no matter how many skills one gets they shouldnt be able to steal stuff off of someone who has purchased it from the website . i purchased 2 of the packs and now after getting attacked lost all of the items that i spend 30$ US and 1 set that i had for barely 20 mins this should be changed so it doesnt happen kinda makes it unfair for those who wish to help the developers buy purchasing items from the online store

If you wish to help the devs you can also buy silver which goes directly into your bank which is safe money until you decide to use it. You can then use that money to buy the other purchasable items. Making anything in the game untouchable ruins the idea of the game. You should just be more careful and use the bought items on characters that will never leave the walls, like a farmer.

I don't know why unique items like the thanksgiving stuff should not be available to the buyer one per server.

Because once server transferring is possible you'd have 3 for the price of one?

But in life people can't steal what god gave to a person. And a table with chairs don't even give an advantage in game.

Of course they do. How else can I have a romantic dinner with Mushibag otherwise

It goes against the design characteristics that the devs follow.

I do agree that purchaseable clothing should break on KO/Theft/Death or some such to prevent raiders from just murdering noobs for clothing and then getting it all without ever needing to support the game.

Because everyone knows if you're wearing something fancy and a raider walks by, you're a dead pilgrim.

I'm really torn on the issue. Part of me believes that clothing bought in the cash shop should just not be lootable because it's one of those issues where people need to be saved from themselves. The other part of me thinks that anyone who wanders around in the world wearing fancy clothes is asking to get mugged if they can't defend themselves. It's like being the obviously wealthy guy wandering through bandit infested woods alone and unprotected. People tend to take things for granted and forget that this is a bad neighborhood where people absolutely will kick your ass to steal your shoes, so to speak.

I'd say that if you run into a PKer you're dead no matter what you wear, having fancy clothes won't make you any deader.
