    This is what 1,000,000 Crowns ($8000USD) will get you:

    @ZOS_GinaBruno @ZOS_JessicaFolsom @ZOS_RobGarrett This is just one example for how unfair and unbalanced crown store items for gold trade is.
    Please restrict or disallow it, it doesn't look good for you ZOS, it isn't decent for a gaming company such as you to allow gold buying.
    A simple step to restrict it will go a long way:
    The number of gifts an account can deliver, for example:
    1 gift of 1-500 crowns per week.
    1 gift of 501-1,000 crowns per month.
    1 gift of 1,001-1,500 crowns per 2 months.
    1 gift of 1,501-3,000 crowns per 3 months.
    1 gift of 3,001-5,000+ crowns per 6 months.

    That gold is coming from within the system. So equilibrium is still there.

    It doesn't matter.
    Players shouldn't get rich because they used their real money.
    It's gold buying, almost same like gold buying from bots, just in this case ZOS makes the profit.
    So basically ZOS is selling the gold while the players exchange the in-game virtual items and currency.

    Correct, which is supporting the game you love.

    The game is becoming more and more P2W.
    Hopefully, ZOS will understand they need to stop this practice before it's too late.

    There is 0 PTW in ESO, are you trolling?

    Players buy gold while they made no in-game effort to obtain.
    They didn't use the legit in-game methods for obtaining gold, such as: farming raw mats and selling the refined mats and tempers through guild traders etc.

    They quite literally:
    1) They Used their credit card to buy crown packs.
    2) They bought the crown store items.
    3) They exchanged the crown store items for in-game gold.

    There is no doubt it is P2W.

    You dont understand P2W.

    I understand what is P2W.
    If a player can buy with real money the way to victory in-game it is P2W.
    Being able to buy gold with real money is one example for P2W.
    The gold currency is extremely valuable in-game and the players who buy the gold through crown store items for gold practice are winning.
    This is a solid case of P2W.
    The only thing I buy with gold is Motifs...and in the grand scheme of things...what exactly are they winning?

    If you want to see P2W...real P2W... go play Neverwinter...its free to play...

    This is P2W and I have already gave a few examples as to why it is P2W in previous posts.
    The crown store items for gold practice should be restricted or disallowed as soon as possible.
    I won't reply to anymore troll posts.
    If you fail to see how it is P2W, this is on you.

    Zos said crowns are considered an in-game item, just like gold, thus the exchange is allowed. Any item you can buy with gold in the game means anyone with gold has access to that item. And crown convenience items are not superior to crafted items available in game. This is not and logically cannot be pay to win. The ease one has access to gold does not dictate if it is pay to win. Your logic falls flat here.

    Actually if you fail to see how its NOT P2W its on you...also still haven't answered the question of what exactly are we winning?

    LOL...this is coming from a person who trolls every thread with an inane interpretation of what P2W is...LOL...no... LUL...
