[18:40:10] [inferno @ 6]: were you in an accident?
[18:40:27] [wuffzel @ 6]: hmmm if you look at gc/$ ratio for haidir pass... rosto is still too cheap
[18:40:28] [Angler @ 6]: no, just unfortunate could not get emplyment

[18:42:56] [Aislar @ 6]: it wasn't bad
[18:43:16] [funfool @ 6]: the ingame price for rosto is crazy, for lower level players, can take weeks to earn enough .... then lose it in 5 min is no fun
[18:43:33] [wuffzel @ 6]: or in 5 seconds
[18:43:45] [wuffzel @ 6]: the time you are safe when enter a map ;p
[18:44:06] [Adamantinus @ 6]: one is safe 5sek when entering?

[18:44:12] [Aislar @ 6]: yes adam
[18:44:18] [Adamantinus @ 6]: nice to know ty
[18:44:28] [radu @ 6]: so you mean to tell me that people can play a game but they can't afford 5 usd a month for some entertainment?
[18:44:34] [wuffzel @ 6]: from the 5 seconds take 2-3 away from lagg
[18:44:35] [Aislar @ 6]: OMG radu
[18:44:38] [radu @ 6]: you mean those people never buy unnecesary items?
[18:44:46] [radu @ 6]: OMG what?
[18:44:50] [Aislar @ 6]: you look at this from teh wrong point of view
[18:44:52] [RAkAiN @ 6]: its a legitimate concern for any player radu, shoudl speak to people with a tad bit more respect
[18:44:55] [Aislar @ 6]: soem prefer to use gc only
[18:44:56] [Achilles @ 6]: $5/month is differnt then poofing 25 rostos in a month
[18:45:05] [Achilles @ 6]: than*
[18:45:07] [wuffzel @ 6]: radu is right...he pays all the stuff, so we cvan have fun
[18:45:10] [inferno @ 6]: You want them to be cheap tho
[18:45:13] [wuffzel @ 6]: can *
[18:45:16] [RAkAiN @ 6]: after lining your pockets for years and years, you should have already started treating this like a business
[18:45:16] [radu @ 6]: RAkAiN, who the fuck are you to criticize me?
[18:45:23] [inferno @ 6]: because the people converting Rostos -> GC will make you richer than shit
[18:45:28] [Jeff @ 6]: i've got 3 bots, that averages out to $5/month lol
[18:45:30] [Aislar @ 6]: oh lordy
[18:45:34] [inferno @ 6]: more people buy them, more money overall
[18:45:34] [radu @ 6]: what gives you that right?
[18:45:35] [RAkAiN @ 6]: as a customer myself, im speaking the truth
[18:45:49] [RAkAiN @ 6]: what gives me rights? being born gave me rights
[18:45:57] [starDark @ 6]: ^
[18:45:59] [radu @ 6]: oh, if you are a customer, ok, you have that right
[18:46:02] [RAkAiN @ 6]: im not saying anything bad, just pointing 1 little thing out
[18:46:15] [starDark @ 6]: did you seriously question the right to criticize?
[18:46:22] [starDark @ 6]: k lets globally shut the fuck up
[18:46:28] [Aislar @ 6]: no thsi is fun
[18:46:30] [radu @ 6]: well, everyone has the right to criticize
[18:46:36] [radu @ 6]: but so do I
[18:46:49] [radu @ 6]: you criticize me, I criticize you
[18:46:55] [Aislar @ 6]: radu i think all ppl are saying is the price of rosts INGAME, meaning gc, is just too high
[18:47:02] [RAkAiN @ 6]: yes..
