Actually I am just unsatisfied with only Veteran Pack with the 30-days token receive the benefit from this compensation. Now the Veteran Pack basically include free 99TP while Beginner Pack does not get any. If I knew this coming I would just buy Veteran Pack instead of Beginner Pack. I really hope that that 15-days Token from Beginner Pack can receive either 50TP or even just extend for another 15-days to make it doubled so that its fair. =/ too bad I dont think IMC see this problem at all.
I don’t see how anyone in their right mind can think that people who hoarded like 50 tokens deserve thousands of TP in compensation… there really needs to a cap.

IMC should still have a week or so if am not wrong…
It doesn’t matter how much you’re selling the tokens for, the only thing matters is that you sold your tokens at a price you thought was fair and justified whatever real money you spent on it. Nobody forced anyone to sell tokens. You sold them because you valued silver over your tokens.
It makes no sense for anyone to get compensated for something they’ve already sold to another that’s now worth half as much to buy.
That’s not a problem at all honestly. You’re already getting a bunch of extra stuff with beginners pack. If you use ur event token you get 7 days extension. You also have 190 tp to spend which gets you another token + whatever else you want. The value of those packs are worth the price.
unless you live in the us, in which case its still pretty pricy.
Agreed. So there’s no need for TP compensation, is there?
I can’t say I would be for a cap myself, on principle.
That said, I don’t get it either. For someone that put the game down untill IMC gets their act together, a poorly thought out decision like this doesn’t really inspire hope in the game’s future.
They say they want to give compensation to those that spend their TP…okay, fair enough. But then give a compensation that rewards those that bought tokens with silver…and does nothing for those that spend their TP.
Makes no sense.

It makes no sense either that you comment, even tho I gave an argument that’s pretty important; which you ignored.
Tokens dont instantly have half the value they did before, in fact currently the token prices are higher then they ever were, as a result of the announcement.
Tokens were previously price capped. Supply was already far exceeding the demand, and with the price limit in place it was impossible for it to drop below that limit. So if tokens had been 99 TP before they still would of sold for the same exact amount of silver.
And it makes even less sense for someone to get compensated for something that didnt even affect them. Why should anyone that bought a token with silver receive compensation? They did not spend their reallife cash on them. And they would of payed exactly the same amount of silver regardless.
That would be like:
SA server has latency issues, server crashes.
EU server gets compensation as a result, SA server gets nothing.
I think it’s unfair for me. I bought 2 founder packs, I used my 30 day token that ended yesterday, I won’t get any compensation for it, I had to use my 60-day token today to get my bonuses, I won’t get any compensation for it because it’s an event token.
I spent around 100€ in packs mostly because of the token and the TP of course, and I didn’t get more than around 600TP that I used in costumes and enchanting scrolls, and saved a bit to get a token and sell it in case I needed the money really bad.
Now, the token is around 550k-600k. For a high lvl player that’s like half a day of grinding, without counting the lucky drops, everyone knows that getting silver in this game is not hard, so I actually think it’s cheaper than it should be.
Now a person that most likely joined the game no more than a few weeks ago and never paid for any TP to the company is getting TP just for playing, and not only that, a lot of TP, since people is easily buying big lots of tokens.
I feel fooled, since I wouldn’t have bought a second pack or even not the first one either if I have known that it was that easy to get TP in game and a token too. I could have gotten the same stuff I got just for doing what I’m already doing, like everyone and without sacrificing real money.
So yeah I think that if you were in my shoes and other TP buyers shoes you would feel fooled too.
TLDR: You paid real money for TP, but now OH surprise you didn’t need to because you could have waited to get free TP in-game.
Last salty comment: Now in some weeks everyone will be around in their fancy costumes and they won’t be costumes anymore, but uniforms since everyone will look the same.
Thanks for fooling real money spenders IMC!

Irrelevant. no one forced you to sell those token at 300k. If you decide to do it, you have only your shortsightedness to blame.
And it makes even less sense for someone to get compensated for
something that didnt even affect them. Why should anyone that bought a
token with silver receive compensation? They did not spend their
reallife cash on them. And they would of payed exactly the same amount
of silver regardless.
Real life currency lol I’m sorry but you’re living in the digital age. People put value on fictional currencies. Bitcon, steam money, ingame cash, rare objects… That’s why gold selling is a thing. That’s why party hat from runescape is worth hundreds of dollars on playteractuion. People take times into farming silver. Time = money.
Regardless of real or fictional, when you sold your token you thought the ‘fictional’ money was worth the value of your “real” currency. Just because one is ingame money and one is real money doesn’t make this less of a monetary transaction.
It’s very childish to think your 'real life money" is worth somehow more when you’re the one who pretty much traded real life money for fictional currency.
Now the token that you sold is worth half as much, but it somehow makes sense for you to get compensated rather than the person who paid you twice you should’ve gotten in silver? Lol nope.
And they would of payed exactly the same amount of silver regardless.
Assumptions that holds no water. Cheaper token = more supplies, which means the value goes down. economy 101.
That would be like:
SA server has latency issues, server crashes.
EU server gets compensation as a result, SA server gets nothing.
Completely bozo analogy.
Firstly SA server lagging has zero correlation to EU server.
Following this logic, it would be like token price drops to half, but everyone who didn’t buy or own a token get compensated, which isn’t what happened.
There was a transaction that took place between the players who bought token with cash, and the players who bought them with silver.
Completely different things.
Player bought with cash traded their token for enough silver they thought was worth their value in dollars. They are no longer token owners, even if they did buy them with real money.
They thought their ‘real money’ was worth 1m or 2m in silver, so they traded them away.
therefore it makes zero sense to compensate them.
Token Prices now have gone higher than before. I’ve seen people buying for 550k. Actually sold Token on Market before the announcement for only 450k. Prices of Token will be higher because players will have few/no TP left on their account since IMC won’t sell TPs only. The only source of TP now is the Beginner’s Pack which only gives about 160 TPs (not sure). With the price getting lower in TP, you can only buy 1 Token on that Beginner’s Pack. With that thing in mind, sellers will sell Tokens at a much bigger price since it will be rare now. The only thing TPs will rise (again) is because of the compensation. If IMC implements their plan, all people who used Tokens that time including those who bought it from market will have 97 TP plus 5 Free TP which means they will be able to buy 1 each and sold it for 550k which is 100k bigger from the price of Token before. The only solution i’m eyeing for this is that IMC should’ve just extended the Token and not distribute TPs and people who bought Tokens through TPs won’t whine anymore. That, would be a win-win situation for both parties.
