    TSO Breaking News!

    Do not speak of anything against the Terms of Service in this thread please, We want to keep the thread alive "legally" and still get the word out.

    German servers received a 3x gem sale and that at the same time, the US servers had a 50% more sale.

    (and reason why not to go against Terms of Service)

    This Thread is not intended to create boycotting or any other type of violation to the Terms of Service. So please, be on your best behavior.

    We (a community) have came to you BB for answers. We have recieved nothing but threatening responses now. instead of running with the Terms of service in your hands, can we get a reasonable explanation as to why this would happen during a Server Vs Server event. We all understand that the gem sales will not be fair and that different regions have different reasons ( bb_effiluna stated "Sales vary by region based on a variety of internal factors and metrics related to the individual economies of each region"). So during a Server Vs Server Event, why even have a gem sale? if The settlers online cant keep the gems fair throughout the board, then why compare servers to servers when Gems are the main currency. I see two options to this.

    one) BB does not host any Gem sales during future Server vs Server Events.

    two) BB no longer hosts Server vs Server events.

    The Settlers Community, your thoughts and concerns are what these boards are here for. please let everyone know in the most professional manner that you can, without going against the Terms of Service.

    Thank you -
    Serenity

    Thank you Epsilon for getting this up. Well said.

    As a paying player, I do find this a bit distressing. During an event that relies on the maintenance of large amounts of resources, this would appear very skewed to ensure the victory of one server over the rest, not just over US servers. I have never really been bothered by any previous "skewing" that has occurred because I have never seen a large effect being created by it. This, however, does not bode well for BB in my universe. The level 45 to 50 players in my guild have burned thru all of their excess resources to create balloons for this event and are scraping the bottom of their virtual barrels to create more. We had tons of excess!

    BB, I think you should look at your intentions for a server vs server game and evaluate what has occurred.

    Thank you.

    The Reason is probably simple..
    That server is not buying Gems at the pace we are
    so they need a bigger incentive to get them to spend some money
    we are still buying at a good pace here so we need less incentive.

    I get your point about during an event
    but really there are only a few who care
    life is to short to worry about the small stuff
    Game on !

    I am calm. I am Hopeful. Now, I am Angry!

    They STILL haven't even messaged the players their mistake???

    Ok, now, back to my nice and gentle self.

    We the players:

    Request without any rage, a response from the BB's to answer these accusations, with all speed and accuracy, a repair on this accident, and repay the players, as necessary for the benefit of The Settlers Online, and the players alike.
