I spend money on this game. I'm by no means a whale, but I spend. What these refine and rune increases do is basically make me want to stop spending - because it makes "catching up" even more of a pipe dream. The top three accounts on my server is one *big* whale spender. That top player is over 500k, the highest ranked player not played by this one person is 390k. They've got double my power and I'm ranked in the mid-20s on the server - that means there's a lot of people ranked lower than me. The top player has Level 13 Runes - no one else on the server has one. The other "whales" are running a few Level 12s. The vast majority of the player base is still trying for a few 10s at most

Refines are going to be the same way. That top player will have Level 13s, they'll be more untouchable, and the whole rest of the server will straggle along. I'll be better than the FTP, not as good as the whales, and it won't have anything to do with skill or effort, they'll just buy their way to the top.

The whole point of Naruto is the underdog working hard to get to the top. I log in and spend thinking; hey, someday I could catch up with the top person in the server. What this does is make even that unrealistic goal less of a possibility. It's depressing.

I have to admit that it's really difficult for me to *not* recharge. It's just something that I do - every other week for about two years now. I'm not going to recharge this month, just because I'm hoping that might be more noticeable than forum posts. Epic refines should not have been rolled out yet. Now they are - and I'm sure they're not going away. Advanced runes need to be easier to get. The #1 whale on our server only has level 10 refinement on one position - guess which.


Please raise the daily limit of advanced runes on the space time shop and put advanced runes back in the group shop.


It's taking a conscious effort on my part to not give you my money. I want to give you my money. Please listen to the community.
