    People are buying the cash shop items. If they weren't then the company wouldn't pay the upkeep fees to keep the code or the system running. Just look around in game, I'll bet money you see at least 5-6 paid mounts. That right there is over 90 dollars that the company wouldn't have received otherwise.

    I have no problem with people voicing the opinion with a good argument behind it. I also think that people need to be realistic in how they are presenting it. I have yet to see one single businessman or woman that would turn down the opportunity for more profit.

    Now, if we could get a 2000 char limit I would be the happiest forum goer in the world.

    Haha yes, the limit is VERY annoying. You can just copy your post, submit under 1k and then edit/save.

    I agree, people are purchasing it. SE is getting feedback that people do like their items. Not purchasing it is some feedback, but is not as strong as the purchases. Naturally, the best way to show your disappointment then is to provide feedback like this thread. Not everyone will be upset, just as not everyone would have been upset with a $2000 PS4.

    To bring it back to another of my posts in this thread. I really want the boots from the wedding package. However, I've held off on buying that package since the marriages have launched (despite also really wanting the dress at the time). Other people threw money at it no problem, as I see them running around all the time. I imagine the other people purchasing it has had a greater impact on SE's decision than my lack of purchase .
