But here is the larger issue that I believe you are missing, whether the case is about the drop rate (Which is incredibly low) and Basic economics, and how all this ties together.
You have arbitrarily changed the rates, then you are claiming player stupidity (in an insulting way) by saying that all of us who have noticed the exact same thing is not a large enough sampling, and that we are just complainig for the sake of complaining. You have decided to change your game (AgeII) enough that those who support YOUR BUSINESS has pretty much abandoned those servers, cannot be enticed to pay more money for coins, and so are now at a point where they feel that the Evony game has ran its course.
You changed your business model by deciding to make it Facebook mandatory for AgeII- A serivce that is completely free and who, guess what, only entices people who really just want to play for free.
Your company made the decision; as well as the decision to take nearly every suggestion that true paying players have made for months and months. I do not have to be a math whiz or an insider to take a gander at your balance sheets to see what has been happening.
You guys made these decisions to change your business model. Would you rather entice people to spend because they want to, or because they HAVE to pay money to have a shot at the game, because that is what you have done.
I am a paying player, I bought coins in AgeII despite the problems, the glitches, the loss of game coins from the glitches. We have all tried logic, begging, cajoling; joking. Everything, all to no avail. You want to be profitable, We all want you to be profitiable. But whos fault is it if you have had 20 million people take a look at your game, and 19.8 million walk away dissatisfied by the changes?
This is not an attack, it is a plea. We all love this game, we all feel that we have a part of it. It is a social network site. Some of these people have become friends that I chat on the phone with, that we communicate with for over a year. You have a rabid fan base and yet, you are the one making these decisions.
