White Raven earring given out at The Rising event 2018

Lmao, yup, I just think this 80 page thread of people waaaaahing about earrings is funny when I CANT EVEN SEE THEM.

I can wear the longer ones ok, the Baron earrings for example. It's ok guys! I was just having a laugh.

That is my gripe with the face you're using. I like it, but I prefer the skinny horns since I can see my earrings easier... hence why I swapped (again).

I was original miqo when I started the game and the only thing I really miss is jewelry. Even a lot of necklaces don't stand out against the scales. But, I like the scales a lot too, so just got over the earring situation.

I understand earrings are so minor to every race unless you have really short hair or a miqote

So far in the span of ~10 pages, especially with the comment made against someone who wanted to play 1.0 and couldn't about "participation prize, doesn't count": that is absolutely lording it over someone that NYAH NYAH I HAVE IT AND YOU DON'T, AND YOU DON'T DESERVE IT LIKE I DO. The comment was incredibly rude and uncalled for.

Second, lemme just point out that people are being the biggest jerks to each other

Like seriously. To take some words from the late, great, Chester Bennington: IN THE END IT DOESN'T REALLY MATTER. Why the <kupo> does it matter if someone who played 1.0 who wasn't able to get the earrings, even if they played all the way through from 1.0-1.23b or someone who started in 2.0 who wasn't able to play at the time but maybe wanted to, get this item? Go outside, touch some grass, and calm down. Dang.

It's already been said before, if you don't care that the devs have been breaking even more of their promises that's your choice.

Don't belittle someone else because they do.

Unless something is put in to writing and the ToS is updated every single time to reflect that guarantee, then a promise is not binding. A government can promise to do a certain policy but they can quite easily change their mind, things happen. It's fine to feel strongly about certain things, but getting too emotionally involved over something that isn't actually real (i.e. earrings) can often set yourself up for disappointment.

"Sorry for the delay while we got confirmation for you all -- the White Ravens will not be obtainable in A Realm Reborn"
this is true though
it became obtainable in Stormblood

Which is only because now isn't then. ARR was the term covering everything post 1.0 when it was stated.

I'm late to the party, Not much on these forums. I played 1.0 and i got those earrings, Am i pissed about it? No, not really. They could have made new earrings, or a different rarity (color of the item) to differentiate the 2. But if it's about the "Show off" aspect then you have the Sixth Astral Era achievements to prove what you did in 1.0. These earrings were gathering dust in the armoire for 5 years so i couldn't care less.

Where is the promise that they won't release the earrings after 1.0? Where did they actually promise anything about this?

When they said the content was intended for 1.0 they likely referred to the boss, not the earrings. I seriously doubt they think a pair of earrings can clash with the story. But the presence of a npc who is dead before ARR launch certainly would. As for the earrings not being available in ARR, this is still true because they came during the SB expansion, not in any ARR patches.

You really need to stop reading things SE didn't actually say. They didn't promise anything. They only clarified that certain content won't be available during ARR.
