You know what you did OOO???? you disabled people who craft items and sell them. I know ppl who paid hundreds to get recipes to craft and sell items. They wont spend a single cent now on this messed up game. You cant just CHANGE the whole mechanics of things, geez.
U shouldn't release the game if u hadn't thought of it earlier.

Auctionhouse - terrible. it should be like the CE buying market. its easier to access and doesn't SPAM your mail
- why do you need the category of SWORD, SHIELD, HAT, GUN, Since you cant sell the crafted bound ones anymore
- you basically STRIPPED away half of the items ppl were actually going to sell
- 10% of profit is taken away. WTF. making more crowns disappear

So basically many buyers of CE dont buy CE anymore. They cant craft/merchant items.

insanely hard to get a 5* piece now

lets see Vog Cub Piece (no mat cost):

(stars) ---- (Cr cost)+(CE cost)+(recipe cost)
2* --------- 400cr+50ce+1,000cr
3* -------- 1,000cr+200ce+4,000cr
4* -------- 2,500cr+400ce+10,000cr
5* -------- 5,000cr+800ce+25,000cr

...and that adds up to 48.9k crowns and 1,450CE. and this is excluding cost of Materials as well

it costs more the make a 5* than before. And is MUCH harder to obtain crowns since you cant sell items. All you can to is GRIND GRIND GRIND

is this "BALANCING" the game?!

Do this. Lose money. Lose players.

with many people who buy CE with real money flooding the in-game market with materials at MUCH lower than average or worthwhile pricing, no one who is free-to-play will continue to play this game if they have any sense at all. i have been a free player since the beginning of this games release, and i have dealt with the rising cost of energy, though grudgingly. But this has gone too far. Now the materials that ive worked hard to obtain in game are worthless. Mug of misery for example. It sold for about 2k CR yesterday. NOW? i cant sell one for 500CR. AND it takes 4 HOURS to find out that i didnt sell it for an outrageously low price. When it was trade chat, if i didnt sell it i found out INSTANTLY when a person said "no thanks". Without a minimum pricing based on the number of stars an item has, 5* materials are going for hundreds instead of thousands of CR. This is a deal breaker. i will NOT be playing this game anymore, and any chance i might have had of buying CE has gone out the window. Instead, i just got 50$ worth of in game money for a different game. why? because the makers of that game know enough not TO BREAK THEIR GAME for free-to-players.

Most of the mechanics-based arguments were already mentioned, either a long time ago or in the span of 24 hours.

So my leaf with the entire fern-asco has been mostly... ... ... corn-munity-based.

I quite understand the anger and frustration at being fir-zen out of the loop when it comes to patchoulis and what they do, but the kind of reaction I saw was simply una-sap-table. Your biggest fan has initiated a boycott. Players are leaving in a huff instead of waiting for a response (and to some, they've already bee-cided no matter what).

If this is the kind of community you people have, then it pains me to say it, I'm actually having second thoughts about log-ging on everyday if this is what I'm going to eggs-pect in future.

It's mica me sad.

I'm hoping that Three Rings stops ploughing this furrow of sorrow, shame and greed, since all it's doing is hurting them in the redwood if they keep it up. Because I'd like to support that one dev they have hired.

The poll is a bit faulty, there is no quit the game option.

I and pretty much my whole guild refuse to play the game until it gets fixed and Im sure theres a lot of people who feel the same way.

So I think a "Quit" one would've been nice.