[18:47:06] [Rabbitman @ 6]: radu 120-145 invance plx maybe we poof rostos for j00
[18:47:08] [Rabbitman @ 6]: <3
[18:47:09] [Wicky @ 6]: yep
[18:47:12] [inferno @ 6]: the bad part of that is people are hoarding them like crazy
[18:47:17] [radu @ 6]: yes, I know what people are saying
[18:47:19] [inferno @ 6]: wont let them go for anything
[18:47:20] [Aislar @ 6]: okay
[18:47:21] [radu @ 6]: it's a free market
[18:47:38] [radu @ 6]: stop paying for them in game, and the prices will go down
[18:47:42] [Jr_ @ 6]: how about this idea
[18:47:44] [Aislar @ 6]: hmmm
[18:47:52] [Jr_ @ 6]: i know we have talked about gold memberships
[18:48:13] [Jr_ @ 6]: make the rosto find chance higher for those who pay $5 a month for the membership
[18:48:21] [RAkAiN @ 6]: either way, those who DONT spend $ on rosto's do spend GC on them, keeping others buying from you
[18:48:21] [Jr_ @ 6]: take a look at sales over 12 months
[18:48:27] [Aislar @ 6]: oooooo
[18:48:30] [Aislar @ 6]: I kind of like that one
[18:48:34] [Rabbitman @ 6]: prefer $5/month and you do not need rosto to not drop
[18:48:40] [Aislar @ 6]: lol
[18:48:41] [Jr_ @ 6]: and if people like it change the game to a $5 membership a month
[18:48:44] [wuffzel @ 6]: EL has its big plus for giving all same chance
[18:48:57] [radu @ 6]: I don't liek that idea
[18:49:06] [starDark @ 6]: Don't like it either tbh
[18:49:13] [starDark @ 6]: Membership? YOLO
[18:49:21] [Marvin @ 6]: yeah... hard core fighters can lose several rostos a month. i know i have
[18:49:23] [inferno @ 6]: that seem slike a bandaid fix and would probably overall cost radu $
[18:49:49] [Rabbitman @ 6]: as far as rostos specifically go, adding a premium services npc like OL has would help
[18:49:51] [inferno @ 6]: All we need to drop rostos is a GC sink
[18:49:53] [inferno @ 6]: That's it
[18:49:57] [funfool @ 6]: all player should be treated equall
[18:50:01] [wuffzel @ 6]: we have a team of 5-7 daredevils for 120145...just waiting for the magic bleu spam
[18:50:01] [inferno @ 6]: if everyone in the game had 0GC it'd start all over again and it'd be ok
[18:50:04] [Rabbitman @ 6]: use haidir passes as premium currency
[18:50:05] [Wicky @ 6]: so we all cant enjoy playing evenly..
[18:50:11] [radu @ 6]: there you go
[18:50:12] [Rabbitman @ 6]: and you can buy rostos for 8 haidir passes...
[18:50:17] [Rabbitman @ 6]: or therm for 180...
[18:50:20] [starDark @ 6]: OL deals perfectly with $ <-> GC
[18:50:23] [Marvin @ 6]: all players are allowed to buy rostos from the shop... as far as i know
[18:50:27] [radu @ 6]: RM, why not for 10 passes?
[18:50:29] [starDark @ 6]: Buy platinum coins, constant price
[18:50:34] [starDark @ 6]: Use platinum coins to buy services
[18:50:38] [starDark @ 6]: or special items
[18:50:39] [Rabbitman @ 6]: but you get the idea..premium currency
[18:50:42] [radu @ 6]: how would that help though?
[18:50:47] [Rabbitman @ 6]: then only sell 1 item in shop (haidir passes)
[18:50:54] [Rabbitman @ 6]: then people use them to get w/e they want in game
[18:50:57] Special invasion, Save Iscalrith. People between 120-145 a/d that want to participate please report to Ilie in the MM Battle Hall no later than 20 minutes from now.
[18:50:58] [radu @ 6]: what would be the difference?
[18:51:03] [The_Punisher @ 6]: tyvm
[18:51:04] [wuffzel @ 6]: ty
[18:51:08] [Rabbitman @ 6]: say there are 500 haidir passes on bots but 0 rostos
[18:51:11] [lavp @ 6]: ty
[18:51:16] [Rabbitman @ 6]: helps game balance b/c people can buy haidirs to get rostos
[18:51:24] [radu @ 6]: but if someone can buy 500 haidir passes they can also buy rostos with them, no?
[18:51:29] [radu @ 6]: I mean for that money
[18:51:38] [Rabbitman @ 6]: the players who need the rostos arent the ones paying the $$
[18:51:44] [radu @ 6]: instead of 250 for passes, they can pay 250 and get 60 rostos
[18:51:48] [Rabbitman @ 6]: sot he people paying $$ buy whater will get them the most gc
[18:51:53] [Rabbitman @ 6]: by using premium currency
[18:52:02] [Rabbitman @ 6]: all shop items will have the same gc/$ rate
[18:52:12] [Rabbitman @ 6]: make sense?
