Like what? Make more items exclusive to the cash shop?

Looking at it from a different angle, it actually makes sense for SE to do it this way - every so often you'll see yet another thread from a new player begging SE to bring back such and such special event gear that particular player missed out on, and so instead of having to make those who missed out wait a year or so for that event vendor to return, they can simply buy it off the Mogstation, and SE makes money from it as well. It's win-win in their mind.

But it isn't a win win. These items were available to players in game for free. You're only including players with means to pay for these items and the sub. Really it's a win-win-lose, considering there is a large player base that can't / refuse to pay extra for items that were once free. If you truly want a win win, why not put the items back in the game and wait? Better yet, why not put the items in the game during the event, and sell them in cash shop after the event has ended for those with the money and impatience who will pay for them? That's the real win-win-win

Bzzzt wrong idea, like EU Data Centers are going to be moved to a more suited location within the EU so EU players can have a better play EXP ^^ How do I know? Yoshida stated himself with the extra funds he'll be able to do more stuff for us.

Don't understand when people thing negative all the time.

Hear that guys?

Buy from the cash shop so SE can move the servers for EU players, because they sure as hell weren't making money with our subscriptions before right? We need to buy the new servers for them.

SE's new moto.

We can't do it unless you pay us extra for it.

I don't mind past content being part of the cash shop. There's got to be some incentive for people to maintain subs or log in for exclusive or timed events. However, I really dislike the concept of exclusive items being part of the cash shop and have a great amount of worry surrounding this.

They already have an incentive system though, it's the vet rewards... and the game itself >.>;

Yet again, assuming negative just because you don't agree with it doesn't mean you should always think negative about it. They could have done it later like much later but thanks to the Cash it can be soon bearing in mind they other things to pay for.

but thanks to the Cash

I guess I'll never be able to wrap my head around what your thinking.

Just trust me when I say that not a dime SE is making on the cash shop is being put back into the game, not a single penny.

This is plain silly. You don't like cash shop exclusives but you don't want past contents either? Why don't you man up and say you don't want a cash shop?

Well bad news, it's here to stay.
