summarize it for me

Kinda shocked at the whole prem silk is able to be gifted...

tl;dr

Summarize it.

The few most important things I got from this Notice (in my opinion):

1. Silk is divided into Regular Silk and Premium Silk.
2. Items purchased through the Item Mall are divided into Silk Items and Premium Silk Items.
3. Silk Items can be purchased with Regular Silk or Premium Silk. Premium Silk Items can be purchased with Premium Silk only.
4. Items purchased with Regular Silk cannot be traded with other members. Items purchased with Premium Silk can be traded with other members. However, some items cannot be traded even though they were purchased with Premium Silk.
5. Premium Silk Gift - the ability to give Premium Silk to another user.

YOU DESERVE this cookie

So they are gonna split up silk, account-bound silk, and give away silk.

premium silk can be gifted yes.

bro 10 silk plz

hehe

Poor silk buyer // rich silk buyer ^^

1. logic

damn, game's gonna get even more unbalanced now, but oh well, it's better this way, bb gold companies.

i was already wondering why the silkgift button didn't work

Yeah, lol. It has been there for... well... as long as I can remember and it never worked, lol

You were able to sell all mall items at the beginning, in stalls. They stoped it due to CCF. Dunno if the gift button ever worked tho.

i had a char with like 10 costume and dont even use it.. i hope they allow me to trade it to my other char and use my angel and devil wings <3

I bought 3 pieces of 4-week gold tickets by misstake.. Was gonna buy POP cards.. Something went wrong lol.
I hope I can stall them.

if i know jm, they will let send just silk, not silk items, cuz more mistakes - more money.

However, if the User does not submit the “I do not agree” declaration of intent within 7 days of the effective start of the revised User Agreement, the User shall be deemed to have agreed to the revised User Agreement.

If you don't agree to the new rules then you can get banned, if you ignore this for a week you automatically agree to this. xD


3. Charged Silk or Premium Silk shall have an effective period of one (1) year and, in the event that there is no Silk or Premium Silk has been added or used within one (1) year, the remaining Silk and Premium Silk shall expire.

Silk will expire in 1 year if you don't buy more silk.

5. Items purchased with Premium Silk can be traded with other members. However, some items cannot be traded even though they were purchased with Premium Silk. In the event that the member does not carefully read the item description and purchases an item in error, the Company shall not be held responsible.

7. The Company shall not be responsible for any situation which arises from inaccurate execution of gifting Premium Silk. (That is, situations which occur due to the member's error such as erroneously entering the name of the recipient character.)

If you f*ck up, Joymax is not responsible for it and you won't be refunded for anything. But everyone knew that already.

This agreement is going to be effective from 11/09, so right after next weekly inspection.

YAY, now I really might return
