Hello,

 

The team has given me an information that gifting is removed from Armas. I apologize for the inconvenience. 

[Hyenard]

[KurtKlops]

This is intended? We can not make gifts via Armas anymore?

Probably to do with folks buying legendaries with G1C, etc.

granted how much it got exploited, that was a good choice

hopefully a better solution for the future, gifting was definitely positive experience. Specially in community ran events.

Something that has now been ruined by scammers and g1c traders that cause more issues for support i would hazard a guess?

[dett2]

Why remove?

temporally? or permanently?

[MurkTheMerc]

So how will I give out prizes for events? I just started one in the events section and now I have to cancel my Twitch Follower milestone premium giveaway.

It's better if it's permanent.
It gets used by trading also.

pls unlock gifts : (

[loveAPB]

wtf? pls unlock gifts

[Bornstellar]

That's a shame. Gifting caused no issues.

[BartMcRoy]

There's a reason for everything right now.

 

Maybe they'll bring it back later, but for now let's let them focus on fixing the game first, yeah?

wh ... why ? :v

[Thial]

My guess would be that either they are working on something better or gifting has been connected to frauds / scams so they might have removed it forever or temporarily.

legendary trading or in general APB$ for armas trading was to highly abused. because people would charge via paypal and then do chargebacks. this is most likely in move to counter fraud which they have stated that APB is having a issue with atm.

 

 

this seems like a obvious choice considering the system was so highly abused much like the refer a friend system was highly abused for free goodies.
