They enacted it on the Bioware Social forums for Mass Effect and Dragon Age. I assumed this forum would have gotten the same treatment.

No doubt. You forget, it's against the community rules (Not forum rules, community rules) to complain about a game that you want to see get better.

You go right on ahead and make your opinion heard...games like this do not change without people like us making our discontents heard. Sheep will always merrily follow whatever they are told to follow. They have no backbone and they accept anything that is done to them or told to them. Sorry you fanbois don't like it, I'm just telling it like it really is.

Clearly they are opposites
That's just the thing, Andryah does not insult you (well, I have seen her do it on a fraction of cases, but in general she does not insult) and she uses logic. What I see people doing in here is being rude, name calling or sticking some kind of tag on the OP in an attempt to make their opinion look like she has no credibility and revert to more name calling when her opinion does not agree with yours.

Andryah and I almost never agree. I can count on one hand how many times her and I actually agreed...but in the end, we always agree to disagree and we respect each others opinions.

What you guys are doing to the OP is simply uncalled for and is nothing like how Andryah argues her point of view...and even though she uses logic and is calm and collective, that does not always make her right. Sometimes it's simply a point of view and there is no right or wrong.

The OP is upset with Bioware charging us for a congratulations to us...which even though it is only 10Cc is pretty darn petty. Like it or not, she is not the only one who feels this way.

That would be like me coming over to your house for your birthday, then showing you the gift I bought you, but telling you that you can not have it unless you give me 2 dollars. What a crock and I for one agree with the OP. I am sick of Bioware having their Hoover Vacuum cleaner sucking out my pockets for every little thing they add to the game...it's not only gotten stupid, it has been stupid. And like you, I too am entitled to my opinion...which so happens to agree with the OP.

I cant wait for the rage on these forums when people figure out they are being nickel and dimed 10CC per character for a one day title offer.

Here is 500 CC for appreciation. Now spend 180cc on titles for your 18 characters, and a couple thousand on Treeks. You are welcome.

underwhelming.

10cc for the title, 5cc to unlock it in Collections. 15cc the way I see it.

But, by all means.. please feel free to spend the 180 to buy one for each of your characters.

To Wraiven - There are plenty of people on this forum that talk about the problems of this game in a very compelling and constructive manner. I've had many good discussions with those people The OP is not one of them. If you have a negative opinion to share, by all means share it. I've done it myself a few times, and had the usual suspects jump on me as if I was some kind of troll, even though I've always been one of the more positive supporters. Whether you're defending the game or criticizing it, there are good and bad ways to do it. Some people will just respond with typical snark and condescension no matter what, but there are definitely some posters who paint a big target on their forehead.

I had nothing against the 500 CC. Did I wish it was something more useful/wanted? Yes. Seeing as how it's really just code, I don't see how they couldn't have given, I don't know, free hypercrates away to subs.

Yes. I get it. You blindly think things change and you shouldn't be against it, and this is just how it has to be, so you accept it. Well, other's don't want to accept that being a sub now just means, oh hey, you get to level a little faster.

What would you say if they decided "Oh hey! We have three new events and the old events coming back, but you have to pay 1000 CC to join in the events now." that's they way things are looking to go towards to quite a few people, and the more you say "I accept this and this." the more they think "We can get away with this and this."
I disagree... I am in the camp that the normal 500 cc stipend is not free. The 500cc they just gave us though, I believe is free. This thread is about people think 500cc wasn't a good sub appreciation thing. Some people wanted a speeder or something along those lines... if they gave you a speeder, instead of the 500cc, would you say that was not free as well?

The bottom line, for me anyhow, is that it doesn't matter if you call it free or not. They did not have to give us anything but yet they did. I think it was a nice thing to do.

I wont be buying it at all, but its the principal of the matter. 180 coins or 10 or 15 its all the same really.

Giving people currency they can only spend in one place and then overpricing the things they want is not really appreciation, its gouging.

Especially after hyping it up ! Hun I am going to do something wonderfull this year !
Its a little bit of a different scenario here. You are talking loved ones versus a company. Do you expect a company, that collects 15 bucks a month for service, to give you like 200 bucks in cartel coins as a thank you?
