By the way, since I missed most of it, how did the whole argument over it go? Something like "We hate the fact that lurkers are getting about as much as people who actually POST in the FORUMS. You know, the whole point of the site? Being active? Oh, and you killed poll guilds but left artificial inflation?"
Yeah, something like that. Poll guilds = evil. Gotcha.
And now it's going back to the way it was before with earning gold? Instead of just logging in once per day it rewards you twice per day. Right. So um, why bother changing it in the first place? If there was a reason, based on some stats or some feedback, what was it? We never really get to hear that stuff so how can we say "Yup, they changed the gold system for this and this reason." Do we ever know? "The people complained about it," is not a reason. The people complained for a reason and we can see what it is, since they post publically.
Kinda like how you decided that releasing donation items early is actually a good thing, because you also made sure to release the best items with it so you'd get more donations in the extra time. We get that one now.
There's reasons in them thar hills. Er, gold. We just never hear about it for some reason.
Oh and

We had some problems with botting, too, so we’ve made it harder for cheaters to drive up prices with their unsavory acts.
Driving up prices is a bad thing? Are you sure?

Donation items are rare, just like diamonds (after all, no matter how popular an item is, it is no longer available when the month ends).
Those evil, evil people who drive up prices. Such terrible people they are!
