I agree that “scammy” might be a strong word, but it wouldn’t be a bad idea to have a confirmation when spending that much “real” money. Sixty LC cost $2.99 if you were to buy them outright, so 75 LC cost about $3.75 — that’s a cheap meal at McDonald’s. If I buy an app costing $3.75 from the Play Store or the iTunes App Store, there is a confirmation. Can we maybe find some middle ground and agree that perhaps for any LC expenditure over, say, 15, there should be one more confirmation?
Through the eyes of the upside/downside ratio I can’t see anyone getting overly uptight about such a policy, saying, “Dang it, I want to spend all these LC and I keep getting nagged one extra tap before I can spend them!” I can, however, imagine plenty of folks like @osagej4 saying, “Whew, thanks for saving me almost four bucks with that confirmation!”
I develop applications. Confirmation windows are standard and handy. They tend to make people on both sides of the application happy. I agree with you in saying Rovio isn’t perpetrating a scam, but I can also see the point in considering measures be taken to prevent player frustration. Because that’s a win-win. Me, if I were osagej4 I would simply exploit the Golden Pig time zone bug until I felt things were even. Would only take about a day to make 75 LC back…
Thanks,
