Curse

Sure, why not. I've never understood the people who complained when other people had to pay for the BMP they'd gotten for free, and this is exactly the same thing.

I stopped hating others having what I have when I was 3.

The whole concept of having unique exclusive items requiring spending extra real world money is terrible in all games, and I've been always opposing that.
But as we unfortunately have some of those, at least don't screw the people who paid for their exclusiveness.

^^^This for me^^^

Also, I wouldn't mind them putting a "All Past Festival Hat" pack in the online store for $5 or something as well. That way, those who never got a chance to get those hats can, and it will increase revenue for development on GW2 and continuation of GW1.

I, personally, won't buy anything, but there are people who will, so these people can pay for the items, and that will increase revenue for ANet. I am thinking completely on a income/outcome idea here, and not on "exclusiveness of the items" like others are, of course.

I wouldn't mind them adding other things, like 20 new "exclusive" cape designs, in order to improve their income. But, like I said, I won't be buying any of it myself.

Of course, mind you, I would not support this at all if GW was a monthly fee game like those that do this kind of thing.

I think its something they could add. i would also like to see the few other items that i don't think were preorder but other permotions not the minis but acaul in game items.

I love buying things

So, since the Tengu Mask was part of a pre-order event, would that be up for grabs under a system like this?

No, it would only be for the weapons.

Making terrible ideas is easy and anyone can do it. I can add a bunch here, following this thread's original idea and just as bad:

*add Divine Aura to the online store! Show a big middle finger to old fans that bought the CE!
*Sell a complete collection of event hats, including future ones, so you never need to participate in any event ever!
*Sell customized versions of rare promotional minipets in store! Who cares about people who won them in consests, making money > everything else!!
...
while anyone could make even worse ideas with no trouble, the point is not to make them at all... enough of that crap.

MithranArkanere · Sep 21, 2008, 08:44 PM // 20:44

Those are good ideas too. Make a thread for them.
