Ranger 1 Amarr Paragon Fury Cascade Imminent	Posted - 2011.06.29 14:52:00 - [1] Originally by: Jade Constantine Originally by: Revan Neferis On a serious note, yes It's indeed a flaw and i think ccp should change the description of the item to match the immersion they want to portray with the product. No they should release an uncommon version at 24,000 aurum to differentiate the street-corner chavs from the townies. But they can't do that!!! It would destroy the game!!! ===== The world will not end in 2012, however there will be a serious nerf to Planetary Interaction.

And to make it cool by acting all edgy about having one. That only those with balls have will have one therefore its cool. Your not hardboiled without a monocle. I cant be the only only one that has seen the rash of monocle threads started by monocle owners. CCP give you guys a free monocle to advertise and force the "its cool to have one" meme. There are also the rationalizing away the costs threads too. CCP spin control out in full force. Edit: cant forget all these, "MTs not so bad" threads either. Seems this is the PR strategy until the CSM where they tell us they are doing MT no matter what. Agreed, i think its highty suspect that these people are posting how cool it is to have a monocle, there either complete idiots or dont mind being milked as a cash cow by CCP! Even though all they spent was some spare ISK, to have a bit of fun with... ===== The world will not end in 2012, however there will be a serious nerf to Planetary Interaction.

I'm not the one crowbaring a camcorder into my head feel superior. Bitter is at best ... relative. Or to put it a bit more in perspective, you aren't paying virtual money to put a virtual monocle on your virtual character to poke fun at other players in an internet spaceship game. Either choice is a valid one, as long as which ever choice you make ends up in your having fun. ===== The world will not end in 2012, however there will be a serious nerf to Planetary Interaction.

Either choice is a valid one, as long as which ever choice you make ends up in your having fun. Fun is fun obviously and it is quite fun taking the mickey out of people spending virtual cash to put virtual monocles on their virtual characters virtual faces also. This much I have to admit Though I do think you guys should seriosuly consider promoting my tiered monocles suggestion from earlier - trolling lower ranked monocle owners would be pretty good fun also! Undoubtedly. I'll admit, when I first saw the pricing structure in the NeX store I got a bit tweaked. Then I read the responses to my posts from some of the more economy literate members of the community that pointed out that releasing some of the pricier items in their first release was quite probably a good idea, with the aim of keeping PLEX prices from jumping too sharply at first. Right after that I saw the Dev response that indicated that more reasonably priced items would be following shortly (along with some even pricier ones), so that dove tailed pretty nicely. So perhaps they were correct. It will be interesting to see what economy developes around these items. ===== The world will not end in 2012, however there will be a serious nerf to Planetary Interaction.

Yes, you read it right...look closely. They lose their eyebrow when they put that stupid piece of crap on. Oh my god its true ... Revan why did you shave your right eyebrow off! Okay, this sounds harsh, but did you just take a poke at someone for shaving off some of their characters hair? ===== The world will not end in 2012, however there will be a serious nerf to Planetary Interaction.
