so if someone "won" 9 covers within a month and bought the other 4 this player seems highly capable of doing something like that again and again. whats the point of complaining?

Because of exactly what you said! I can win them going forward, so why in hell should I be out the HP for wanting to accelerate into an ability that will no longer exist?!

Can we stop accusing them of bait and switching / robbery / any other underhanded activities? It's quite clear they only have the game's best interest in mind.

I agree that they arent being underhanded/thieving, but they are most definitely incompetent. Is that really any better? And its tough to imagine that they truly have the games best interests in mind when they half-**** the communication, are dreadfully slow in fixes, etc.

On second thought, I think they havethe best interest in mind....it just doesnt translate to movement or mouth. Which is sad.

Wow, you're really a self-important prig aren't you? Why do you feel the need to dictate how others should feel, and what others should do?

There's nothing clear about the announcement or the video. I hope you're old enough to know that what people say when backed in a corner, and what their original intent was do not necessarily align. Heck, it's a sure bet that it won't. People would say anything if their behind is on the line. Besides, it's not as if this was the first time they pulled a bait and switch. Remember Patch? Didn't that one come out with an obvious flaw, and they let him sit there, as if hoping people will buy covers, because who wouldn't want a character who not gives twice as many strike tiles as originally promised? So forgive me if I'm a bit skeptical.

Sure they're offering to sort of give you back your HP spent for your entire IF (really?! sell off the entire thing?), but it's not as if it came with the initial announcement. Which they would do if they really had "the game's best interest in mind". Their hands were forced, people were complaining loudly and unceasingly, and I know for a fact that people who applied for refunds were getting them through ITunes and GooglePlay.

Oh, and how is offering a sale after limitedly announcing a nerf of a major character not be considered underhanded? Will those poor saps who didn't hear of the impending nerf to TGT, buy HP's from the sale, and subsequently covers for her, be able to post a ticket to CS, and get their money back?

So please, zip it. You're not their lawyer, and if you are, you're certainly not doing a good job--mouthing off trite and silly lines as if just by saying them you make them true. And we're as entitled to our own personal opinion, as much as you are to your own flawed ones.

Dont worry, they are adding an in game note to the deeply buried FAQ this afternoon before they leave.....and applying the nerf hammer on Monday. And this after a week long *sale* on HP/ISO.

It raises the question: Which is more harmful, ignorance or incompetence?

I find it hilarious that, in a thread essentially created to say, "Hey look, let's not use name-calling and character attacks to defame a company who appears to at least be trying to be honest and positive", I am now the recipient of name-calling and character attacks. XD

Let's try to be civil. I understand being presented an opinion that conflicts with your own can be upsetting, but try not to be blinded by your rage, people.

The hilarity of this whole thing is, you purport to be civil, a proponent of presenting varying opinions, when you're in fact ramming your opinion down people's throat.. multiple times now.

And please, name calling? I labeled you sure, but I doubt anyone will contest the accuracy of the word I used.

Plug [n.] - a person who displays or demands of others pointlessly precise conformity, fussiness about trivialities, or exaggerated propriety, especially in a self-righteous or irritating manner.

Now in case you're not sure what the difference of someone merely sharing an opinion, and you is, permit me to illustrate.

Civil person who has an opinion to share: "I've seen the video, I believe them. They made an honest mistake, and are making reparations to correct that mistake. I think they really have the games best interest at heart."

You: "They came out with something, now can we all please support my views now? No? Well that's just am incorrect presentation of reality."

And all this despite people saying not in so many words that they felt taken advantage on and betrayed. Whatever else you may think or feel about this subject, you don't get to tell people what they should think, and feel, and think it's alright.

Finally, I did more than label you in my post, but clearly, you've no time for a sensible argument. You just want to seem persecuted. Good luck with that.

This is more of a mud slinging contest than an actual discussion at this point. Locking this thread before it goes any further.
