See that? That's Social Point and one of its users. (By the way, "Social Point" is the company that runs Dragon City and Monster Legends among other things.) Well, here I am again with another gripe about these assholes.
The first thing you should know, if you're a new player to either Dragon City or Monster Legends, is that the people at Social Point are unscrupulous bastards who spend most of their time trying to think of ways to trick their players out of money and/or the (gems/game currency) they've acquired by playing. Did this happen to you? Did you accidentally spend gems you hadn't meant to? Then you fell right into their trap. It just happened to me for the second time while I was crafting special gems in the "ancient world." The first time I lost over a hundred currency gems I didn't know how, but I knew it was while I was playing the "ancient world" section. After that, I stopped playing that part of the game for almost a year. I just went back yesterday, started breeding, summoning and crafting again. As I was crafting the special gems used to summon new dragons, I accidentally spent about 145 currency gems and it was because of the way these shitheads have set the button. They know exactly what they're doing, people have complained about it, it's all over the forum, and they haven't changed anything. It's pure greed, and that's what seems to drive these assholes.
So, without going on and on about changes, just know that if this happened to you, A) you're not alone, it's happening to a LOT of people and B) there IS something you can do about it. First, write to them and tell them that you will NEVER spend one cent ever again on their game, tell them why, but don't expect any response or any changes to be made. Here's their help page http://support.socialpoint.es/games/dragon-city/ Also tell them that you'll tell every one of your friends what happened and that they also should think twice before giving these greedheads any money at all. Post it on your Facebook page. They seem to thrive on all the attention they can get by bothering their players there, they might as well reap the fruits of their greed there as well. Tell as many people as you can that these games are set up to trick you into spending game currency. I'm slightly comforted by knowing that I gave them under 20 bucks about two years ago, but once I saw the greed and trickery I said "Hell no, no more." The 145 gems I just lost though, that takes a LONG time to save up. It's safe to say I'm pretty goddamn pissed off right now.
Well, that's it for me and the "ancient world." It's really sad and pathetic that they feel the need to abuse their players in this way, but that's corporate greed for you. The only way to have any effect is to hit them in the bank account. If enough people get angry over this, then maybe they'll listen. I doubt it, though. So, until the next thing these morons do to piss me off comes along, I'm out for now. I hope the 145 currency gems they tricked me out of was worth a blog post like this being prominent on the web. I hope it's helped anyone else out there who feels ripped off by scumbags. Hey, want to voice your problems? Start one of these blogs. Look near the top of the page. I joined the Social Point forum before so I could post, but I couldn't find where to post a new message. Admittedly I'm still seeing red and not thinking clearly so I just came here to post yet another complaint about their greed. Thanks for reading and good luck with your gem use in the future.
