Why won't team lava fix the doubled prices

[lotusthreads]

My prices for the food, decor and expansions are doubled compared to everyone else's. I can't progress very fast, I can't decorate and I can't expand because to prices are double :mad:

I also can't do the Olympic goals because the prices are too high.

This is ruining my enjoyment of the game. When will this be fixed ?

I play on an ipad2

They won't fix it. You can probably make a deal with them though. Buy some gems in returned for lowered prices. Ahh? Ahhh?!! ;)

But if someone is on the same level as me in a particular game and I'm seeing higher prices, how does that even work?!

Because not every player will see the same prices in the game. So he said on another thread.

The real question you should ask is, "Why?"
Why would TL want to have different players having different prices for the same things?

That question, i suppose, will never be answered.
Saying they are trying to ensure the prolonged quality of the game really just tells me that there is no way they could be playing their own games. There is no way a player who is just starting out will be able to prolong their play when they are broke, cannot afford to buy even the cheapest of recipes or decor and have no other way to earn enough coins or xp to move forward in the game.

...that is...unless they buy gems.

Which, perhaps, is what they might consider to be good for the economy and balance of the games....

Did that make sense to you? Because it didn't to me. But whatever. At the end of the day this is just some app game and I'm baking virtual pastries. I wanted to be invested in it but sadly you guys aren't invested in me.

This doesn't make sense to me either. If they are going to make changes to the game, then why doesn't it apply to all players, not just the unlucky few?

I can see how this would be an enjoyable game for those people who are not paying double for everything, but unfortunately I am reaching the point where it is just a source of frustration, as some of the enjoyable aspects of the game, such as decoration, and trying for the goals are completely out of my reach. :(

That's what I'm saying. I'm trying to make them understand that what they're saying makes no sense. It's like saying the sky is green when it's obviously blue. It makes no sense. As a person who likes fairness and equality, I would say straight to your face: "Does what you're saying even sound RIGHT to you?"

You see they haven't responded again.. RIP OFF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Can you please explain why you fixed the doubled prices as a 'bug' for the majority of people, but are refusing to fix it for the unlucky few that still have the doubled prices.

The game is radipdly becoming unplayable at a relatively low level because of the doubled prices and I really want to understand how you think discriminating against some people gives 'prolonged Quality' to the game. I can tell you as a player that has been vastly handicapped by the doubled prices, all it gives me is a feeling of anger, upset and feeling ripped off.....

I feel the same way. I've been a customer since 2010, and they must've done something right to keep me a customer for this long. But, everything TL has done in 2012 has upset me in some way. I really don't want to quit TL games or leave the forum, but I'm getting really upset. And TL should really and I mean really consider making players' suggestions and feedback happen as fast as they can. I really don't want to have to leave... and I don't want to be discriminated upon because of my prices.

Hello, is anyone from teamlava here? We would like an answer on why you are discriminating against some players.

Oh wait, you want us to buy gems. It is not a coincidence that within minutes of complaining to teamlava about the doubled prices, I got my first gem sale, and have had a gem sale constantly since then. Get it through your head teamlava, I will not pay a cent for gems until I am treated fairly :(

[Stueeeee]

I'd like to know why the price of a new appliance has suddenly jumped! No more for me...

[Blankiey]

Just be happy you get the goals unlike Andriod users.
