[MagesRequiem]

Hm. I can't wait, and I think you can stop having a fit about rich whore children ruling the game. Having wings, devil outfits, and special houses doesn't make you any better. Last time I checked, a level 50 could destroy a level 30, +9 weapon or not. And don't lay down crap about how much money things are, and how they're unaffordable. During my summer job I could easily make over 100 USD per day, if I worked part of the day. What, you don't/didn't have a job? I suggest getting one instead of getting pissy on online forums. If I want to spend a small fraction of that for some enhancing stones, I don't see why other people can't, and I don't see how that gives me too much of an edge over you.

In the Korean game its a different story. About 99+% of the popuation in KR has cash shop overload. There are so many +9 weapons for sale, that it isn't funny. Despite me not knowing Korean, and not being able to understand what they say, no one yet has acted like an idiot to me. I honestly wish I could say the same for the North American version. There are hardly any people below level 40, and I usually enter Roumen (in Korean-friendly time) and there are about 5-10 other people, not counting a few shops. Why? They take it way more seriously. They are fine with forking over a few dollars for an hour of enjoyment, and they have a right to it. It seems like when money is involved, people become more serious.
If cash shop can somehow slam some intelligence into the noobs here, I say more power to it!

Okay, now you've pissed me off. First of all, I do get upset when rich spoiled brats can purchase all this crap because a lot of times the items they purchase have something that give them an unfair advantage over them. Obviously if a level 30 with a +9 weapon were going against a level 50 with an un-enhanced weapon, the level 30 would still be defeated. Thats a 20 level difference right there. Not to mention you have to take their classes into account. But thats not the point. The point is my fun in a game is ruined when I am constantly destroyed by others or when others sit there and brag about how their rich and spoiled.

Why don't I get a job and waste my paycheck on a game? Well, gee, lets see... could it be because my family is poor?! Oh yes! Thats it! My family is poor and any money I earn has to go to them. I don't have spare cash to spend on a stupid game that i'll someday stop playing. Maybe you've got that kind of money but I don't. So next time before you open that big fat mouth of yours you should think about what you're going to say. I deal with enough idiots in the game I do not need you starting shit with me on a forum I enjoy coming to.
