The second two I can understand doing. You have to understand though, the first one..some people are underweight so they can't donate.

If it has been done before, it certainly can be done again and again for that matter. Arent those numerous gem named garments from various csc sales? and all of them were this year.

Oh, we want more free stuff?

I'm not surprised.

If you don't have ten bucks left over to buy CSC with USD, then a sale won't help you anyway as you'd likely need it for bills or food. We all have to prioritize with our money. I can't buy a new car every month, even if that would have been cool.

As for the sP price of CSC, it's been raising steadily since I joined and it always goes up right before Black Friday and starts going down sometime in January, when the holidays are over. I could spend a hundred dollars in CSC and sell it all in less than 12h despite the prices being high because people have that kind of sP to spend and they are willing to spend it.

If anything we need to fix inflation so that people get more bang for their sP. The dollar to CSC rate is really quite generous with the bonus CSC we get these days.

Yeah I know not everyone can donate plasma/blood. Not everyone can physically hold a job. Not everyone has the extra time needed to do something on the side. Not everyone has the items needed to sell to make some cash. Doesn't mean it's not a viable option for those who can though. And I know the plasma place here takes almost everyone as long as you weigh enough (130lbs? I don't remember) so it is still probably the "easiest" option.

I was just trying to show people that there are numerous options that earn a small amount of extra money that they could dedicate to buying CSC with. CSC is the same price it has always been (actually cheaper since we get an additional percent tacked on to every purchase). Like said above, if someone can't spend $10 to buy some credits, having a sale isn't going to help that situation any.

I never buy CSC with money. There are no way in hell for me to pay real cash for virtual stuff that doesn't really belong to me. Call me a materialist, I don't care.

The real issue is the CSC/sP ratio that went up during the sale, not the CSC itself. Have you ever seen discount on money? Like getting 25% off 25$ for nothing? No, it has to be a purchase. The CSC itself is useless unless used on something (cs, cw). The CW sale could've been handled better, honestly. But anyway. You cannot expect Subeta to cut their money income, you cannot expect to pay 3$ for a 5$ purchase of CSC. Peharps a bonus? But not a discount on the money itself.

As far as I can remember, it's pretty much 1$=100 csc which isn't bad either. Unless your country currency isn't USD.

You want a sale...on money? I understand wanting a bonus for more csc in circulation (like those paypal bonusses we have ever now and then). But a discount on money? Nope
