Okay.... This time I'm going to /try/ to be civil with you... What you're doing here is trying to mitigate your losses, and give the appearance of a response or "compromise", while maintaining a facade that you were not in fact just "caving" to "overwhelming pressure" to remove cores from infusion. Because that will not only involve admitting you were wrong in the first place... It will mean that your company was forced to bend. Nobody likes being the one who's forced to eat it in a customer satisfaction capacity. I know it's extraordinarily tempting to just scream "if you don't like how we do business just stop doing business with us because we're not changing our position!".... But that doesn't make it the correct response.... I know it's going to be a blow to your egos. But you have reached a point where you are actually taking away people's access to things they worked for just to artificially prop up an economy nobody wants anymore. It's time to just say "fine, the customer is always right apparently so just -blam!-ing take what you wanted and go away". Sometimes you just have to give the complaining customer what they want because failing to do so is ultimately more damaging. As I said before. My council is that you not address the "exploit" to pinnacle weapon core harvesting, allow people to use it all they want until you come up with a patch to remove cores from infusion costs, and then when you put through the patch to remove cores from infusion costs in a few months, just delete all cores from people's inventories and make them all start from ground zero on their cores for master-working new equipment. It has become the best possible solution to a problem that has become far too great of a distraction. It's time to let go of your egos. This is a battle you have lost. Period.
