Maybe people should buy their own Yocash, and start supporting the game. Than they won't have to deal with high Yocash rates.


yes, people complain about the yocash rates in one breath and then call people idiots for actually spending real money on a "game" I see it all of the time. If not for all of us who do buy yocash there wouldn't be a game for anybody to play. Anybody can have anything that they want if they are willing to spend some of their real hard earned cash and work their way up.

That's how I got where i'm at. I use to buy tons of yocash. Or should I say we as in my daughter and I lol
We both spent more then i'd like to admit and then when they started re-releasing in game we stopped buying. We might of bought every once in a blue moon and that was it.

Also to add some people want to buy at a cheap rate to only turn around and sell higher for some profit....Id never sell below 30K to 1. Heck I know I can get 40K to 1 on certain items.

I also want to address those who claim that the game is unenjoyable without having these items.. because I simply do not understand them. When I started.. I remember I worked for days and days to obtain one thing.. my blonde cropped hair. It was 'all the rage' at the time and I was in love with it.. I made my happiness out of obtaining things that were difficult to find, buying some yocash when I got the money and getting something I've always dreamed of. My dream item at the time was the nature girl hat, and the romantic bows that were still in store, so I got some Yocash and purchased them myself, I felt super proud.. and then time went on, made some wonderful friends, went to auctions, bought some things for a fair price, resold them for a little higher and before I knew it I had purchased my DREAM item, my Pink Roses! I was elated, I couldn't contain my giddiness. I showed all my friends and told them how I did it, and we all went around to altons and strutted our stuff with out favorite things and we made our own happiness. Sure my dream items make me a little giddy to see.. but that's because I remember how hard I worked to get them. My true happiness comes from my friends which if they ever left.. I don't know what I'd do.. sure I could live without my pixels but I couldn't do it without them and with YoWorld stable and finally up again, I have the chance to see those people and enjoy them. I'd be a sad mess without my buddies.. so Thank you so much to BVG for making it possible for me to see them to some extent. Always remember that happiness doesn't come from the game, it comes from what you make of it.

Well it's funny how you also see people saying...we missed this theme we missed that theme and then when something like the pets are re-released into game. What do you see in events? I sell jaugar pets 1.3 mill each. I seen that just a little bit ago. So that's exactly why some want re-releases so they can profit off the items. I've seen in the past so many times people go and buy off of yocash dealers in bulk so they can turn around and resell to make profit. It's happening right now as we speak.

At this point i'm not in it for the coinage anymore, re-releasing everything would just make it easier for me to get the things I want.

Nothing irritates me more than seeing that, too.

You can have most things in game if you are willing to do this. If not, well then it will make a bit harder and sometimes you have to go without if you aren't willing to spend money. This game doesn't operate on rainbows and unicorns.The trouble is there are people who feel entitled to have everything, without making any hard choices to get them, or spend any money.

Well said polite...My first dream item was the large deco tree...I bought and sold pets to get it. And it seemed like it took me forever to get 95k which is what it cost back then haha but the thing is not only did I have fun while buying and selling I also met a lot of my friends that way :)

Omg, I remember that! I had a house full of pets and I thought I was the coolest thing ever. ;) I just want everyone to see that working for the things you get really is fun! It gets boring when you don't have things to work for.. all your friends are there like 'Hey, sell this, sell that, buy this, buy that', helping you out and you're like 'I got this, I can do it' 8-)

To me, this looks like an honest mistake when fixing something in store, and nothing deliberately done to address price jacking. It's not like they are marked as "super saturday" pets or anything.

Everyone wanted the pet store fixed... they fixed it!! I seriously doubt all the animals were marked as being "special releases" or not. Good grief you people act like the world has ended. I again say.... I bet Greg had no idea he was "re-releasing" something.

Some of you people really need to put life in perspective!

Mine was the ladybug! I started in September 09 and it took me probably almost 2 years to get her but I kept at it. She was 1.3M at the time which back then was a huge amount of coins. I was so happy and it felt good to finally obtain a long time goal. Had I been able to just go buy her at the store for 1000c it wouldn't have given me the satisfaction that I got by saving and buying/selling to get her.

Honestly... if I never hear the word "RERELEASE" again... I would be the happiest Yo EVER!!!

I have/own anything and everything I would ever want in YW. I could care less if any of it turns a profit... or what it is worth! And with auction house... and events... it is ALL available to each and every one of us!!! Save up and buy it just like we all did!

The hype over this "R" word is so overwhelming... it is sickening! The one's who started it, were the generation of folks who have no clue what it is to work for anything in this game! They wanted them because they thought they were 'rich' items! Well guess what! Once released again... they're not! Once those rereleases began... I was over it! We all worked HARD for what we have... it wasn't handed to us on a silver platter!

Release it all!
Don't!
Don't care!!!

It is time to move forward in this game! Tired of reliving the past! Ready for a new Yo! :D

I bet that felt amazing! I personally had so much fun saving for my things.. personally I believe items have deflated and inflated perfectly to go along the guidelines of Yocash rates. Everything is the same as it used to be.. just looks more spendy. If I said that right :)
