How about a diamond special for the working class?

I've been seeing diamond specials being run occasionally at different times throughout midday (when I'm off work) and even some evenings, which is great, but you only see it once in that day. As a matter of fact I was just told one was run earlier today, and of course, because I work a 12hr shift 7am-7pm EST I missed it.

Is it possible to run these one to two hr specials twice or even three times throughout the 24 hr period so that the people who work daylight, swing shift, and midnight shift also get a chance at these specials especially during the times you have rare items up in the Item shop such as the level VI and X runes? Maybe there is a plan to run another Diamond special tonight, since it's also the RoM Celebration, but I'm not holding my breath. It would just be nice that everyone have a chance at the specials during the same day.

I don't know why they just can't run the damn diamonds specials all weekend. Most everyone I know (myself included) won't buy diamonds unless they're on sale. I'd like to take advantage of the X rune sale but I'm not gonna be buying diamonds at regular price. Can't justify the price.

Please, Frogster, do another diamond sale while the X runes are still being offered.

Yes the marketing Team from frogster EU is a huge fail ..... they never made money on the EU servers last year and the way there going there surely not going to make money on the US servers this year ...... one has to sit and wonder if the person doing this job isnt a son or daughter of the owners of frogster (would make sense ... after all you have a team on the EU side that loses money, and a team on the US side that makes money and when you streamline things you fire the ones that make you money and keep the ones that lose money) ....... Would be the only reson I can think of that they still have a job .... Frogster you need to get your *@%# togeather and start doing things right pls ......some of us wanna keep playing this game, we enjoy it, but the way things are being done we wont be playing it for long ...... we dont mind spending money on the game, but make it worth our while.

They have screwed themselves out of the $100 a mth I spent. My wallet thanks them.

I am Australian.. which is why these happy hour deals make me unhappy.

yea i have the same problem being in a diff continent. alot of my guild mates also work at night. And some of them supply our other less fortunate guildmates who cant afford diamonds at all so we have alot of ppl feeling the crunch.

Well, here's what i don't understand, they have whole weekends of 120% diamonds which is cool and frankly the only time i buy diamonds(makes me feel like i get more bang for my buck). Now they wanna try to make it feel special by offering a Happy hour for only a few hours and to boot its only 100% more diamonds. Are they trying to avoid another diamond fiasco like last year, well i have news for them, now they are having a worse time this year IMO. I don't know what they are thinking and tbh i dont think they are thinking. The so called rip off specials in the CS, I mean really 300 diamonds for one rune. I understand the most recent gasha gave a lot of ppl a DAYM good deal even if it wasn't meant to work that way but 300 diamonds for one rune REALLY? Let me clue someone in that may read this and actually be able to do something. This is the Big TAX refund season in the US and a lot of ppl that play this game will more then likely have a lot of excess cash and perhaps they may spend it on diamonds. That's how i had 12k in diamonds when the gasha's happened, i was lucky to catch the 150% sale a few weeks(once again flash sale) then nothing in the CS for weeks so i saved them up :)

Paragraph break LOL

Meh im rambling now, i worked all night and im a bit tired but anyways think about FEU or whoever you are.. You are missing out on some premo easy cash.. you are also losing players and the new ones coming in don't last long. So please think about this before the next weekend comes along... Also lets get some double or triple exp/tp going on. I've got over 50 exp/tp orbs between both my toons to fill, SO LETS GET THIS PARTY STARTED!!!! LOL

Im not a fanboy cause im one of the first ones to light a torch and rally the lynch mob, but i do enjoy the game and have made a lot of really good friends and i would like to see the game stick around and for the game to progress(bugs and all). So FEU/RW please take care of the ppl that pay your salarys.

Same as last year, by March all the kiddies have spent all their xmas/holiday money from grandma, so these diamond specials specifically targeted at the school kids, are falling on deaf ears.

Someone with a clue needs to specifically be targeting the wage earners, who still have a consistent 'income', and have not run out of money until the next birthday or family holiday.
