If you dump all your isk into speculation around this blog and lose it all because we changed something again, you have only yourself to blame. Always speculate at your own risk. There it is. And I assume CCP stated that? Oh that's right. I didn't think so. Where do you get the tenacity to troll on the same messages over and over again when CCP Devs already admitted that the reissuance of Ishukone & Women's executor (Red/Gold) was a complete mistake? Click devblog, read devblog, remove foot from mouth. I am not going to waste my time searching for your precious devblog information because it specifically states that the information pertains to the "devblog." We are not talking about devblog here. The shirts were never mentioned in the Devblog. These were promotional items given and CCP already admitted their mistake in their reissuance. Why do you keep writing nonsensical posts? Great job trying to support your argument with something that has nothing to do with what we are discussing here.
I think the point they were trying to make is that certain parts of that blog pointedly refer to speculation in general (bolded the above for clarity).
Your situation has a specific reassurance, but the above is a good thing to keep in mind for the future. To carve a successful niche for yourself in EVE you need to be able to out sell, out produce, out fight,-á out run, or out wit your competitors. If you can do none of the above, your only option is to complain on the forums that somehow you are at a disadvantage using the exact same tool set-áas the rest of the player base. |

Inability to connect the dots on the forum? The CCP already admitted that it was a mistake on its part to reissue these vanity items. What part do you not understand?
Awesome job on reading the last 5 posts of the entire 31 page thread and spitting out nonsensical ramblings regarding "my inability to connect the dots." I understand that the last time you read a book was Dr. Seuss'. I know it is pretty tough to read a 31 page posting, but do not despair. You can do it! |

I couldn't care less if CCP admitted or not. Your tantrum is what made it funny and that is what I came here for. I'd kill kittens and puppies and bunnies I'd maim toddlers and teens and then more |

I don't think you can handle the magnitude of handling big wealth. Just like those folks who either kill themselves or are plagued by marital problems after winning million dollar lotteries, I fear for a similar fate when i give you my "stuff." There is a reason why poor people stay poor. I suggest that you be content with whatever you got. |

Speculate? I made reasonable assumption that CCP will never reintroduce these items via alternative venues for 1/30th of the market value to the general populous. Usually, a reputable company such as Blizzard, means what they claim when an ingame item is advertised as a "one-time offer." I made a logical assumption that seeing how CCP is one of the most reputable game company in the industry, it would hold similar stance. |

Surely, this can't be possibly funnier than your Dear Leader, enticing thousands of players to encourage a person to commit suicide? I was laughing my ass off while seeking your Kim Jung Il equivalent's resignation. Do not worry. My so called "temper tatnrums" is fueled by 10,058 Goon tears. You keep up the great work with bumping this thread. |

The shirt was not advertised as a one-time offer as far as anyone has been able to tell. The one-time offer seems to have been 13 PLEX + free shirt, which is exactly the kind of deal you got (and also as far as anyone can tell, it remains one-time since it hasn't been repeated since). Well, except that you got 13 PLEX, a free shirt and a free coat.
Quote:It's not like YOU will be paying any extra dollars to CCP since you will generate most of your PLEX via ingame. GǪsee, there you go assuming things again. Just FYI, no PLEX can be generated in-game. As for those special offers, if people wait a few months, they will not get the same cheap deal, so of course they'll still pay for it. GÇ£If you're not willing to fight for what you have in GëívGëí you don't deserve it, and you will lose it.GÇ¥

When you buy an SA membership is part of the EULA that any use of proper grammar, punctuation and capitalization is prohibited? Or is it that it just happens that only thirteen year old text queens are the only people to sign up?

Except for the part where CCP has said exactly that they fully intended it to be a one-off item.

Don't worry though. I consider it a win every time you prove yourself unable to respond to the points being made, especially since it should be trivially easy for you to do so if you thought for a second that you had a leg to stand on.

Aight Tippia and Evil S.A., I need to go to sleep so I can go on a trip with my girlfriend tomorrow. I expect you guys to keep this thread alive and bumped on the front page of the forum during my absence. Keep up the excellent work for the next two days.
Once again, we are greatly appreciated for your hard work. Once all our issues are addressed by CCP, I will make appropriate compensations for all your hard work. |

I understand that your insecurities force you to see things the way you do. To misinterpret and be intentionally obtuse in your understanding of what is written.
CCP has stated that the original ad you are whining about was to be interpreted as they have stated over and over again.
Give it up and admit it's you who is wrong and not CCP.

The simple fact remains: no-one has been able to show what the initial offer said and if the OP's assumptions were, in fact, at all reasonable. What CCP has stated since doesn't really matter that much, because it was the initial offer that the OP responded to. If he was right, then good for him, but whether it was actually reasonable to make that assumption is a completely different matter.
The OP could have garnered a whole lot more support and massively less ridicule if he had been able to provide this tiny, but very significant, titbit. GÇ£If you're not willing to fight for what you have in GëívGëí you don't deserve it, and you will lose it.GÇ¥
