User blog comment:Bibimbap0920/Raise in price for Jewels and Nubee's implication behind it/@comment-9505008-20150221153152

I think everyone is focusing a little too much on the "price increase" part, but that was merely an example of this post. What I wanted to bring to everyone's attention is the fact that Nubee implemented a major change to the game (arguably the most important factor) without giving notification to the playerbase. I am aware that price has not changed for everyone but that can change as soon as right this minute. I don't care whether the issue is due to VAT increases and whatnot; it's speculation (arguably, a good one) at best, and may not necessarily be THE reason for this change (along with that reasoning, if VAT decreases, does that mean Nubee will DECREASE the price of jewels? I really don't think so). What we need is official announcement from Nubee explaining their stance regarding this issue and it needs to make sense and be acceptable to the playerbase.

If Nubee is allowed to change game mechanics as they please without notifying the players, and if players allows Nubee to do this, this will have huge consequences in the future. The fact that only some part of the world is affected does not indicate that the rest will be spared in the future.
