mad tho.
All aboard the consumerism train.. next stop, CCP's installment of Toys'r'us.. Trolls'Yo'Face.
Kudos CCP.. remember, they mad cause they want but can't have yet. It is their fault for being angry over something they do not need.
Envy.. its not a drug, its a sin. ---------------------------------------- Treat the EVE markets like you are its Pimp.. it is your 'willing' employee to fondle n use n abuse as you please. |
