Well it's morning, and I'm not really any less disappointed by all of this. Everyone who says "LOL IT'S JUST A FEW XP POTS" is totally missing the point, and anyone who denies that the direct connection between paying RMT for ANYTHING and ANY kind of reward ingame because of that is "like RMT or pay-too-win" is blind.
I can understand people wanting to support something they have interest in, and yeah this is their server so they can do whatever the hell they want with it. But that doesn't mean that I, and it looks like a lot of other players, can't be just plain disappointed by the way this was handled.
I mean, we've been hyping Velious for YEARS around here. Even the staff have gotten into it recently, with Verious the Bear and Winter is Coming emotes and stuff. And you know what? Velious beta was announced as a sidenote in a stream focused on a RMT-ish fundraiser for a game that is years away. There are threads all over the forums about special forum names, xp potions, and "lol rmt" ... but there isn't an official announcement of Velious from the staff? The only discussion of Velious is people trolling about how they are gonna pay money so they can get in Velious early and WTS velious loot in NRO /auc as the rest of us wait for the raft?
How can you NOT be a bit baffled by all of this?

i don't play this game because i understand the devs. i play it because its fun.
it does seem a bit inconsistent that they go through great efforts to recreate classic eq and then do exp pots. its their play pen though...and i am having fun playing (for free).
so what do i really care?