[18:52:24] [radu @ 6]: won't that make the haidir passes go up even mor ein price
[18:52:37] [inferno @ 6]: the rostos have been static price for years
[18:52:40] [funfool @ 6]: not make sense in a free market
[18:52:40] [inferno @ 6]: that's not the problem
[18:52:47] [Aislar @ 6]: gc sink!
[18:52:48] [inferno @ 6]: the problem is there is too much flow of GC into the game and hardly any spent
[18:52:51] [Rabbitman @ 6]: possibly, but if you removed all other shop items it should be the same
[18:52:52] [inferno @ 6]: Double the NPC buy rate
[18:52:59] [inferno @ 6]: make it actually cost you something to buy from an NPC
[18:53:09] [Aislar @ 6]: if npcs bought for more, more gc out of game
[18:53:12] [radu @ 6]: ok, I am confused about something now
[18:53:13] [inferno @ 6]: create a gold invested daily that requires 100k+ a day to get something
[18:53:26] [radu @ 6]: 1. Peopel complain about how all the items are expensive (non shop items)
[18:53:34] [radu @ 6]: 2. people complain there is a need for a new gold sink
[18:53:55] [inferno @ 6]: the only reason the prices of non shop items are high is because of the current GC/$ rate
[18:54:05] [inferno @ 6]: there is so much GC in the game that it's driving prices up
[18:54:11] [Aislar @ 6]: less gc prices of rosts would go down b/c they wouldn't be affordable at current price
[18:54:12] [radu @ 6]: how many people in EL can say: I have more GC than I can use?
[18:54:13] [inferno @ 6]: It costs more to make stuff these days then to buy them
[18:54:19] [inferno @ 6]: so unles syou just have a passion for crafting
[18:54:20] [Aislar @ 6]: i can't
[18:54:21] [inferno @ 6]: it's pointless
[18:54:23] [Rabbitman @ 6]: I can atm radu
[18:54:27] [Aislar @ 6]: shutup rabbit
[18:54:29] [inferno @ 6]: what are you using it on?
[18:54:29] [Rabbitman @ 6]: no nexus removals on market to buy :<
[18:54:29] [Aislar @ 6]: :>
[18:54:32] [inferno @ 6]: to buy from other players?
[18:54:39] [inferno @ 6]: that GC just gets invested in other players
[18:54:41] [inferno @ 6]: and the GC rotates
[18:54:46] [inferno @ 6]: hardly any of it is spent on NPC
[18:54:49] [Aislar @ 6]: it needs a place to go OUT
[18:54:58] [inferno @ 6]: and those with the huge GC's are selling it for ridiculous conversions driving up the market
[18:55:03] [radu @ 6]: how about a nexus removal from npc?
[18:55:06] [inferno @ 6]: So we need to poof the gold.
[18:55:07] [Aislar @ 6]:
[18:55:08] [Aislar @ 6]: YES
[18:55:12] [inferno @ 6]: Radu
[18:55:15] [inferno @ 6]: that is a stroke of genius.
[18:55:21] [Aislar @ 6]: that would be PERFECT radu
[18:55:24] [inferno @ 6]: I'd be 100% ok with that, as long as it was expensive
[18:55:26] [radu @ 6]: ok, how much gold?
[18:55:26] [inferno @ 6]: like 2 mil GC
[18:55:27] [Rabbitman @ 6]: depends on price but would help
[18:55:32] [Aislar @ 6]: 1.5m to 2m
[18:55:38] [inferno @ 6]: it needs to be EXPENSIVE
[18:55:38] [Rabbitman @ 6]: nah, tbh 500k-1m
[18:55:45] [Lelugo @ 6]: ja u get pro and no more motivation for play insane, no xp.. only invasion is pro and ofc u have good gc but cant but nexus
[18:55:46] [inferno @ 6]: people with huge GC need to have something to dump it on
[18:55:48] [Aislar @ 6]: 1.2m-1.6m
[18:55:49] [radu @ 6]: I think 1m should be okish?
[18:55:52] [inferno @ 6]: and those with huge GC are the ones buying the stones
[18:55:55] [Aislar @ 6]: yea 1m
[18:55:58] [inferno @ 6]: 1m would be fine. I wouldn't bitch.
[18:56:01] [radu @ 6]: or let's make a poll
