You two guys are truely my heros. I just want you to know how cool you are before all the lamers start flaming for all the credits you surely duped, or how you must have stolen the 1000 starting credits from 10,000 noobs in order to get enough for 1 adk, or how you probably just had your dad buy you $10,000 worth of ebay credits so you could afford it. Yep, that is defenently how the rich get rich folks. Hard work has nothing to do with it. You guys are total badasses. Someday, I will be like you.

this post was taken in the spirit that I'm jealous, i'm not if anyone is wondering not much in this game I haven't done myself.

i just have serious issues with AD kits, especially when you start to have classes of have's and have not's.

imo, they were a bad idea, and its too bad they aren't untradeable.

i see the math and disagree, but then again i probably replace my armor more than the average person. 20 times isn't that many times to replace a set.

also, i'm not writing a letter to my senator or complaining because I hate the rich, on the contrary i'm very impressed by them, because they worked pretty hard to get that way.

it just worries me that SOE is entrenching the differences between groups of people.

for instance, look at uber armor enhancers, find one and it is good forever, not good until that piece of armor dies. lets look at AA slots. a person with an eternaled set of armor has what 36 slots to stick AA's into it and no worries about ever losing those attachments.

i understand there is nothing I can do, really forum posting doesn't ever change anything, i was just sharing some concerns I thought of.

If the rich can now eternal+15 2handed speed, that is going to be better for everyone, because now that person is no longer competing for 2h speed tapes. ADKs are basically going to take up where nyax left off before he was nerfed by making SEAs more available at cheeper prices.

I don't think there's anything wrong with people enjoying their precious items Whether they looted the weapons themselves or bought them, it was achieved by their hard work....whether they made the money by running solo missions endlessly, camping caves, crafting, etc.

Mission terminal is available to all players...even without pre-nerf sologroup or ATST, a master combat profession can pull 10k mission on Lok (in improved job market city)...20k per run...in full 3hr buff session, easily 500k+...3 times a week, 1.5mil/week...etc...I know...work

and campers...well...it's their choice of play...I personally can't understand how enjoyable to AFK/macro away $15 monthly subscrition, but if that's what they enjoy, /cheer AFK campers...if you dislike the camping idea, you can always gather up a full size group and outdamage AFK camper(s)...but again, choice is up to you...I think of them as jewel dealers/buyers lol...they do the work...I come up with the credit and buy lol

Crafters work hard for their credits...and if you mass produce, it's almost impossible to gather all the resources on your own (hide for AS, meat for Doc/Chef, etc.)...the mass producers spend a lot of their credits on resources...and again, he/she made a choice to pursue crafting and merchant route in the game.../deepbow to all rich crafters...cuz I'd much rather adventure than run 30+ factories ...and the vendors...eeeeeeeek

Honestly earned credits=hard work...and I believe he/she should enjoy the finest things that the game has to offer...We all start out with 250 skill points...same combat specials and schematic list(s)...where you end up is up to you

BTW, is that just me??..it's a humbling experience to see a player dealing over 10k damage to a mob lol

this game will always have the have's and the have not's. Everyone got an ADK when they hit one year. many sell because they need money. what is the issue with that? making money in this game is EASY. yes its hard to get started as a new people. it just takes work. SOE can't help lazy people who just crys about not having. everyone starts with 250 skill points, a little money, a cdef, and a melon, even the super rich. They worked for there money. so why can they not spending as they chose

this debate is dumb. Really anyone cares that they adk'd these items? Honestly? The only items I see a problem with are legendary and exceptional weapons.Other than that adk everything for all I care.



There are those with loaded guns and those who dig. You, my friend dig.

As much as I enjoy my anti-decay kits I would have to agree that they were a very bad idea.


Too late now though so I suppose we'll just have to see how it plays out.

They probably should have just been made non-tradable. All the "one time / account" items could probably go to be a non-tradable thing... with the exception of the 30k resource award I guess... I think that one is just boring though.
