"There are plenty of other posts here that you can go read if you don't like this one, let alone other forums and sites!"

but i choose to comment on this one, because'' i don't like it. ''

"Mobage thrives on paying and playing sheep like you that will accept whatever treatment they give you as you continue the motions, especially the part where you use a credit card."

''Right, and i can also choose not to use my credit card going forward. there is a difference between 'accepting whatever treatment they give' and complaining when they offer an apology and a token gift (however small) as a way of saying sorry. Just because it dodn't live up to your lofty standards doesn't mean that everyone holds them to the same standard. Their gift was more than what i lost for those several hours, and i have been in the 200-300 range the entire event. ''

"But then again, I am sure it is mommy's card"

''nope - i am a grown adult in my late 30s fully capable of using my own credit cards, and also equally capable of paying the bills when i receive them. ''

"so you disrespectfully don't care at all.  It has shown with your "courageous" attempt at showing ignorance and disrespect in here."

''once again, nope. I do care, but at the same time, i know that we all are spending money and only getting enjoyment in return. there is no physical product we receive, except for the statement from Visa or Mastercard. that being said, there is an overwhelming sentiment on this site about this game - it's pay to play, you get screwed on the space bridge, they just suck us dry, the customer service sucks, the events suck, the rewards suck, etc. Mobage finally realizes they are providing an inferior product and give a pittance of a reward, but that is met with more disdain - it's not enough, it's an insult, i'm too good to accept it, etc. I make that point in my earliest post - if you don't like the game (and that includes ALL of these elements that go with it), then stop playing. ''

Moving on, time for work. You should try it! Makes you appreciate your money when you earn it yourself.

''man you're a fiesty one. i do have a job - a very good one that pays very well. This job also provides me several breaks during the day where i can play this silly game. I also have a second work-from-home job (for the tax breaks) where i sit in front of a computer as i work - another excellent opportunity to leave this game open and play as i work. That being said, i do appreciate the money i earn, and it allows me to play a silly phone-based game and spend money on it if i so wish, which i have. ''

And since i appreciate, and respect, money in general, it annoys me when people bitch about spending money on something that is far from a necessity in life, ''then continue to spend more money on that same object. There is not a better example of caveat emptor that i could imagine.''
