Parody: Why do businesses try to make money!?

It's so unfair that Plarium, a business, tries to make money. How dare they come up with new products to sell and then give their players incentive to either buy those products or grind to earn them for free!? Why can't everything just be my way?

Are you missing the point on purpose? It's not about a business that tries to make money. It's about the  way Plarium tries to make money. Some players grind for a very long time to get some stuff, or payed money for it. It's about the way Plarium tells them - HERE IS SOME NEW STUFF. ALL YOUR TIME SPENT IS WORTHLESS, ALL YOUR MONEY SPENT IS WORTHLESS. YOU CAN START FROM THE BEGINNING. Compared with other games/companies Plarium and their games are at the top end to give the players maximum frustration. But i think there are enough PAYERS to give them the money to continue with this. SADLY!

I'm not missing the point. The people who invested time/money into certain builds can still use those builds, they just need to grab a tissue, wipe away their tears, and change their tactics. Or, you know, quit.

Bill is completely missing the point. Of course any business can make decisions to make money. Those decisions may have negative outcomes. Instead of driving revenue, it may create a loss. Pissing off the player base is a pretty good way to ensure a loss. Time will tell. 

This reminds of BMW's brilliant plan to get owner who buy cars to pay a monthly subscription to use their heated seats.  

BTW, good money is on Bill being somehow connected to Plarium.

No, not connected to Plarium. Just don't see the sense in endlessly crying about a game that you choose to play. Either quit or shut up.

I don't see the sense in you spending time endlessly defending Plarium instead of just playing the game. Why even come here and defend their decision?

BTW, I am currently not playing. Former daily player for some time.

Here is a fun fact: you dont own anything you buy in this game, it's in the TOS/Terms Of Service (something alot of people don't read).

The moment you started playing the game you also accepted the TOS. With that you also accepted that Plarium can modify or even eliminate whatever you "own" (Disc and Arc nerf for example).

You can't really complain when they change something in the game.

Plarium owns the game, you just have access to it.

Bill, you are funny and I like your mentality. I hope you drop by the discord sometime and share a laugh with me.

Here we go with Terms of service again. I don't think anyone is saying they own anything or Plarium owes anyone anything for nerfing everything behind a paywall. The general consensus is the move essential sticks a middle finger in everyone's face. Take it in the you know what like a man like Bill has, or speak up and boycott so Plarium knows they crossed the line. Stop paying and stop playing or lube up for the next round in a few months.

We don't need to waste time with this kind of troll. They are clearly connected and are acting toward the interests of the people those want MODS implemented. They will try to turn the blames onto the people who raise voice, make them feel bad about themselves and doubt their own skills / confidence. Real veteran don't waste time mocking other fellow players with such threads.

So, don't let them manipulate you, be awake and put those noise aside.

I neither like or dislike Mods, in my opinion the execution of the way it's being added is bad.

It's just that Plarium is legally allowed to do this whether we like it or not.

Also i see alot of complaining on this Forum, but no possible solutions a given.

A possible solution is thet bots temporarily don't use Mods and that the current Derby Event becomes a permanent weekly event.

Also, regardless, it's still good to just read the TOS so you kkow what Plarium can or can't do.

Again, I don't care about TOS. I didn't say anything about rights or legal stuff, so I-just-don't-care.

Even if the TOS tells that the company can do anything, it does not mean people cannot talk about things they don't like. These 2 topics are irrelevant, unless you want to sue someone for that conflict of interests.

I didn't say I want my money back, but I just said I will spend no more.

BTW, endlessly complaining about a game that you arent even playing is worse than endlessly complaining about a game that you are.

Parody: Hurr Durr why are you upset plarium is adding more stuff you need to buy to be competitive? Businesses are allowed to make money so you have two options: Shut up and take it or shut up and quit. Stop whining, anyone who complains about greed is a baby

Well, you dont need to buy it. Ive been playing without MODS every day and virtually nothng has changed except it takes a little longer to kill people. And theyre literally doing a weekly event that gives free MOD parts, like they said they would do. So youre literally crying over nothing. Which is what babies do.
