It all fairness you should either have send this email on the last day of September, counting for October purchases, or make it effective in November. Many have been spending money on gold they used in the war in the weekend, even bought a few vaults on discount for the LTQ and whatever comes in the next couple of weeks.

Had you send out the email just before the war, the points would have been much lower as everybody would have been holding off. The anger you expected was a different one, then the one you got, but why are we not surprised?

The things Gree throw at the users will make people angry, disillusioned, quit, hurt your brand, play other games, play for free. I think it's time you sit down and say what can we do for the players, and not what can we do against the players!

Only place I have seen more frustration is in EA forum, and that's certainly not a good second place.
I am becoming more and more convinced that the company and game are some sort of clinical psychological research project, and the current MO is seeing just how much the users will tolerate. The rampant hilarity of how they screwed up the previous battle and now changing the agreement in the most unfair way/time possible really leaves few other options.

The best part is the concept that this is being done to balance out the competitive nature of the game. But with the 5K and 10K bonuses staying the same, do you really think the people buying that much will spend less? Or the stat items will suddenly go back to 300/300 being incredibly badass?

What this will do is make the very top players even more untouchable than they are now and crush the middle class.
