Literally people qqing about their hard-grinded pixels not being worth as much.
Such impressive achievements being undermined.

Oh wait.

Really? Looks like you need to work on comprehension too.

Especially since it's only made me more pixels.

There's a part of you that knows I'm right. You know that they should have left those mini's alone and just introduced new ultra rare mini's. Then those asians stay valuable and everyone has a shot at new ones and can maybe trade up.

Maybe what most people are liking is that it's screwing the so called "rich". Were you jealous of them? You couldn't afford a kanaxai? That sucks. Hope you feel better now.

Are you daft? You try correct peoples' grammar, but lack basic comprehension skills. However people got their asian mini's is irrelevant. But most paid large sums for theirs. Just because many can't afford to pay those prices, doesn't mean they should get a random chance at getting one. It's devaluing them. It's also being lazy. They said it takes very little effort to make miniatures out of full sized creatures. There seems to be a fair amount of creatures that still don't have a mini. Are there any that you would like to see? Wouldn't it be nice if they made new mini's and added some new ultra rare minis. Or is it better give out old ones and ruin other peoples investments?

Life isn't fair, right? Well if they took that initial approach, we wouldn't be about arguing about this.

Anyways, lots of money to be made in the short term. Get to it. Guess my kuuns and event minis are going up cuz those were limited time promotions, right? No one trusts this company lol.

Your post is exactly why we're all laughing at you.

I nearly fell off the chair when I saw this:

After feroes's 5x pandas, now we got 13 kanaxais, and whats next?!

This game seems really fun now!!!

Anet sees that people dont like the fact that there are so many stuff rare in a way that noone else has even 1 chance to get it free, like others did

nothing bad happens to the good feelings one has from winning contests and such and being rewarded with such rare mini for all that work... most prolly even left GW now, waiting for GW2

so the "i got something noone else can get" is mostly gone anyway, as those people most likely dont play anymore due to the age of the game

now that we get these mini's with a very small chance, more people can become happier, and those insane prices finally go down toward a bit closer to normal prices

the only place in GW which will be less popular, is DoA

ps. man, am i glad most of the elitism will leave to join GW2, too

give people a minipet while others never even had the chance to get em unless they'd move to asian countries, and they get angry, cuz they never had even the chance (which is indeed unfair)

now give people a tiny chance to get 1 random one, and people cry out elitism, which makes no sense imo.... it IS unfair that they got certain things

i got a ceratadon (spelled right?) cuz i was on time, but for all i care, nicholas in pre may give it from his gifts..... and i sold it for a small price, as there was no HoM

hey, that'd be fun, mini panda obtainable from nicholas (not in pre) while he asks 5 ecto's for each present (joke)

anyway, now that the game is going to be very empty (not 100% as some stay), they just give it all, look at the 7th aniversary.... speaking of which, i never saw anyone "what??? you give people hound of balthazar pet, but they can obtain it after the event too???? unfair!! i wanna have something others cant get!!" and such

i'm not here to pick a fight or offend people, so i wont reply on this anymore, just wanted to make a point more clear

i'm glad Anet gives everyone a chance of getting the mini's we can get from 7th bday
i ahve 2 chars now which have to wait half a year or so to get the first 7th bday, and the rest of my chars have to wait even longer.... so GW2 will be out when i get 1 7th bday pres.

*hoping for 1 eye of janthir and panda*

quit your whining lol, glad they did this, giving everyone a chance to get one. Plus I'm enjoying myself watching you asian mini owners cry about it.

Wait, what, correcting people's grammar? In this thread? I have no idea what you're talking about... but then I suspect that you don't either, so at least we're on the same page!
Most of the rare/asian minis currently in the game (excluding the current 7th year present ones, and any duped minis that might have survived Anet's wrath) were given to players via a lucky draw... yes, they weren't earned initially, the vast majority were given to players via RNG... so yes, random chance... do you even know what you're babbling about here?

Being drunk and angry might seem like fun, but it's no way to go through life.

(I say this because you're clearly ANGRY, and you're not usually this stupid, so I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and blame some outside influence).

Anyway, whatever... enjoy your QQ, I certainly am

did you also shed tears when the gwc winners minis were given out in other contests? should anet just make new stuff everytime it may affect someones "investment" in time/money/skill? should they have made new lux/lurz after the double donation change? should they have made a new survivor instead of making the existing one reset on death? should they have made a new ldoa instead of making the existing one easier? should they have made a new glad title instead of making it points per wins? peoples "investments" get devalued in favor of more enjoyment for all constantly. i am surprised it has taken you 7 years into this game to realise this happens.

and you're right, life isn't fair. you're just going to have to deal with the fact that minis that have been handed out randomly in the past are.....

wait for it.....

being handed out randomly again.

snodaard · May 12, 2012, 10:00 PM // 22:00

how about stay on topic abit?
I'd rather see this thread open for a while so we can see more screens and evidence of every single asian mini, then a bunch of kids destroying a topic.

tnx

HanSolo · May 12, 2012, 10:01 PM // 22:01

I personally don't like this. I think it's cool to have items in games that are discontinued.

He probably did not see the other SS of someone getting an Oni from a present and it only proves Oni drops.

If they kill everything I love about gw1------> Play D3

I hope theyre happy when i send them a sack of crap in the mail the day an IG pops out of one of these huge 7th year abomination birthday presents. Its the least I can do to thank them for 7 years of loyalty and gameplay.

They'll never dupe my echovalds or broadswords! Muahaha

No they should've done the same as every birthday & came up with something new & original. They knew all yr 7th yr Bday was coming so why didn't they leave a team do that small thing? Yes the only ones happy about this are the less fortunate that couldn't get the mini of their dreams or merchants for that matter. Personally I think it's lame of Anet to not be prepared.

I have yet to see actual proof however. I'll look around abit now for that. Being a pre player it'll be quite something to see another pre Panda or even Kanaxai tho! Very sweet indeed!

Louis1976 · May 13, 2012, 12:57 AM // 00:57

I find it funny how people still care about elitism and prestige in this game. I mean, in 6 months from now, who will give a RED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GO if you have a Panda or not? You'll have a big epeen, but nobody to show it off to as GW will be empty.

Why do you think there were tonics for 6th year? because the HoM doesn't need to take any new pets. Besides they offered new pets with WiK and WoC. They wanted to get more pets in circulation for players looking to max their halls. Some of the same people here complaining about rare pets being in 7th year gifts are the same people that put down others for liking PvE over PvP. Freaking out about a virtual economy in a virtual world is border line crazy.
