Did they just take away a feature and call it VIP?

Not sure if you all have noticed but Belvast shops now REQUIRE VIP sub in order to get personal shop licenses that hold 20m...
Now, the rest of the player base without VIP is limited to 10m in a shop.

Did they honestly decide to gimp Belvast shops like that? We always had the ability to hold 20m and now its cut in half. With inflation and just the general price of items, 10m in a shop is literally nothing.

I know that ever since they have introduced AH, Belvast shops have declined and is less relevant but I still enjoy physically going to shops or setting up stuff at Belvast.

smh belv will be a ghost town now. what do you guys think?

    Honestly, I really like the whole 10m upgrade. It helps when we have only 12 default slots for the AH.
    EDIT: I can't freaking read anymore apparently.. X_X

    its not really an upgrade if it was always 20m from the beginning of time and then got taken away to be a "vip feature only" :[

    OHHH ok I just re-read it, mb, I'm not fully awake
    dont ask how i missed all that important stuff, i'm clueless too..

    And if they really did that then that.. is terrible.
    I thought they were going to make it so shops all over could be 20m for VIP/Premium and 10m for F2P players, BESIDES Belvast which would remain 20m for all.
    'Just use AH' isn't gonna cut it either with that stupid 12 slot limit.. which YET AGAIN gives more to VIP.

    I'm going to be extremely sad if this is the case because I really liked to go there and window shop too (and rarely I'd actually end up buying something cool!)
    Again, I apologise for my dumbness earlier, but now I understand and I wholeheartedly agree with you.

    not really... a lot of the expensive(overpriced.) stuff is normally in the AH now. So this i don't see really is an issue. if anything is just making it limited to how much you can sell per thingy, which isn't really an issue... Then again if you don't charge a lot on the item then you are safe.

    Bethesda, the biggest screw up being Fallout 76.

    If you had watched "The fall of fallout 76" Its pretty darn amazing to watch and make you wonder how the company had not lost ALL the fans yet.

    Fallout 76 was a mistake since it's release. I was amazed how my husband managed to ignore it's huge flaws and even enjoyed it. Thankfully he stopped playing it several months ago after the ban for "having too many items" even though it was their fault from the start that they didn't manage to fix all the glitches and bugs within time so some people abused them as hell to dupe items, so they banned him "temporarily" and he had to wait for 4 MONTHS to get unbanned and they even dared to wipe all his characters away and was left with NOTHING. Bethesda's incompetence is even worse than Nexon's...

    Like dude.... There was cases where some players were playing A LOT of this game so they had many items collected and hoarded in their inventories and Bethesda just assumed right away that they duped them and banned some innocents... Imagine if Nexon did that LOL. Half of veteran playerbase get banned! xD

    and would be enough for me to call it quits while I am banned for something I had not done.

    Well i really don't see Auction House good for selling small items that do not stack and take too much space, like Diamonds. It's inefficient to sell 12 Diamonds in Action House for 100k each when i can sell like 50+ in Personal Shop at once. There are also some items who can't be sold in Auction House, but can be sold in Personal Shops. *looks at Gamyu Robe and Likeability Potions*

    There are some versions of Expiration enchant potions not being able to be set on the AH and had to be sold in personal shops.

    Oh and plenty of other outfits too.

    It used to happen. What they used to do was ban you and then paste the same response over and over with appeals. Eventually after several tickets they would threaten to lock you out of the system entirely. I know a certain GM there who is quite indiscriminate in situations like this that STILL works there. They used to be hot. Although I will say they have probably been retrained under their newer policies which encourages retention regardless of what rules you broke. >:]

    (Please take note I have not mentioned who they are or even their gender. Assume a gender you assume my preferences. I know how California works. Thanks).

    If you think the VIP update being postponed for issues is bad, Bethesda's newest "Fallout 1st" membership is way worse, and I'm pretty glad Nexon hasn't reached that level yet.
