Yes, exactly, particularly with increasing the drop rate of rares. I don't like RIG's, and after a stint with giving a couple of them a fair shot (opening more than a few, I mean), I refuse to spend any cash on them. Not only do I think they are a waste of time and money (and I care not for how complex they make the game involved, it's basically just being nice enough to add some lube along with the a**l rapeage), I don't agree in the slightest with how Gaia looks ethically with releasing these sorts of things.

I voted with my wallet when Prom was announced, and gleefully bought all sorts of things with my remaining $15 in GC, dammit. :/
I cannot and won't spent real money for pixels, but I understand that this cash policy helps Gaia to pay their bills and that's fine. But these RIGS, my god, they're a terrible! The random item thingy lets leave it to the good old pink and blue magical boxes which are for free. If a user spends real money, he should receive what he wants.
I have never bought a RIG fully from the Cash Shop, due to where I live, and my age.
I have, however, spent 60,000g on Famestars. And that is where I went very, very wrong. I lost all my gold.
Answering petitions in a RIG? That's a definite no-no.
"OHEY. WE HAS ITEMS YOU WANT. BUUUUUUUUUUUUUUY THIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIS FOR THEM!!!!1!1111!!!!"
"lolwut? I have to buy them? With MY money?"

I wasn't happy when they first really appeared. I'd prefer to actually know what I'm getting than hoping I'd have a snowball's chance in Hell for the rare item.

Feel free to quote any of this, if you should so choose. I don't mind.

LOL @ your sig.

On topic, the old ones were kind of fun because they had better odds and less items. Gaia seems to think moar items and less odds make a better RIG.

They don't.

"I bought a few rigs myself. I didn't particularly like what I got... What am I supposed to do with a dress?! I mean come on, I paid 35,000 gold for a lousy 5,000 or so sell back dress?! I vote no. I will no longer be a part of this little game."
I think Gaia has gone too far with this idea!

A lot of people think so.

Funny that I was saying the same exact points as you, OP, to my husband early this morning.

Isn't Pirula's statement a little hypocritical? She wants to get items common with most users, yet release super rare items? How is getting that super rare item... Enjoyable? It's not.

We have MCs already to make "Rare Items"; we don't need the latest items to be rare. It's hurting the users a lot. EVEN when it's items from Petitions.

I mean, the items are gorgeous! But whoever is in charge with these damn things deserves punishment.

And who really cares if the rare items from the RIGs aren't valuable? We have MCs for that reason too.
Ah, the hardships and struggles of the common people... how I wish I could relate. cheese_whine

Joking aside, I love the RIGS and have made millions off of them. The more the better!
The ploy to try to get me to spend 10$ only to find I get an item that's worth 5K sell back to a store and not an exclusive item is a croc of s**t! I will NEVER buy them!
RIGS are rigged.

lol I will reserve my comments on said dev as they are less than nice and will surly end with me being banned. xD

They could do them like M/C's and preserve how rare they are but Gaia doesn't see this.

Ninja: Common people?? LMAO. Elite pigs have no place in my thread. Good bye.

Eh, I said a bit. I may be wrong.

I think he was joking... but I see he's pro-RIG due to he makes profit off of it.
