I'm just gonna say it. This is pathetic

A negative pheon balance may crash the server though ….

I don’t know how this turned into a political discussion, but hey… more power to you.
also, I do agree with everything you said but to be fair, nazis is not worst than the united states however you wanna look to it

Lmao this is actually pathetic. Imagine doing all this shit to an already frustrated, dwindling player-base, all over just 2.5k gold worth of Pheons per character…

Do you rreally still belive in the words of smile gate or amazon it havs been so often ben shown that they arree lyingg to us

Pretty sure this is going to happen

only tthink what smile gate and amazon cares is the money not the players and to say play new world now is the samee shit company

Pathetic is actually the right word for it.

As a person who actually gears their alts I can say that 10 pheons/char isn’t some huge sum. If it was 50 or 100 pheons per char, sure AWS, you can go crazy and turn off the servers to fix it. I’ve already purchased 100 packs of pheons from the store gearing up chars and I just thought it was a nice thing from AWS to say “hey you play multiple chars, so each should need some pheons for the upcoming change, here’s a nice gift”.

It’s pretty sad to see that this is the response to what could have been a nice gift and goodwill to the player base.

I’m seriously considering to quit this game. It’s great but recent server crashes, DCs and extending the maintenances … If you are going to shut down server for certain time just say 6h not extend it every 2 hours to make people disappointed every time they check the servers status and willing to play… That’s really annoying.

Devs are imploding because they got a good response when people found out they got 10 pheons per character. They don’t know how to react when people are happy LOL

Kinda sounds like Blizzard’s fun police

I’m fully convinced they are still debating what to do because of the backlash and doing nothing to fix anything.

If you don’t have anything smart to say, stay silent.

’ More recently, at the Premier Site Summit event in late July, Sage Sundi, the Global Online Producer and Lead Game Master for Final Fantasy XI , claimed that the Absolute Virtue battle takes about 18 hours.’

I don’t know man, the 16-hour maintenance on EUC and EUW during peak hours is quite unbeatable…

Thats some copium. They obviously doing their best to remove all the free pheons. They just really incompetent and can’t find a way to remove the pheons without destroying the game more. Maybe try hire some smart people with proper training, experience and correct skillset.
