    Just logged in and saw the Spider I paid for can't be traded.

    It now has the same value to me as the item says. No value.

    And that's the value of the sub now. No value.

    I don't care if some get left as tradeable, as the mask is. We keep getting kicked in the teeth, and no trade in the sub is where I draw the line.

    This is news to me, but then I don't trade rewards.
    Does it apply to ALL rewards or certain ones ?

    Yeah. I noticed that. I couldn't put the damn thing in a bag or chest for starters. That's what I DO when i plan on storing something for a time. I had to drop it off in the bank instead. Using up more bank slots.

    Again.


    Not sure when. At some point I'm going to have to stop putting crap in my bank.

    And there are only two options available now.

    Destroy the 'rewards' or stop my subscription.

    Three options actually.

    I can buy more bank slots.

    ::sigh::

    Really people?

    Doesn't matter if they are traded or not.

    You can't put it into a bag or chest.

    So how do we store them for future use?

    At the bare minimum, buying a no-trade item should automatically come with an additional bank slot.

    They could tag them as Heritage. Then they are no trade, but don't take up a bank space. @Chris?

    If it is a pet I would place it on a lot as a decoration until something gets figured out, nbd.

    I was so sad when I noticed this. I really wanted the spider for my alt (different account). :-(

    Or, no trade items don't use a bank slot.

    The mask isn't no-trade because it can be salvaged for an eternal pattern.

    No-trade heritage items already don't count against your bank item total.

    [edit] It looks like only heritage items don't count. Sorry, my mistake.

    My last sub also on two accounts but I’ve been thinking about this before this change .

    Loosing faith in the project all the devs seam to be part time with their own projects and it’s a one man Chris show. No wonder he is always sick poor guy.

    I’ll wait for this huge announcement they have been teasing for months but it’s feeling grim to me.

    Here's what they keep saying:

    • "When people leave the game they sell all their stuff and that hurts us."

    What they should be saying:

    • "When people leave the game that hurts us, what are we doing that is causing it?"

    What is their logic behind this "no trade" of reward items ?
    What is their concern ?
    I am the one who paid for it, and I should be able to do whatever I wish with it (my logic).
    Oh, I forgot.... "logic" has no place here, never has.

    Chris said they don’t want to complete with these people quiting for future sales.

    Aka if u have something cool and u quit that item is removed from the game and any new player waning it will have to buy from portal.

    I don't think they are going to have to worry too much about competing for future sales, or any sales by this time next year.

    They have no clue how to run a business, and even less on what their customers want.

    That's beyond the scope of what they can consider. Too busy building a game the way they want to, instead of one that enough people enjoy to make people quitting a non-issue.

    They should be saying both of those things. They've finally addressed the silly situation of competing with customers for sales, they need to continue addressing the game play issues around retention now.

    Chris said new people were leaving because of the high prices items were being sold for, not games play issues. There's no metric for that.

    Edit: I really feel bad for people who paid over $500 to move their PoT to new lands when people are now leaving the game.
