The Buy Silver button

Postby Nikixos » Sun Apr 19, 2015 8:52 pm

From new players i've recieved some feedback that the button "Buy silver" can confuse some people to think that the only way to obtain silver is through real life cash.
Maybe the name of the icon should be changed, some ideas that come to mind are
"Cash shop" "Acess Store" or something more lore-friendly like "Order from England"
Of course, other ideas are well received.
You might want to change the icon (to be related with the new name) or inform in the store site that silver can be obtained in game.

'Order from england' could also confuse but i do agree - having the big button there saying 'buy silver' is a sure fire way to make people think its the only way to get it. Plus its not just silver you can get there. Simply 'Salem store' would work.
Do not argue with idiots, for they will pull you down to their level, then beat you with experience.

it should be moved....
that damn thing is too big and in the way....

I prefer "Access Cash Shop"

My question is... who the heck actually buys "silver" I mean, that has to be the worst way to spend money. Buying just about anything else and selling it will get you a lot more silver. So it's funny that it's listed as the silver store, when I don't think anyone really buys silver.

Haven't been contacted by person, all people apparently can is cry about things. When they get a solution offered they aren't willing to do ****.

Salem and their idiotic people.
