I never said they don't have the right to complain, I think it's poor form to complain about a gift but they have the right to complain all they like.

I understand why they are complaining, I even sympathise with their situation.

I just don't agree that they should get compensation.
This is a forum and I am expressing my opinion.

In my opinion it is a bit ungrateful to complain about zero upkeep as a part of a company wide promotion.
The war horn, Excalibur, amulets, 10 cents were all gifts just like the free upkeep, Evony didn't have to do any of it.

Vesta give 50% upkeep and Evony (as far as I'm concerned) could compensate them and I wouldn't give two hoots. But the creator of this thread started by saying he paid for a Vesta and wants to be compensated.

If you apply a Vesta and at some point during the time that the Vesta is applied your upkeep was more than 50% you deserve to be compensated.

If you apply a Vesta and suddenly upkeep is zero and you come onto a forum asking to be compensated, it is my opinion that some people have the right to disagree.

Finally, I am truly surprised that on this forum the members give red rep when someone disagrees with a post. All the other forums I participate in, that have similar (member based) feedback, this is reserved for rude or inconsiderate posts. I suppose because this is a forum for a "War Game" it is acceptable to flame and troll but to disagree is just not tolerated.
