    Im not a donor, never spent a dollar in this game. VIP is the most important thing in this server, especially if you wanna get rich fast, but it also provides some nice advantages in pvp (DP being one) and i wouldnt want it to go away. It's been like that and we are already used to it, why take it away? If you feel that it is unfair, then get VIP or premium.

    That's the whole point, it provides advantages which you have to pay for, if you want them that is. If you dont wanna pay then stop complaining. It is only your fault.

    They would still earn the EXTRA DP when having VIP and are PvEing. It ONLY affects the PvP, so they have nothing to complain about.

    Not everyone has VIP in the server, so that already makes PvPing unfair.

    "Why take it away?"
    Why was the Sell Limit to NPCs added (ie taken away free to farm kinah). Answer: To make kinah useful, creates an economy balance.
    Why was the AP relic NPCs taken away? Answer: To focus gameplay and rankings on more PvP orientated. AP is easy to gain in PvP anyways.
    Why was freedom to trade AP/medals for PvP gear removed? Answer: To encourage players to donate/vote to help the server.

    There are numerous things removed from the game. The point all focuses on balancing gameplay and helping the server strive. Taking a incentive away from VIP might appear like it hurts the status but like you suggested, people do adapt and will get used to it eventually. Considering that VIP already gives players more Abyss Points, Is DP really a necessity? There are alternatives like DP Jelly for emergencies which gain instant max DP.

    Edit: I'm not going with removing it completely, perhaps reduce the rate it gives to something more "balanced".

    Yea so? Who said things were all fair anyway? Of course it is unfair, you think it is not unfair when you cant instantly buy the best set but someone else can? Lol, you are playing in a private server.. what would you expect? And as i said, it is your choice not to have VIP, you dont get to complain.


    @Akikaze, i dont see how removing a nice vip function would encourage players to vote/donate in order to buy VIP, i really dont.

    Not remove, reduced would be a more fitting word. VIPs will still definitely get more than Normal/Premium. However not at some ridiculous rate by killing 2 rank 8 & 9 enemies...

    To be honest im not really sure if you can get full DP by killing 2 low ranks. I do get a huge boost by killing officers though (certainly not 4k though). But as a person who buys VIP every month, i wouldnt want them to touch DP gain rates and im sure other VIPs would agree with me, VIP will really suck if they keep getting stuff off it.

    Not as simple.

    Plus, many classes (Not only rangers) rely on DP in PvP.

    Tanks, Sins, even Glads. They all have low CD DPs.

    Sins have a short cooldown hide skill, essential for escaping. Im from siel and when btk BR zergs my sin i just use it and escape after having killed 2 or 3 of them. Like a boss.

    I didn't say that they do. But i cant complain for having a skill that allows me to escape from unfair situations. Oh and, you dont have to say that you are one of the best sins in Lumiel because 1: nobody cares and 2: If you are the best then you dont have to confirm it, im sure people already know it.

    "essential for escaping"
    Essential (adj.): extremely important and necessary

    Maybe you should learn english. I said it is essential for a specific situation "escaping" from unfair situations. If you do not need it, then kudos for you. i never said that you personally do, or anyone else as a matter of fact.

    Lol, you can't escape out of a fight for a few seconds as an assassin and use hide?

    Also, most people will agree that assassins probably have the worst DP skills. Don't tell me they need the extra DP from VIP when PvPing, it seriously made me laugh out loud.

    I wasn't saying it to say that I'm the best, or show off. My point was that it is coming from an experienced assassin. I could be a noob, and maybe nobody even knows that I play sins.

    Love it how people rephrase what others say, for the benefit of their opinion. If you have nothing else to say regarding the actual topic, i ll be seeing ya.
