Am I saying it is certainly intentional? No. Is it reasonable to assume, given past behavior? Absolutely. I guess we will just have to agree to disagree then.

I fully admit they are trying to milk money out of the game with fancy things. But they have in the past reworded the SB to avoid confusion, which they could have left as is if they were really into trickery. They could have also removed the confirmations from all the SBs if that were the case. The other manipulations are different, such as making it a pay to win game, totally different than trying to cash grab from people that mis click buttons. Not the same at all. Kind of like selling you a lemon car vs stealing your money outright... I don't think they would stoop that low. IMO, there should be a confirmation in place anytime you are about to use a resource that that can be purchased. There is a confirmation in place for spending cubes, energon recharges which are both purchasable resources. There is also a confirmation in place for things like spending medals, Mobage points, cards when upgrading or transcanning.

All of these confirmations are in place for a good reason as it can help lower the frustration that players can encounter when they use a resource by accident.

They reworded the SB verbage not because they were nice but because it was misleading and players were complaining and looking for refunds. Them removing the confirmations would be too blatant so that is a no go. With Chains, it was never implemented from the start which I truly believe they purposely left out.

Not here to change your opinion but rather state my opinion. I guess we will also have to agree to disagree.
