A priceless thread that illustrates how IP2 functions and treats its customers.
TLDR of the Vault Compensation Chapter:
1- It is the customers’ fault if they assumed something happens periodically just because it’s been happening periodically for a very long time
2- Vault Events (that ‘coincidentally’ seem to have fallen out of rotation since the Dragonite Gnome was released) may now be used as compensation by the offending party, with the caveat that the injured party must trust the offending party that the compensation is an ‘Extra Vault Event’, with no way for the injured party to ever corroborate this.
3- The unprecedented Vault Offer during Arena Weekend has evidenced that IP2 deliberately (with the usual programming shortcomings) removed a scheduled Vault Weekend, while the mods lectured customers about ‘spoilers are not binding’.
Krinklemess is just the top of an ever-growing pile that includes Weavergate, the Dungeon Rework Fiasco, and Kurandara Release, where this company has given enough information for any potential spenders to go into a financial relationship with IP2 with their eyes wide open.
