While I understand the consequences of injecting a large amount of gold into the economy in a short interval, I don't see the problem with making books retroactive for faction only.

So every mission that you've done you would get credit for when you receive faction for turning the book in, but you would not get credit for when you receive the gold.

I'll /sign for faction. I'd like my money too (have legendary guardian), but thats obviously bad, as stated by whoever it was (Linsey?).

I'd love both - but if money doesn't happen, I'll more then gladly take faction only since that's what I am after.

I do wonder though if they are keeping track when a character did the missions.

been suggested before i'm pretty sure, but the amount of money into the economy would devastate its already dead state. all we need is more chaos gloves. -_-

faction, maybe, but who cares, of you really want the max title, you'll probably play enough to get it anyway

Gee, this is original.

Give it up people, it's not happening. At this point, it would be absolutely impossible for ANet to know who finished the missions before the update, and hence who should get bonus storybook pages. There is zero reason why they should have saved the date and time that you first finished a particular mission.

this seems like a waste of anet's time and energy. while it would be nice i'm not gonna moan about it. for most people they could have done the books over again and gotten the gold and faction in the time they have spent complaining about it.

I could care less about the money. But for those of us that haven't maxed out the faction titles, well, it'd be nice.

There are a lot of things I would have like to have seen retroactive. A lot.

It happens a lot when they are developing as they go. Nothing that can really be done about it.

What if you got all those titles AFTER the books?
That's why we're wondering if they are keeping track or has the ship sailed already.

it would be unfair for those who got those faction titles. Want a grind based title so go grind...

So /unsigned.

Won't be done most likely, but retroactive would be nice for those who have already gone through them all.

Love the thing with the economy argument though. rotfl

Anyone been having problems with these books?
I have done missions and not gotten credit, and my buddie has, and i have gotten credit and my buddy didnt.
He just did every single mission, beat shiro and the book was missing #8.
He then turned in the incomplete book (missing #8) to Shiro, he got 3k gold, but he didnt get the 30k kurz faction.

I helped him with some of the missions, and when we did #1 he got credit for it and i didnt, and yes we both had the books in our inventory.

/signed. Its not fair for those who had to beat it and had to do it again to refill a book. Anet can fix this and they know it.
