gavers -> Dubious choice of wording (3/27/2021 3:49:44)

In the new package Hollow proclaims (emphasis mine):
quote:

200k Z-Token Package:
Need to stock up on Z-Tokens quickly? The new 200K Z-Token Package tier gives the most Z-Tokens for your money - an insane 250% more bonus z-tokens!

I would choose to assume the staff were aware of how insanely ambiguous and misleading the wording here is, as there's not even an attempt to give any relative figure to that 250% number, as assuming anything else would be assuming incompetency.
After requesting clarification over Discord we were told it was relative to 6k Tokens package.
However, the unofficial Discord server (and even the official one) are not the main communication channel of AQ, rather Email, the website, Twitter and these very forums, and none of these were updated to reflect that clarification.
Normally I would give it a couple of days until such a clarification is made, but considering real money is involved I can't help but question the motives behind not updating it (in case of twitter / email: a follow up) as soon as possible with a clarification.
Even if it turns out the motives are pure, call-out posts like this are important to keep the company vigilant as it's better if I end up being wrong and apologize than if no one says anything and it turns out I was right.

Edit:
I would like to reference the table on the Z-Tokens page as an instance of a table that was misleading in the past (cutoff point was unrelated to any package), and corrected by AE, which is very much to their credit.

Well gavers I always appreciate honest feedback. The 6K package is the most popular so that is why I used it as an example. Anyone can see the package comes with a lot of z-tokens, the bonus amount is actually 266% compared to the 6K package! I'll add notes about the comparison.

^Even still, I think you're underselling it, lol As it's 1,000% the best deal for Z-Tokens ever! Another good way to see it is during sales it's getting 1,000 Tokens per dollar spent with the +25% Bonus Tokens. That's an incredible deal considering the +50% Bonus Tokens may be a thing of the past. Thanks Hollow! [:D]

    @Hollow
    I appreciate the quick reply. I apologize for the aggressive tone in my first message, and I'm even more appreciative your willingness to clarify.
    Thank you.
