USD question/suggestion

Post by Galeena »

As I read that I could donate 100 Euro to get 1325 ED yesterday, I giggled with glee and started planning not only my fat ED loots, but also everyone's impending demise...Then I realized that I would have to donate 134.10 to get 100 Euro. So the 100 USD I had saved up just wasn't going to cut it. It seems that our players are spread out all over the world, and a fair amount of us are in the US. Would it be possible to let us donate in USD for the same amount of ED? I'm one of those penny pincher people, and I waited patiently for a bonus ED time, since we are on a budget around here, and I saved diligently, denying my self all but the most awesome of earrings (check my facebook). If it couldn't be a permanent thing, could it be a just over the Christmas holidays thing that USD are accepted in the same amount as Euro? I know I for one, and a few other players, would be very grateful.

Exchange EUR to USD and pay aways =]

Bottom line is you get 25% more EDs but you also want to pay ¬25% less money :twisted:

I wasn't saying I was unhappy in any way, I was just asking. I also wasn't asking for a discount or anything like that, I was simply asking about leveling the currency exchange playing field, so to speak.

We have a solid amount of Russians here too, lets level the playground for them too ... 100 rubles for 1300 ED :mrgreen:

Everything is balanced by the financial markets dear, and you put as much value in 135$ as we put in 100eur

In March of this year, the switch was made to donating in Euro instead of USD. I believe this was because of some issues with the bank that is used to process the donations. As far as I am aware this will be a permanent change and everyone should plan their donations accordingly.

If there is any further confusion or questions you need answered regarding donating, please send a page using the help menu in-game and one of us will be happy to assist you. :)

That is a pretty boss graph, Dev. Any one care to take a stab at how many EURO is need to donate to get an Ultimate Spell book and a relayer deed, factoring in the bonuses going on? My maths are bad....
