Extortion: 'the practice of obtaining something, especially money, through FORCE or threats.'
Now I'm not directly saying ZEN is actively doing this, but if it looks like a duck and quacks like one..well. They know the price jump was going to turn off a lot of the playerbase from buying it, so they put PRESSURE on the weakminded players by setting a short purchase window in which to buy it. Unfortunately, this will not turn out well for ZEN as community trust as been compromised. It's going to take a lot to fix it. If they are doing this for the stupid deer mount, image how much houses will cost...ten of thousands of crown coins.
