No, you didn't. You did for new players who are leveling their characters.
For me 200FC points do not make any difference in AoC, because item shop doesn't offer anything in that price range. So personally, I would prefer to not read anything about increasing sub value 2.5 months ago. Then getting those 200 points would be nice surprise.
But I saw what I saw. Announcement in French only didn't help, 3 months and imagination did their work.
And reality didn't match it. And I'm dissapointed enough to post it on public forum.
