Old Mount Speed Refunds!!!!

Am I not the only person who sees the flaws in Blizzard's logic? Let's punish the players who have remained dedicated to our game since the beginning and lets reward newer players that may or may not even continue playing by giving them cheaper and faster mounts.

I personally have leveled many characters before the recruit-a-friend bonus exp system, the boost in exp from level 10-50, and now these far cheaper mount costs. I've spent far more than my fair share of gold on mounts and I believe I deserve a refund of the gold I had paid previously; I believe we all deserve a refund.

I know you guys are a company, and companies aren't in the business of pleasing people, they're in the business of making money, so I'm sure from a money standpoint this is the most logical way to go, but you're upsetting many of the older and more valued customers by making these unnecessary changes without rewards. It's like any company offering discounts to new customers, most companies offer compensation to their current customers or often the same deal they give the new ones.

It's truly a great thing that online gaming has expanded to the point where a game can grow and evolve over time with new content. As a gaming company, we can look back with hind sight and make changes to update older content within the context of everything that has come since.

Several times over this has led to price adjustments in a number of areas, and we do not reimburse items or money due to changes in content. There are simply too many variables and too many changes each content patch to attempt to compensate anyone who's been negatively affected by a change.
