Not everything is an argument, how I view things outside the game was simply to show that you will be hard pressed in trying to convince me that anyone besides me can the ability to detract value from my accomplishment be it in game or out. I am not saying people should not feel the same way as I do, I am saying that no change in itself inherently detracts value from your accomplishment, since if a change inherently did that we would have no need for this discussion since everyone would be in agreement. Only claim I am making is that no change inherently devalues an accomplishment, effort, achievement. I never made the claim that you cannot feel a change detracts from your accomplishment on a personal level. What I am saying is that your perception is yours alone, just as mine is. Makes sense? Our perception is not universal thus I feel we should not be saying one is better then the other. I know I am not conveying this well, I am trying to explain that just because we feel a certain way about a change does not mean that is the only valid way to view it.
Please understand in my view I can see how cheating and RMT can have a negative impact on a games health, but I personally do not care if cheating and RMT go on. The moment I stop enjoying the game is the moment I stop playing it. Enjoyment is why I would stop playing, and yes many reasons can influence that choice, but in my eyes it was still my choice to let such things impact my enjoyment. If that makes sense. Do I understand why some would feel cheated if exclusive items became non-exclusive? Yes I would, but I would not care. Just as I would not care if the made an Ultimate story mode that had the same rewards as those that cleared it normally. I would still choose work through it no matter how long it takes for our group to kill it.
Hope I am making some sense. I am not trying to change your mind so you think how I feel is right, since you have no reason to. That is what I am trying to get out what reason does anyone have to care about a strangers achievements. or effort that went into earning something. Sure it sucks if someone belittles what you have done, but the effect of said comment is solely based off how we view it. As I mentioned in the other thread my goal was never to change your mind on you feeling slighted by any change regarding top 100 rewards, you are free to feel what you feel. What I am trying to express is why should any stranger care about another top 100 achievement? Are we to say that those that do not care about a top 100 achievement are wrong? What I am trying to say is most things we want is based around desire, I get you want to keep items exclusive because that is your desire, just as those that want the item because that is their desire. No right or wrong view point here, but you seem to think that your view is the only one that matters. I understand why you would want it to be exclusive, does not mean I have to agree or accept it. Just as I can understand rmt and cheating can have a negative impact on a game, but if I do not let that impact my personal enjoyment it has no effect on me. I know my view is not popular, I do agree something can only bother you if you let it.
