WoW so um when did we have SFM or browser version of ROM that they had to be taken away from us ????

Kalaydo shutdown
The end of Score For More

This is some funny stuff here. One would think that the CM would know we have been asking for these things for some time with no answer from yous on when/if we will be getting them .. So 1st things you tell us is its being taken away from us before we get it .. Sweet , I don't think I will be missing something that was never given to me.

But I do have an idea .. how about yous give all players over lvl 20 a SFM pet ( we also like buffs) and a free mount ( a 6 man would so rock) to make up for the years that we the US/AU lost out on ?? sound fare ?? I will take the Eggshell JuJu - Pet Egg and yes you guessed it the Dagger Skeleton Mount (Permanent) . But incase yous cant do that .. then( free) diamonds will make up for our loss.. now what's a mount + a buff pet worth ???

I highly doubt that Mika know what Sfm or Kalaydo are, much less that we don't have them and have been demanding it for years. Since announcements usually are posted in all the communities, he's probably just doing his job and reposting it in all the forums.

Although for the sfm announcement, one of the 3 reasons they gave for closing it down was that:

Quoted

In the Phirius Token Shop and the Ruby Shop there is already a loyalty point and a payback program in operation.

Wait... what?

and also:

Quoted

So that you still retain access to the exclusive equipment items, we are planning to integrate them into the various shops.

This sounds like one of 2 things: The exclusive items from sfm will be sold in the CS, or the sfm free CS item feature will be implemented into the CS.

The announcements were posted here to keep you guys informed. You've been asking for it for a while and some of you have even suggested it be shut down - well, the closure of SFM evens the playing field a fair bit.

The 'loyalty' bit of Phirius Tokens & Rubies struck be as a strange thing to say but when I started to think about it, it did make sense.

- By playing the game Daily Quests, we are rewarded with the Phirius Tokens;
- By spending our diamonds on non-promo items, we are rewarded with Rubies.

I know it sounds a bit hollow, but it's true.

So... instead of giving us something fun that we asked for a long time you just take it away from EU to make us even... What a not smart thing to do... now we will feel more even but EU is now complaining that it's gone. Was it really that hard to give us SFM too? meh you always go easy way...

Sounds like the items that were in the SfM shop will be added to the ingame itemshop. If so, can i finally buy a dagger skeleton mount? Or dont gameforge want my money?

Guess they more satisfied giving it away to EU players for free through SfM than US players paying for it with real money.

Of all the things to inform us of.... you guys pick the LEAST relevant information to give us.

Y'know what? I'm going to open up my wallet and spend it on things. I'll probably go for sushi today. I'll be sure to tell you guys about it later.

A real sysadmin knows how to change the time.
If you make the same mistake while trying to make up for the previous one, you are doing something wrong.

As much as I'd love to say I offer consulting services, the scope of things broken is too large.

For us started with not giving us Cedric while EU had it for long time at very acceptable rate, then removal of Owenstain, short lived Cedric and now removal of those 2 services for EU to make it equal for everyone...

Add to this price change for supposed reward program (ruby) to higher prices and only thing you can see is greed... greed for people spending more money on Free2Play game int he order to progress.

I did my fair amount of monetary support and did support game as long as game support worked, but now you are expected to pay for dias, even you don't get any real support... that was last straw for me.

It was alot but it would take from creating a sfm account about 7-8 months to generate the score needed to purchase one. Plenty of time, considering how long they had sfm available at their disposal.

I know it sounds a bit hollow, but it's true.

In an odd turn of events we have more ways in which we are "rewarded"

- By logging into Runes of Magic you are rewarded with a sub-par 3d enviorment
- By spending hours upon hours doing repetitive events/quests you can have the attempt to be rewarded with a stat that you might need!
- By spending diamonds on non promo items or any item in the item shop or phirus tokens you are rewarded with ru.....b....wait no only promo items.
- By enduring years of poor management, customer service, retraction of beneficial events for the community you are rewarded with _______.

I know it reads a bit stupid but It's RoM!

It's been long enough to easily get the skeleton mounts (i dont have one because i spend all my points differently :p)- but they are merely collectors items, not that useful because they have the same problems that 2-player mounts have just on a bigger scale - often enough you'll find the persons on your backseats randomly being dropped off and ported back to your starting location, or even dieing in the process (i happened to arrive on someone elses mount at my destination, being dropped off and dieing instantly ... etc). So while its fun to have you'll rarely see anyone use it at all except for standing around and bragging rights.

The whole score for more system never really worked completely and had many many issues.

LOL we have to pay for something the EU could/can get for free.. sounds like a deal to me :rolleyes:

YomanROm .. I collect mounts/pets I have wanted the 6 man for a long time .. And SFM may have had lots of issues , but yous on the EU side still got things from them that we on US could not get.

If ROM wants to keep it fare give us a mount and SFM pet that gives the buffs..

Ooooh!!! We whined, QQed, complained and bellyached about how it is so horribly unfair to us poor Americans that they have the program and we don't. And now, our complaints is one of the reasons given for cancelling it.

Go, US players, go! You have obtained title "screwing up bonus programs in other countries"! Do we rock or what?! Let see what else other countries have that we can ruin?
