For once I feel like the majority of the player base is standing together on an issue like this.OFC there's the "whales" and the people who will defend ANET, which is understandable. They're not monsters, they just have issues with communication and addressing our concerns.I am one of those players who have been playing since headstart. I've probably spent thousands throughout the years (which I have no shame in because GW2 is like one of my few hobbies) just to improve my experience and I've never had any regrets until I saw how these mount contracts worked....I reallllly hope we get a solution. Not only to just do away with RNG boxes in the future, but for them to try to meet us halfway on something to compensate out violation of trust and money. Really sucks. Love this game, love the company, community, my guild...But where do we draw the line for ANET and make them realize that stuff like this, isn't okay.I know for me at least, I've strayed away from a plethora of eastern mmo's (really fun ones too) because of the greed that all the devs ultimately fall into.For those who are happy about the mounts, awesome ! Nothing against ya~But those like me who just want to be treated like the dedicated players/customers that we are, I think we deserve better when it comes to communication and solutions. Rather than ignoring our cries and concerns and putting more RNG shiny stuff in our faces. Gee. ~$50 USD for a new expansion where I get all basic armors with no particles effects and basic mounts with 1 dye channel.BUT WAIT. LETS ADD PoF THEMED STUFF TO THE CASH SHOP AND MAKE IT LOOK SO MUCH BETTER THAN WHAT WE CAN OBTAIN IN THE GAME THAT WE ALREADY PAID FOR (i.e mounts, weapon skins, outfits)What a kitten joke. I still can't get over it nervous-cry-laugh
