Yes, many people think that 700 is wayy too much, so it'd be better if it was 500 like a lot of players originally thought.



This suggestion has 530 supports and 39 NO supports.

Support! I'm not a casual player I explore nonstop to get Items and now I've just found out this, excuse my language please, bullshit it is not okay, I MAKE plans for these types of things I set timers and I know how much I have to gain on the Hour! Because of this, I will only have three to bury instead of the planned six. I wouldn't care if they didn't wait for the very last second, now I have to replan for the entire stupid month.

Laila, I'm confused by your argument. It seems you go from total support to not supporting? Sorry if I'm reading that wrong, it just seems to flip flop.

Foxx, similar to what I argued a page or two back! I feel like this would have been met with much less agitation had they let us know, and perhaps implemented the price shift at the start of the event. Granted I feel 200 more DB was still a rather drastic shift

I wanted to breed to the pariah studs and get balls, now I can't.

Laila, Apologies, but half of that is false.

They don't sometimes do something we do not like, it's almost always. They almost never ask for community feedback (The most the polls are used for is which pose or base to do first. They don't poll the big issues often). And no, people have not forgotten about the 20 marks. I am still very salty about how it was implemented. It's not to say I haven't come around to planning on using it, but I'm using a specific way, for mane markings only, as I still personally think it should have been done. And I'm still very salty about it. Also. They had to implement a suggestion just recently in order to appease some of the community about hidden markings. We didn't just forget. They've had to appease us. They do what they want and the only reason we stay is because they're doing a slightly better job than some other places, but let me tell you, you can only drop the bar so far before it's not worth it anymore. As Thalath has said many a times in many places; 'There is "hard" and then there's "infuriating and not fun at all"'. Once you cross into the latter is where people start to leave. It's just not worth it past that point.

This new update isn't just about adding something though. Just last month we got them to say they would no longer mess with the amount of something it takes to open a tier; however, instead they have come in this month and raised the price of an item they damn well know most of the user base was planning meticulously to buy by not just 100DB, but 200DB. And with the damage control excuses we have been given so far, it is fairly reasonable to assume that we can expect more raises to the price as time goes on. As on user pointed out, within a year or two we could be paying 1000DB+ for a single scrotum. And entire month of work from casual players for a single scrotum just because 1. There are too many players because lioden refuses to put a cap or some control on player entry, or 2. They're trying to limit the income of people who spend 24/7 on this game and in the meantime are fucking the people who can only play maybe 4/7. That is the issue here.

(This turned into a little bit of a ramble, my apologies.)


Yes, TheDrawFrog, my inbox is open.

@Miss Hades Haha, I do support. I want it to go down, but there is no reason I shouldn't be allowed to put something nice about the staff. I put that there for more of a positive note. Don't get me wrong, I'm kinda upset myself.

@Noxis
Exactly what I was thinking. This really screws with lots of peoples breeding plans and such.

@Heda Yeah I get what you are saying. I'm a little upset myself about both, I just wanted to put that there so we could have something more positive. I'm not arguing that it shouldn't change.

No one here is "hating" on the staff. We simply do not like some of the decisions that they make on the behalf of the community. We can disagree with the actions taken and not "hate" on them.

I don't consider myself a casual player. I don't log in every day, but I have been logging in most every day this month. When I log in I spend pretty much the whole day on Lioden. I'm on long enough to send out 30+ hunts without rushing them. My king spends most of his time exploring and almost never gets back up to 100% energy from the time I log on in the morning to the time I log out at night unless there are circumstances outside my control (the site or power going out.)

With all of that said... I'm at whopping 587 bones. Now I can't even afford one buffalo scrotum after twelve days of grinding away. That is just... sick.

As someone who wants to start mutie breeding, but isn't able to because everything is way overpriced and I need my money to pay for my babies (cockatiels), it's a huge inconvenience to have to be left out of the breeding game once again. The only way I'd be able to get the scrotum now is if I had been here last year -- I've hardly been able to scrape up 500 bones, and I don't have any previous bones.
It's also pretty rude to change it last minute.

Admins are saying it was raised due to the amount collected and yet... They set a goal for us to open the Peddler. If we didn't even reach the goal yet when this happened and that was too much, why was the goal set so high?

Sigh. I just don't understand. A formal announcement would have probably made this better and if they would have done it sooner.

No support: the market will be ruined by the overflow of BB.
As the admins stated, they raised the price because of the amount of bones that have been collected. Buffy balls are a luxury not a necessity

This annoys me so much, I was going to bury some and use some, now I'd only be able to use one, I am next level salty on this one, don't mess with my plans if it isn't necessary, 100 DB up wouldn't have screwed up my technique that much but since they had to add 200 DB, now it'll just be easier to redo the whole thing.

I don't spend real money on the game because I have a steady game income here so I don't need too, but I feel bad for those who won't be able to get EVEN one from this event due to work/school, I feel bad for those who buy Gb to get Scrotums and now they are probably not going to sell for the normal 5 gb each.

They could've done this at the beginning of the month, now the active player base is gonna suffer for it.
They also need to realize that even though there are 122,135 Players that not all of them are active and haven't been on in Months!

@Heavenly
Yeah, exactly, why do they keep fluctuating goals and prices when everyone gets near them? They overshoot a lot of their goals too, just last month they had to open the murder stone because there was no way one million meteor shards would be collected in the last week. We shouldn't be punished for their false judgements.
And just maybe, we reach goals quickly because everyone is working towards those goals. If the DB shop didn't have anything desirable in it, does anyone really think we would have tried to unlock it so fast? No one would be gathering DB, but now I might just stop if the prices aren't reliable. There's no point to working for something unpredictable.
