Ok here's the problem. These guys OOO will not listen to us. Read the title of this thread if some GM says something like that there probably liars. OOO is not going to listen to us even if us the players are the most valuable source of feedback OOO can get. Because of this the plans they have stated for future updates will stay that way no matter what. So OOO please listen to your players if you don't your asking for the playerbase to get smaller as the updates come in. But if you actually LISTEN to your only real source of feedback maybe so much people will stop quitting and try to not be so greedy with the way you make your new content. Im sure that no GM out there is going to listen to me cause they want to stick with their HORRIBLE economics. Ever since Rose Regellica started OOO and their conquest for money had begun with more and more updates meant to tempt players into buying CE with $$$s. The two worst of these are the latest one that included shadow lairs and the not as bad one accessories.
SHADOW LAIRS:
As all end-game players know the shadow lairs are a pretty neat addition besides the fact that only way to access them is by getting a shadow key. Someone posted that out of the 7500 CE they purchased only 2 keys came out of the lockboxes he opened. If OOO thinks it's okay to make shadow keys this rare i totally disagree and so do hundreds of thousands of other players. Theres not much else i can say about the shadow lairs since there are other rants and such that i all give a 100+.
ACCESSORIES:
Im cool with this feature but theres some reasoning has to be done. First of all keys are overpriced as many other old threads stated but i don't bother much cause when im so broke i can't go into the Clockworks i just get some CE to jumpstart my adventures. When i have CE to spare after getting rich agian i usually try to open some lockboxes and see whats inside. Iv'e opened 3 lockboxes already and here were the results box#1 had the one accessory i was already wearing which was a regal bolted vee :P box#2 had a drab com unit box#3 had heavy goggles. All of these accessories were sold exept the heavy goggles which i put on my spiral sallet to give it a better look as a costume.
Well that wraps it up. Please comment and give me 1+s Also before i go try to make a scene were a GM is looking on the forums and somone else is watching him/her.
ITs useless. theyre like 4 threads about anything related of the polemic generated from shadow key and they still being " deaf" about the situation.

and yes i agree with you: more rants = something wrong, of course there would be before rants from every update but this one its getting the whole player community attention. content supposed to be played and give us fun its limited to a chance of gambling. Gambling to play its now the game genre :P (i know there would be before gambling but the new content give its about CHANCE TO PLAY kinda pointless when youre paying to get the RIGHT TO PLAY).
sigh... its really dissapointing 000 YOUR CUSTOMERS ARE TALKING.
