The guys on Ran spent huge amounts of moe4ny on their epics ahd upgrade 1.0s - don't think they didn't. I sold a 4-aprt zhen early on for 120k RPs - that is equivalent to $1,200 USD. That means somebody spent $1,200 in RPs to buy that 4-part upgrade zhen from me.
Now that the new Upgrades came out, how much do you think THAT ZHEN is worth today? (hint: NOT 120k RPs)
When the new upgrades were offered - they were offered to people on both servers.
And please spare us the whole "BooHoo! YNK said there would be no upgrades on Jin! GMs LIE US!" argument. The people who went to divinity went there either because they could not get an upgrade or epic or they were chased off ran because of a KOS. The fact that they came back here when the upgrade 2.0s were sold tells us all that they are there only because they could nto get upgrades in the first place.
No, JIN should never have been offered compensation at all. They only got it because they whined and wanted free stuff.
Congratulations - you got it.
