In the end, we paid for a service. We got served, but we didn't like it. But a service was still performed; work was still done.

A semi-facetious example but I hope you'll understand what I'm getting at... When I was dorming at college one state away, I went to McDonalds and ordered some cheeseburgers. I was horrified to discover they put MUSTARD on my cheeseburger. When I complained and asked for money back/replacement burgers, I was told that that's how they do business there, and it was my fault for not requesting no mustard - which I didn't know to do because no place where I live puts mustard on any hamburger. There, I didn't know what I was getting into at all, and I was brushed aside. Here, we know what we are getting into (especially after doing it multiple times).

Mobage does crap business; we know this. There is something besides stupidity or whatever that keeps us playing this game, and that factor is our competitiveness. There are a lot of games you can play for free or minimal cost, but you will either not be competitive or there is no real competition (except, perhaps, against yourself).

Mobage is selling us the chance to compete at a higher level against others. Asking for our money back (especially after winning) because we didn't like what it turned out to be... It doesn't sit well with me.

I pay to have a shot at winning the big prizes - no risk, no reward. I have my issues with Mobage, but this isn't one of them. I can't win and then take my money back also without just cause (see SSG's missing weapons issue). We knew about that weeks ago yet people still shelled out massive bucks on a chance to be a big winner in multiple events since.

Ignorance of law does not nullify law. Unwillingness to accept what is true and right doesn't make those things wrong.

If I'm following correctly, if people know of SSG's missing weapons you believe they should accept that their own cards can go missing in the future without any means of recourse?
