Guild Wars 2

Senoph I just cannot help but wonder if you would be making this principled stand if you had received the skin you wanted. Part of me just cannot help, based on the original post, the answer is no. Your dissatisfaction is not that you played the RNG game, your dissatisfaction is believing you did not get the value you wanted (hence your claim you got nothing). You did get something, many things, just not the things you wanted. And you opted to play even though you state you do not play for RNG.

Look I dumped all the gold I had into keys (30 to be exact). I did not plan on it but I saw a guildie hit a skin on the first chest he opened and thought well I’ll give it a shot. Well I got plenty but no skins, I openned 60 chests and had 9 silver left. Was I disappointed sure (it reminded me why I do not gamble when I go to Vegas). However I knew it was only a chance to hit.

And in the face of not knowing what Anet meant precisely by chance I did not presume “reasonable chance” as another poster notes. Indeed in the face of uncertainty and ambiguity you err on the side of caution and do not presume to know what they meant.

I do not disagree that Anet could have provided other avenues than the BLC content. But that is the route they took and when people played it makes it hard to be sympathetic to a principled based appeal. You played you lost others won. If you really objected to the way this content was provided why did you opt play? Again I just can’t help but think this would not be an issue for you had you gotten the “value” you felt you deserved.
