You think this is kinder or something? People should protect themselves, if someone needs to be “protected” they have bigger issues and nobody cares.
This only prevents people from putting money into the game and going to RMT.
On top of that f2p players are fucked if they want to buy blue crystals.
In SA prices skyrocketted and RC>Gold is at over 1k same for blue crystals.
maybe you need to research why diablo 3 auctionhouse was shut down. This is the only solution to combat fraud and 3 days is nothing.
agreed, they unintentionally added in a “do you really want this item?” feature lol. Great stuff.
People who thinks this is a good thing must’ve forgotten that if nobody uses RC to buy gold, you F2P-ers can’t buy blue crystal using gold either.
Don’t cry when you can’t buy stuff off the in-game store when you run out of blue crystals 
RC to BC will begin to correct by Friday or Sunday at the latest. A 3 day lead time was added on Wednesday.
The people acting like the sky is falling right now are painfully clueless.
lol, this will hurt the people that bought extra cash shop items hoping to RMT to gold more (because we KNOW you did it haha)
Wow, must be a prophet or something or you’re just pulling assumptions out of your ass.
Can I say I KNOW you RMT-ed from G2G? Does being accused felt good?
That’s not how they gonna paint it. BuisnessPR is only one of 2 things:
PS EUC
they already went with no other choise lol
they acknowledged its a bad but necessery change
In a way, they did have no other choice. You can not have high chargeback rates and be used as a vehicle for fraud.
The system will likely improve with known “good” customers getting the gold instantly in the future.
You meant instantly after 3 days?
Oh man… that’s some strong copium you got yourself there.
The 3-day buffer with stabilize after 3 days and it will be back to normal.
Wish i could cope like this
Yeah having whales not only putting money into the game but getting the gold earlier than other people that might put $20 every 2 months will sure be a good idea.
It doesn’t force people to put more money to get the early access to purchaes at all /s
anyway to convert blue crystal back into gold
No it won’t. Maybe to a certain degree, but in general it won’t, for the whales that constantly max out their limit everyday. But majority of purchases here (from whales and non whales) are impulse buys for one of several things:
Honing
If I want to rage hone or push now, I need the cash now, not in 3 days. I might actually hit my target by just farming and waiting 3 days.
AH bids
Hah… that item is gone.
Marketplace purchases
Those items are gone.
If f2p is floating enough raw gold to do these things ahead of time why would someone swiping not be floating the gold?
The defective pattern here is not having enough resources to do the thing you’re trying to do.
I understand the company wants to take advantage of people with poor impulse control & planning and profit from it, but they made a change that doesn’t allow them to do that effectively.
