The AK-Knife thread, post here if you've been ripped off
Like a lot of people out there, I have an AK-Knife. I bought this gun less than a month ago by saving up coupons from over a hundred dollars spent on ZP. I bought it for three main reasons: I like the AK-47, and I like knifing people, but mainly I wanted a gun that very few people have. The AK-Knife was priced so that if you weren't going to use it all the time or you didn't have every other coupon gun available, you weren't going to buy it. This made it a rare and unique gun, since few people actually did trade in their coupons for it. But now, anyone that remotely likes the AK and has a few thousand ZP from surveys can get one if they're decently lucky. Especially since a melee attack without switching weapons is usually a better advantage than a near useless red dot scope and a silencer, this is probably going to become as popular as the M4-C if not more so, and you see one of those in every other room you join. The point is, all of us who invested a large amount of money in this game and finally got a unique gun are basically SOL, and I for one don't think that's fair. I'm not saying that we should petition Z8 Games or anything, but if you also think that AK-Knife should be take out of the black market crates feel free to copy/paste my sig. I'm not saying to take away the AK- Knife to anyone who won it so far, but spending $100 on crates without winning anything but coupons and then having the single permanent ZP gun that you do get become available to anyone that can fill out a free survey... well it really sucks to be honest. =/

There's always the chance we could have got it, and spent our coupons on something else, like that sexy psg -

True but you would probably earn enough coupons from the crates and still get it by coupons. At least you have it...i want it so bad :[ -
so, ppl use coupons to get the kriss, which they can win off the crates. ppl also use coupons to get the m4-c even though they can win it from the crates, i got my m4-c from coupons as well. point being, dont b selfish and greedy, b appreciative that you have the gun in the 1st place and be happy for the people who have won it from the crates.

if your trying to say that ur garunteed the gun by the time you reach 80 coupons than you are very,VERY wrong. i've opened 130+ kriss crates and never got the kriss, i did however get a net total of 150 coupons or so. point being, nothing in life is garunteed, except for death, so dont make that assumption in your argument. -

well if you have 80 coupons and you want to buy it then it is guaranteed to you by Z8 when you click that exchange button
however gambling on crates is never guaranteed

There's a big difference between the M4-C and what happened to the AK-Knife. The M4-C was made available by coupons for those who spent a ton of money but still weren't able to get lucky enough to get it in a crate. But the AK was originally FOR the people who spent a lot of money on the game, there was absolutely no way to get it other than by supporting the game, but now people can get a few thousand ZP from free surveys and get it, like the guy a few posts above. (Not saying that I'm angry at him, congrats for getting it, but even he admits that it's not fair to the people who spent a ton of money on the game). Imagine you saved up all your coupons and just bought a brand new M4 or AK Gold to stand out for supporting Z8 and keeping the game running, your first permanent ZP gun. Then, Z8 put that rare, gold gun in a crate available to anyone who fills out a survey or two. You'd be pretty PO'd at the whole thing, wouldn't you? Well the AK-Knife is only 20 coupons less, and that's exactly what happened to a lot of people, including myself.
