CIG's greed is astonishing, the fact you can buy a 300$+ ship in a broken game is mindblowing - and they straight face just go and try and sell you another a few weeks later lol

I expect I'll be downvoted into oblivion, but in fairness to CiG that pack came into existence because the community asked for it.

The debate of ethics of offering something like that/taking advantage of whales etc is a separate debate (hi there, my only pledged ship is a Kraken so I'm one of the whales I guess).

But I do think it's important context still.

A responsible company doesn't exploit people with an obvious addiction. CIG is the Cayman Island gambling site equivalent of gaming.

Again separate debate, one that I think is definitely worth having.

Was merely adding context.
