  • (Quote) You're right that selling names (or any in-game items, services, accounts, whatever) for real-world currency is against the rules and a bannable offense. Where things get a lot more grey, though, is selling names for in-game gold. Technic…
    in Server Merger name rules Proposal Comment by counterpoint August 2018
  • (Quote) I also don't remember a case where we've outright not gotten an update or feature as well, even in the past. So no, I don't think they can "choose" to not get a feature once it's in the build, exactly. I do know that, for exampl…
    in Future Updates Wrong Direction? Comment by counterpoint August 2018
  • (Quote) Well, the problem is that if you really push that front, there are lots of ways of solving this problem. For example, J-TERA is having a name-release at the end of August. But after the name-release, there's a period of about one month wh…

  • (Quote) It does say in the news post "(The policies for PC may be different than for consoles.)" so at least there is some hope. I'm not too worried about Console players being "jealous" because most of them won't be adversely …
    in Are you thinking about merging servers EME ? Comment by counterpoint August 2018
  • (Quote) Have they actually said anything yet about the details about the PC merger and name release? There's information about console, but AFAIK the information on PC is still TBD. At least I haven't seen anything posted anywhere yet. On consol…
    in Are you thinking about merging servers EME ? Comment by counterpoint August 2018
  • (Quote) This is basically the important point. As a time-limited thing, it makes sense since they don't have to worry about porting back anything. Just let it be "as is" for a limited time, and then patch it to the latest version and al…
    in A Serious Discussion about CLASSIC TERA Servers Comment by counterpoint August 2018
  • (Quote) Honestly, I don't think that would have worked. You'd have to then be able to make the case that the harm caused by this is equivalent to drugs or human trafficking, and therefore should be illegal in the same way, and... well, at least I …
    in Server Merger name rules Proposal Comment by counterpoint August 2018
  • (Quote) It's just different for each game. If you go on the forums for these games, you'll always find people with routing problems, and almost always it's "I'm not having a problem with it's just this one" -- because, for them, it is.…
    in How to play with that ping?? Comment by counterpoint August 2018
  • (Quote) This is a complete side-topic, but the forums are run by a third-party company (Vanilla Forums), and there seems to be some sort of bug/issue right now. I've noticed that if you refresh your browser after the sign-in process, it'll usually…

  • (Quote) I got into a debate with someone about this issue once. I was making your general argument (name selling is bad for customers and should be firmly forbidden), and the other party took the free market position. They argued basically this: …

  • (Quote) Yes, non-dyeable for Elin was since it was also in another bundle, but the non-dyeable for the bikini/golden speeders (for other races) wasn't.
    in What items do YOU want to see in the daily deals? Comment by counterpoint July 2018
  • Realistically, the amount they can do to fix ping spikes for people in Brazil is almost nothing. The problem is probably either at the ISP in Brazil, or in the connection between Brazil and the United States. EME can't call up any of these guys an…
    in How to play with that ping?? Comment by counterpoint July 2018
  • (Quote) I brought this up too. I suspect this is supposed to be in the "Dyeable Bikini and Golden Speeders Smart Box" but this wasn't on the daily deals (and neither was the non-dyeable one). It might be because this box does not work f…
    in What items do YOU want to see in the daily deals? Comment by counterpoint July 2018
  • (Quote) Although spending money on a game doesn't make you an investor, you are right. That is the ultimate responsibility of the consumer: to stop patronizing businesses that don't meet their needs and to ideally let them know why that is so they…
    in The aftermath of xigncode3 Comment by counterpoint July 2018
  • (Quote) Ultimately, knowing who to "blame" shouldn't really change anything, though. Let's say on the one hand you find out that every decision is centrally-managed by BHS and EME is literally powerless to do anything but what they're to…
