Yes... Yes.. Let's continue this cycle where you hoard credits then buy new discontinued items to sell at a high price to rich stakers and hoard more credits and request another batch 6 months later...
Yes I like this cycle yes
Edit: legends crashing so much was also due to the amount that were added, on the other hand, since the sale grains have seen a significant increase in price

I mean, it's up to Mike and Rapsey obviously, I'm sure they're fairly aware that the last sale went well. There's merits to each side, and I think only a very small handful of players would be truly upset if this happened again. That being said, last time there was a good reason (the server was doing very poorly and we launched an advertising campaign IIRC), and I think it could hurt future unique sales if we did these without reason. If this becomes a regular thing to the point people are thinking "well I don't need to buy these because I can just wait for the next one", then obviously the sales will slow down to the point that it's almost like we're just regularly selling rares. That's just my 2 cents, and as a disclaimer, I don't actually know how the logistics of the last sale and advertising campaign went, they may have been unrelated, but it did make sense at the time.
Just a side point, a lot of people aren't doing well financially right now, and I personally wouldn't have any events that explicitly benefit people who donate money right now. Although I suppose that's up for debate, and the owners do have to take care of themselves also, but again, just my 2 cents

^ This.
It'll eventually get to a point where players just save credits and wait for 'ultra rares'. Which will lead to a fairly big dip in donations because the price of credits will eventually crash.. pretty similar to whats happening now. I've literally seen people struggle to sell credits recently. Perhaps some new permanent items or something? But adding ultra rares "too often" won't really help the server in anyway, more so it'll help the "rich players that can hoard credits".

Big fat +1 to our prince pvm porn. Just another typical suggestion from will be ok that only benefits him. Anyone check how many credits he has saved up?

I'd say, let's put in the donor store a new item, called "The Ban Hammer". What does it do? Practically, it allows any player to ban any other player ( including themselves ) for 2 weeks. If the player uses the hammer on itself, then he gets fullbanned.
Cost? 100k donor points.
Pros? You can ban anyone.
Cons? Practically none

I do agree that the last sale definitely financially helped maybe even saved pkh, prior to the advertising campaign we had sub 30’s on at times, at our peak a couple months agoe we were north of 200’s now we’re sub 100 again at times, I’m also pretty sure majority of money raised by this sale would be directly put back into the server.
Twords people who think this is a bad thing, I am suggesting only to ever add ultra rares that are not in the game or just simply unobtainable.
@ Adam, i don’t understand why you continue to bait and flame me every forums post, rather then keeping your negativity twords yourself you post it and it’s sad, if you’re that filled with rage maybe just quit?
