it was earlier, that or my game didn't load up properly which is entirely possible as have had problems with packet loss and lag with my internet over the weekend
It might not be a big deal .... but this is exactly why players get, shall we say, dispirited !!
If the WOF is going to be temporarily disabled, why would Plarium not say something up front ? The alternative is that perhaps Plarium did not anticipate having to disable the WOF ... which would be fine if shared with the players.
As per most of my posts ... my theme is that open, honest communication works wonders.
I agree 100%. Plarium never ever get's in front of communication and enjoys playing catch-up. It amazes me how backwards MMO's can operate and still have such a large cult following. You guy's run this business the exact opposite of how other businesses run and your model has been cast out of the corporate world decades ago. But you are still so busy LOLIt might not be a big deal .... but this is exactly why players get, shall we say, dispirited !!

Also gone are the one day specials (e.g. 75% discount on revive, 50% discount on units) and all sorts of other random specials that appear in the marketplace that get people to spend. Why would Plarium think it is financially sound idea to remove spending opportunities for nearly 3 weeks, AND not even announce it beforehand, nor give any indication whatsoever about when it will return, OR whether it will return.
The beta started long ago. So the comments below look like either some aborted plan, or just something to tell people to placate them for a little while.
What is the CURRENT story on this from Plarium?

Hey, everyone. The Wheel of Fortune is temporarily disabled as we begin final preparations for the new engine beta testing. Don't worry, it will not be gone forever.
