Anstros still not removed?

So are they removed yet?? because I still see someone selling antros equips...

 

Not yet, but blocked from the NPC (at least a friend told me that), hope they are going to remove that <:

 

yea they havent deleted it yet but good thing i only got 3 of those sets for remodels.

 

and hopefuly they wont be removed, like NTO wasnt.. :3 or like.. the ACD sets that ppl bought when it was aviable

 

That acd was removed, well gcd.

 

They likely won't be removed if they haven't already.

The difference between the ACD/GCD purchases and these Antro purchases is the sheer number. The ACD/GCD were limited in what was purchased, and it was very easy to tell who did it.

The Anthro armor had SO many people purchase it for remodels or for whatever purpose between both servers, that it'd just make for HOURS of log searching to even tell who purchased what in order to remove it.

 

true even though I'm still glad I skinned mine now all I need is a hac fuse for my ddl spear. Oo villlll

 

Well then if they are not going to be removed you are going to enable them on ely side?

 

Vendors on both sides are disabled.

At this point in time we've chosen not to delete the items themselves.

That decision was reached solely due to economic considerations to prevent an unnecessary upheaval of the market where our logs indicate Antros has been traded significantly. Creating uncertainty in trading conditions on that magnitude without significant prior warning would likely result in some pretty fierce backlash from the market without much gain although that option would have been better for us from a cash shop perspective. Still, in this case we've decided to place the in-game economy ahead of all other factors. We are not willing to push the envelope further than that though and enable purchasing the items for both factions; the reasons for that stance are well documented across the board.

This scenario is not comparable to the GCD incident where acquisition volumes were virtually nonexistent.

 

So, after months of saying "it's bug abuse they will be deleted don't buy them" those who disobeyed get away with it...nice

 

I never said that.

Anyone who did was basing their opinion off what happened last time with GCD but, as I said, those situations are not comparable.

What other people choose to say on the forum has zero bearing on my decision making process. If it's not from an admin or quoted from an admin it has no real weight when push comes to shove.

 

Next time I will remember to avoid listening to Ams then XD

 

Careful with that line of reasoning =p

Still I didn't mean to leave this open so... to quote my original "closing post"
