As far as I understood, all the players who donated before 16(?) december are going to have their coins (= currency purchased with real money i believe) refunded.
Yes, its quite funny and explain why i will never pay for or use p2w games. You actually spend your money for things that you think are buying, but that you are receiving on rent only.
That could be expanded to every MMO games, even retail WoW itself, because when blizzard will decide to close their realms in a future, people will realise that all the money spent for years of subscription, were money spent for something they never fully had.
But well its a relavistic thing and it's different from buying items to win anyway.
Feel sorry for those who raised characters using their hands only
