RE-Ratings (and yes again)

In regards to my previous post /139/c0/105575/1.html
the question about the fact we have spent thousands and thousands of L$ on rating people over the years was not asnwered. Ill rephrase then, If I was to spend say L$2,500 on an item and you wiped it from my inventory as it was stale would you expect me to be ok with that? If I was to pay you for an item and never recieved it would you think it was fine because times move on we will forget about it? I dont see the justice in us paying alot of money for something to just be wiped? Am I the only person feeling that we dont have a say in "our" supposed world where the residents create the world? I may be blowing things out of proportion here but if you have the right to make something completely redundant that we have spent alot of money on making it a waste of our time what do we get in return and an extended text box isnt a good reply the scroll arrow is not exactly hard to work out.

Ah, Orochimaru--no, it's not that. Quite the contrary, actually.

This was actually answered over a year ago:

Will we be refunded?

And far from the only time it was asked, hence why I encouraged you earlier to discover past knowledge with the forum search. Reward yourself!

I do wish the ratings had been blanked earlier... this hangs like an awkward icicle in the air.
