In an attempt to actually be cordial about the semi-daily uprisings, I want to make a large thread to actually take in people’s main suggestions. As in, quite literally make a megathread that will take in the vast complaints that I see literally scattered around everywhere.
This is a thread that I will update when I can, taking in the main three points of every poster who actually wants to say something to leave, and hopefully by size it will get noticed. Please, do not flame and argue with each other, as if you’re in this topic, it is most likely to help the game rather than argue amongst each other about political correctness.
So if you would please leave three complaints along with suggestions if you may, we can really get across some of the focal complaints people have currently going on. Your complaint may not be the same as everyone else’s, but if it is in your top three, it’ll come on this list.

Anyway, let me talk about my top three:
The first one is quite simply the spawn rate. It must be less stressful on the server, but such a slow respawn rate for mobs in most areas are just so snail passed that it’s actually stressful to grind certain quests: Especially the ones requiring the rarer mobs of an area. I suggest either turning back the rates to as they were in iCBT2, or making it so the respawn timer for areas is around 5 to 10 seconds.
The second one lies within the trade system. Rather, I’m not going to simply say re-enable trades as everyone should have them, etc. etc. But with how the game was made through all of the betas involving trade, making trades a very limited Token-user effect without changing some of the core features left a rather gaping hole in the game that people complain about. There’s a few ways that may alleviate it that won’t stress people out, and perhaps may just be as effective:
-
Making Limited trades/Auction but increasing them under Token status
-
Adding an interactive captcha that will counter the decoding nature of the bots
-
Have Trades available after a certain story point/banned for lower levels.
The third complaint is of the TP shop’s pricings. I know that in business, he who finds it worth will buy anything, but it seems rather bait to charge more for women than men. Granted there’s nothing wrong with this practice, but I feel as though the prices are very exaggerated. Those who bought the $10 in couldn’t even buy their female character fancy hair because of the oddly high pricing. It’s also worth noting that the Token itself isn’t worth the large ~$18 price tag per month and needs heavy fixing in regards to actually being more worth than say, a subscription service. Right now, I’d say the Token is actually worth around $8, and would need to be reworked if Trade comes back: Perhaps giving people more auction slots, more trade/ unlimited trade opportunities, no/less auction tax, among other things that heavily add up. The girl’s hair needs to be brought down, or by inverse the boy’s hair needs to be brought up to actually have it make sense, even though it is quite obvious.
Also, +1 letting the staff see this if possible.
