When you go into a store and see that a game is a $60, do you go ask the manager to lower the price so that you can afford it? Course not. If you do, there's an entirely different problem. Moreover, if that manager listens I would like you to refer me to him.

So yeah, please stop asking for lower prices. Just save up. Thanks.

Steven, you should really let others handle these sorts of subjects. You aren't in any position to make rules for us anymore.

The only place you could possibly haggle for better prices, is at a pawn shop. But I don't think they sell name changes. ):

That's kinda different from this. It's not like NGU is making a legit profit from name changes.

I'm making rules for us? No, I'm standing up for the current staff and administration. It's been made clear in the suggestion section that prices aren't going to change, and yet members continue to ask for lowering prices.

I know I'm in no position to make rules anymore, but I'm in every position to make a suggestion to the community. Asking to lower prices will devalue our point system, and permit users to constantly change their username and the like. That may sound great, but that would quickly create confusion with as to whom is who. Being staff or not being staff doesn't change common sense from being so.

Let others handle these subjects, you say? For what reason? I've made this thread on the basis that members keep asking for lower prices, even when it has been denied time and time again. This isn't meant as a slap in the face, but it's meant to say "hey, there's a reason prices are like this, let them be". Who's in the position to say this? I don't see why it matters who makes this suggestion --- common sense is common sense is common sense.

Guys, if you don't like what he said then simply don't post in here, as he is standing up for what he believes. I know you have opinions but you could keep it out of this thread and not make it turn into a flamewar and ending up getting closed.

Lets make peace. :love: :wub:

I can respect that, sorry my friend. And I'm glad that somebody has the sense to see we need the higher prices. But, don't suggestions belong in the Site Suggestions? :carling:

Sorry for sounding like a dick earlier. <3
