If I may, I'd like to take this question


Life is not fair, No one told you to go out and buy these crystals. No one told us that all crafted meds would suck, but components would be left intact.


You cannot say, "Because this was useful two weeks ago, it must be as useful today" because if that were the case, where do we sign up. My CDEF pistol with max dmg of 80 was the best gun on the server in week one, but then they released adv components and it became useless.


Finaly "Mind was so imporatant in the old system", and so were mind crystals & that's why you have them, going back to my first point, Just because it was useful once upon a time, doesn't mean it was ever going to last forever. You enjoyed them while you had them and that should be enough. IMO.


PS You could have tried selling them after testing BETA, Im sure you could have atleast suckered a few into easing your pain. Look at all the people who auctioned off their 25pt Musical/Dance outfits.


PSS Do you think that the CSRs should re-imburse everyone?

fine but then MIND crystals should be last because they were 1 in 3 day use, "veteran rewards" and not meant to be hoarded by you, or anyone else for that matter.


"Respec:" warning is a "POP UP" it looks Identical to the one that informed you that you were able to respec, with options of "NOW" "LATER" & "NEVER" and unless you pushed "NEVER" would have recieved this pop up every time you logged in. Which is why some people clicked "Now" without reading it, THUS using their Last Respec.


HOWEVER!!!! If you log inand /respec instantly (like I did on euro-chimaera) the respec window will come up before the pop-up, which you'd think would have some sort of "OVER ALL OTHER WINDOWS" idea like I've seen on other programs, but its not, and lays behind the respec screen untill it's to late.

Respec:

When ever I would go into the respec I would see a flash of red text, it never staid there long enough for me to even read the first word or it. Now when I go in it says I am not eligable for respec. So it seems that one of the times I saw that flash it was to tell me this was my last respec, but again I could not read it. I have read that this has affected many others. It was not our (the players) fault that this was not working for everyone and I would ask that everyone get one last respec that has had there time expire. SOE really doesn't need even more players mad at them, this timefor getting stuck with a respec that was not their intent to be the last.

What is going to be done for players that have these now useless items? I personally spent over 20 Million credits bying some and the time to do the quest because mind was so important in the old system. I put in a ticket and the responce was "search the forums." Well I have, and not found anything related to a trade in or future plans. Please tell me what is to become of my Mind Crystals.

Yer i wish they would turn the Mind Crystals into something usfull like a Health crystal for example. While i did not buy any Mind Crystals it's still a reward from a village quest that i earned and would like to use. Turning it to a Health crystal would be a good solution imho.
