I'm waiting for one of the ArenaNet's PR people to call the community "toxic" for complaining about this, too.They really should offer those who bought the chair a free, bigger version fitting the Charr characters.

Make it scale better with Charr and make the Charr use the animation all the other races get. Id buy it then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kitty.6219 Posted October 5, 2019 Share Posted October 5, 2019 @AgentMoore.9453 said:Oof. Bug Fix:Updated the Gem Store banner for the Legionnaire's Chair.ArenaNet, don't do that. That wasn't a bug. And honestly, even if other races looked small on a Charr chair, that would have been accurate to your lore, your world, and the people who have chosen to play Charr and pay for race-themed items like this one. You should recall the item, scale it correctly for Charr, and release it again with a short apology for any confusion. Even if you meant to release the chair this small, it was still not the right thing to do.Don't act like the picture was the mistake; I say this as someone who wants to buy stuff from you.^^^^Agreed, so much this!!I like big chairs and I cannot lie!!

Josa.5067 Posted October 5, 2019 Author Share Posted October 5, 2019 ANet didn't give me a refund yet.That means they could be changing the chair, so they wouldn't have to refund me.That, or they are just very slow with my ticket, even though a bunch of other people got their refunds already.(It was wednesday in Seattle when they got my ticket.)

Tsakhi.8124 Posted October 6, 2019 Share Posted October 6, 2019 This kind of angers me and depresses me: I believe if you advertise it, you damn better well follow through; if you screw up, fix it. Throwing the banner up there with no response, it sounds like it was half done when it was pushed out. Depressed because I know ya'll can do better. :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knomslayer.9457 Posted October 6, 2019 Share Posted October 6, 2019 Just giving my too sense on this matter. Players need to stop buying chairs, you gain nothing its useless. No chairs no complainsAnet need stop selling chairs. Its useless , there is not lore behind a chair , dont tell me have chair is your ''endgame'' having fun. This need to stop.

This need to stop.That is an incredibly selfish way of thinking. Just because you don't like chairs, doesn't mean that others can't like them.What you said can be applied to literally every cosmetic item in the gemstore, and a bunch of other things.Imagine if ANet solved the asura/charr/norn armor clipping issues by simply not making any more new armor for those races. Or even better, they could just delete those races completely. Then people couldn't complain about already existing armor either! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EMPI.4013 Posted October 6, 2019 Share Posted October 6, 2019 Them calling the banner a big fix is just them trying to stay out of any legal trouble, with the false advertisement stuff. They are willing to go through the lengths of slightly covering a thread, changing a banner and calling it a bug, all for a chair that was to small for its theme. Also with the way some devs act over the recent years, makes me think that they are to stubborn to accept what the community wants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Palador.2170 Posted October 6, 2019 Share Posted October 6, 2019 Well, request for a refund was sent in before they opened on Thursday. That's two business days down, but someone else in this thread is already up to three. I wonder how long it'll take, if they refund me at all.
