Hello @cranium, sorry if I did not see your comment right away.
Billthecipher (formerly the person who had been banned from our discord under another nick after trolling there) also was the person who previously, on another post, spread news about my personal life in the comments.
I had to answer there, but I don't plan to look at all the places where he copies/pastes his elements. I have to speak on the third person here, which is extremely impolite and I would rather not, but I lost hope for now on this one.
As you can see here, he multi-replied to all the comments in here, spending some energy.
So, about the answer now.
As mentioned in multiple posts previously, including a comment reply to Jacob Peacock above: (made 2 days ago and before these questions)
All our artists are paid, and we paid for these arts.
As mentioned in some places, Luca Oleastri is a very productive stock artist and his works have been found very fitting for the EXODE universe.
I have been featuring Luca's arts even when EXODE was first imagined some years ago, and since then he has been making more interesting arts, and again I find them fitting for our theme.
Luca is an amazing sci-fi artist. Not only that, but I also believe EXODE is a great place to give story, meaning and purpose to his art.
We are in 2020 and stock artists have been going on for some 15+ years, it's time they are paid some respect. They learnt to work with no client, and have their art able to be featured in multiple projects instead of committing them to one (which might be unreleased etc). I appreciate that angle and what they help studios with.
And it's obviously time people understand that when you find an art on internet, it does not mean we stole it, it possibly meant we paid for it. I have a publisher past and have editorial values, I don't steal stuff.
Insulting artists who allow projects to work on budget; or insulting projects who fulfill their vision while still being on their budget, is wrong. And very gratuitous.
Thanks for the comment. I had no doubt. This comment is more needed for new users.
so you got no questions about why those packs are so high and how come you need to spend at least 80 bucks to get some superior card instead of like 5-10 bucks? it is money grabbing scheme. But who needs to ask questions when you are a snowflake
The other day I sold a splinterlands card for $ 310.
My record sale was 1 card for $ 900.
For me, $ 80 for a card that will generate assets is a normal price.
I don’t understand one thing, why are you imposing your opinions on everyone and entering into a discussion with everyone?
i dont u know, it is just a scam. and by the way in splinterlands cards were belonging to you and here, well they not. the card you will be getting for those 80 bucks wont be sellable as the elidnos said by himself.
Anyone can sell it. Here are offers from the market where people sell it.
so basicly what you are saying is that you dont give a single thing about this but cash and i dont condemnt it. But why all this circous saying how great it is when i think you know it is not. Thing is, you mey get cash back and earn but most wont as the rule says 20% makes 80% cash while 80% looses to those 20%.
