You miss the point, as it's the concept of the matter at hand, and the fact that you are forced (yes forced) to use the online shop. I don't want the BMP for the weapons as I have nice skins for my characters. I want it to inject some life into the game.

Like it or not, that really is no better a reason to give it to you.

It doesnt matter what we would have or wouldnt have gotten. Like i am said before you are all treating this as some kind of expansion like Gwen or even SF. It was a promotion what part of promotion dont you get. Now this promotion is over.

you're saying i'm wrong for saying they'll get more money from selling it on the store. you explain why i'm wrong by saying the amount of money they gain won't be much for NCSoft standards (which i personally don't know, since i don't know the scale of people who would buy it/the price they'd put it at, and frankly i'm surprised you fell you do).

I said they'd get more money from it, thats also what you said.

I'm confused.

No. And there are plenty of valid reasons why not, as provided by many others in this thread. However you're too dam ignorant to accept that because all you care about is some silly new skins. It's a shame we actually have valid reasons to purchase the BMP seperately for the same price you spent in the online store to get it, whereas you have no good, un-selfish reasons to deny us that chance.

What is runescape, never heard of it. By the way I am not so immature kid, the people who are immature all the people who are complaining about not being able to gain access to the BMP, and feel it should be reoffered for sale so they can buy it.

To them I say too bad, it was up for 4 long months and then they had reminders two weeks before it expired, grow up and learn to live with your chioce.

It is fun though to call people losers and see them get pissed, I enjoy getting a rise out of people.

But anyway I am tried of these threads, this is like the sixth one, enough already, Anet said NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

See? it doesn't work. it's a crappy out to try to guilt people into making yourself feel better.
Like I said, I'm not particularly bothered about missing out on it.
I just see no reason it shouldn't be made more widely available. The fact people like you continue to call others "jealous" of not having it, only proves my point.

Guild Wars is not this fantasy "global product" you've created (yes I'm sure all the Japanese are going to know what the TPS Golem & Drakes on a Plane is about. Katamari Damaci was the epitome of obscure Japanese games, guess they can't sell it here.. oh wait, maybe it has to do with business instead) ANET sell it where they can, when they can, within their means. Gaile gives reasons why things happen the way they did.
Katamari Demaci was not released in Europe.

To those still complaining, if you don't think the promotion was fair, after given several months to obtain the damn thing, and just because you want some awesome skins that I currently have and you don't, well that's a shame on you. We're the unique players. If everyone had the skins, it wouldn't be cool anymore. So, to the thousands that did get the pack, let's go play! To those without it, well...too bad.

You answered that for me. Thank you very much.

EDIT: Oh and, another poster above me ranting about his new skins and how that's all anyone cares about. How typical.

Here's an idea!

LET PEOPLE BUY THE BONUS PACK for $10! However, they get no special skinned weapons. Let's see how people fly with that.

The amount of sheer ignorant, immature and completely clueless people on this forum amazes me. The age demographic surely can't be any higher than around 16 on average, for 70% of people on this forum.

What would that prove exactly? Is anyone denying the fact that what they want is the weapons?

The elitism by some people here really bothers me (and I have the Bonus Pack!)

It's sad that the main pleasure people seem to get is that they have something not everyone else does...

Reminder: it is possible for this to be released later. If that happens, don't be surprised to get your face rubbed in it.

I won't ever use the online store (I've seen too many of the horror stories around here) so selling it in a physical store would be great.

There are other circumstances that can stop people getting the BMP! Like mine, I couldn't use my credit card at the time because I was, and still am, in the middle of sorting out a major problem. Some complete **** in Brazil has cloned my card and racked up just shy of £18,000 credit!

So, even though I'd have been perfectly happy to shell out on say three new character slots to qualify for the BMP I couldn't! I'd be more than happy to spend the money at a later date, when all this crap with my credit card is sorted out, to get the BMP, but I can't do that either as the time frame to qualify for it has passed.

That's one more week of fun you get, and we don't.

Fine with me.







Oh wait, did i just call your bluff because you'd expect these "whiners" to just want new skins? Too bad because i, like others, am actually serious.

You're trying way too hard to make the people who don't see anything wrong with this seem like spoiled brats, when fact of the matter is the ones being childish here are the ones who are complaining because they didn't get it.

For whatever reason it may be they believe themselves entitled to something that they didn't earn. But just because you wanted to but couldn't, or came in too late to participate doesn't entitle you to it any more than those who are having second thoughts about not purchasing stuff to get it.

We don't always get what we want. Accepting this fact and moving on with your life is more mature than throwing a fit everytime you miss out on something that you want.
