Easier Payment Options (08/23/2011)

Good news. After spending $30.00 for Crysta, I guess I'll be paying 14.85 for my main and my two mules for October. :P

So then you're admitting to being a troll?

I didn't say I wasn't going to reply, only that I wasn't going to repeat myself again.

Nice leap chief, I'm a Troll because i defend the views of those who felt they were wronged by the current crysta plan?

Anyway, I was referring to when you said "I'm not going to repeat this again", I had hoped that meant you were done with the conversation and would stop responding.

Instead i misread it, For that i apologize. Feel free to continue, I'll be happy to continue this discussion now knowing i have a good topic discussion partner. Its always more enjoyable discussing the positives and negatives of a system when you know theres someone dedicated to responding!

Still can't admit when you're wrong. At least you're consistent.

If he's always right, why would he have to ever admit that he's wrong? :P DUH

NotSureIfSerious!

But you have a point! Which is why I never admit I'm wrong ! (lies, i actually have a few times o.o)


Edit:

Oh how cute, you have a fatty fanboy club too!

Hes not trolling but you were completely in the wrong about not overpaying under the old crysta system.

I dont care how many things crysta serves, me and SE are in an agreement to pay 12.95 a month to play FFXI and not one cent over.

I said it before and i'll say it again - would SE accept 12.50/month if I used the excuse that I can only pay in round increments? No. So why should I have paid 15 bucks?

I can always admit when I'm wrong. When I'm not wrong, I don't admit it. I have declared myself wrong many times on this forum.

The originally intended Crysta to function more like the Cash in an F2P game (and I know they're publishing one, so Crysta will probably be enabled for it). Crysta was not created specifically for FFXI, or any one service.

As far as I know, not a single F2P game I've ever heard of lets you buy only the amount of Cash you need for a single item from the store, but no one complained about this in any of those games.

Of course, I guess to be fair, Crysta doesn't yet have that broad range of uses yet. I'm basically playing devils advocate by pointing out that they have a lot more planned for it.

Do not take this to mean I don't support this change. I absolutely do. It's just technically not "overpaying." It would only be truly overpaying if they took all your crysta away regardless of how much you bought. However, currently the other uses for crysta are limited, so there isn't any way to spend the leftovers.

I already know the arguement here..."but I cant buy exactly xx.95 crysta right now." Well in the future, you can specify how much you want to buy so in a couple of months it wont be a problem.

My memory is very short term, but didn't they say "specific" amount? Which could be just that you can pay exactly your monthly fee, but not that you can pay any amount. In which case you got some money lost forever. (Not a big deal, but still a flaw in the system)
