Mounting issues (not a request anymore)

REMINDER that mounts are CHARACTER bound NOT account bound and CAN NOT BE SOLD

Lets be reasonable; this means no saying the flowing
-its not going to happen
-its going to take money away form the cash shop
-its gonna cause the servers to lose funding
Because if you want me to be honest about the statements below they are all -censored profanity here-

This has gotten beyond being a request anymore.

You need to do something about the perm mount issue, one way or another players spend ALLOT of time effort and money for just the lower ends ones. the rate in diamonds for the us servers is ridiculousness.

This is about survival of the game not funding the world map is HUGE like stupid huge. there are only two fixes for this problem, and its all based on rather or not you the staff of the game want to keep mounts a Diamond only product.

IF you decide a player can only get perm mounts with Diamonds as it stands perm mounts need to be like outfits ACCOUNT BOUND no exceptions.

If you decide to throw players a bone and offer slower mounts as freebies in the token shop with an item in Diamond shop that allows their speed to be upgraded. You don't have to make diamond shop mounts account bound.

The problem is the verity of perm mounts and Lack there of.

this isn't a issue of money its an issue of ascetics and rather or not a player is willing to stay with a game because temp mounts are a nessaessary evil for people who's bills leave them little to nothing to spend on them-self.

so every player who is in it to make money for the game its high time you held your tongue! you created a imbalance in attics that does effect if a player stays with a game or not. I was nice about it before Because of what you guys did to my suggestions time after time (including ones that would add content to the Diamond shop) I'm not gonna be nice about it anymore:mad:. This has nothing to do with you guys and it is not gonna hinder the servers ability to make money but it is going to help the server keep players.

your just gonna have to suck up its gonna make your diamond sales in auction house less successful! So everything aside there is a choice the developers have to make and its not easy but it is forced upon you by the people who would seek to squelch this topic.

-you can keep perm mounts a diamond only thing but you have to make it account bound
or
-you can add a new perm mount item into the game that is upgradeable but available to all players diamonds or no. (even if the upgrade item can only be bought with diamonds and remember it has to be less than the most expensive mounts)

putting in perspective if I was in your shoes I would go for the later as it makes it less likely for other players to poke fun at someone for not having enough money to play a game like world of warcraft or pay subscription fees or even afford a 25.00 game card. and there are people with that many bills and that few cash. who got so sick of dealing with temp mounts they hoof it as in run form place to place.

And if you teenish naysayers STILL have a problem with this; just wait till you can't rely on mommy or daddy or anyone anymore for ANYTHING shelter included! THAN we can see how much money you have for MMO's and the like.:cool:

and you can thank some jerkwad on tumblr for me losing my cool about being nice about it!

I suppose you can say the real problem is
"Bound
Can not be sold"

being on way too many items. and we all know who was responsible for that campaign its time they had no say in it.
