If you post the link on here, the MoD's remove it. R2's game module is not meant to last a long time or keep satisfied customers. You can find the R2 CEO himself online discussing this in a seminar about how to basically come in with a chinese browser game and get as much money as possible from "whales" before moving on to the next game. What the player base wants is simply not what is in this particular gaming company's business plan.
It would be nice if it was but its simply not. If you want a game that cares about its base and is in it for the long haul and not just a quick cash maker you should look at a subscription game. Some very, VERY nice ones will hit the market this spring coming making most of the current ones obsolete if I had to place bets.

continue having those events ON TOP of price reduction,
you must be a whale who has dropped grands on this game for this to upset you, sorry but even then you can buy a whole lot more if this happened
wings are 20 bucks with an insignificant br gain its gonna be forever before i hit enough free charms and tailor events before i get them to lvl 5(which is where i will stop) im not spending 100s of dollars to get their crappy boost any higher than that. And i know for damned certain that that is high end for most players who would stop at lvl3 or 4.
now imagine a 50% mark down on everything plus a sale event
wings are 5 bucks charms are like a 1.5 suddenly the thought of lvl 10 sounds a lot more feasible
hell for 5 bucks youd better believe a whole bunch of people waiting for the next br event would just cash it and have done with it.
For all intensive purposes lets ignore the whales, after all R2 already doesnt care for them.
ie: whales- those players who spend stoopifying sums of cash (are generally the top 5 of a server) and generally have a high quit rate
if this were to happen its not like the whales will quit over it, some might but thats common as is, but there will be plenty to replace it, heck new ones may even emerge with this

One thing I've noticed and that is being missed in Wartune. If 20 people pay $20 a month, it makes far more then 1 person paying $200. More people who pay is better then few paying more.

Wings can be bought at 1395 balens (once per month). Crypt Keys and charms have their special promotion/sales period.

Case in point: Razor Dragon cost $300+ to get in September, but completely free in October.

If prices change right now, then it sucks to be older players.
However, as it stands, older players do pay more! Look at tailoring events. In the past, it wasn't possible to get 2 pairs of free wings when you synthesize up to level 5. Players pay to win, so they get it. Now? With all the goodies & rewards, newer players do get it cheaper.

No ones pays to suck and if they cant make the average price to not suck they are gonna lose customers, case in point they have much fewer people joining and staying on older servers, No one wants to pay THAT MUCH to catch up
Nor do older player want to pay even more to Retain their strength
I'm sure sooner or later they are gonna see this downward trend line in their profits thats gonna be directly related to their population size
I really don't understand there reasoning. I have been using offer sites to get me free Ultimate game cards just to keep me on par with the cashers and it is starting to feel like a second job.

We all know how you feel, but it's as u said and what you don't want to hear. They just don't care.
They don't care for us, they care for people buying, and as long as everyone keeps buying the VIP status and SC, they won't change it.
