PATCH FEEDBACK - I am sorry but I feel totally screwed by the non permanent (30 Day Expiry) on skins like Guristas Cormorant and Thukka Tribe Edition Thrasher. When I bought these ships there were permanently painted and I paid a premium price for them with the understanding that if I got them blown up they were gone. The flip side of that was that if I didn't get them blown up I had them forever. I paid a premium for the later. I feel pants down bent over a barrel screwed over.

I feel like I walked into a Ferrari dealer paid for a Ferrari, took it home, loved it, washed it, drove it with pure abandon, loved it. Then in the middle of the night Dealer Franchise drove round to my place and swapped my beloved Ferrari with a Hyundai and tried to calm be by saying but it's ok because you can have as many accidents as you like and we will replace it for you .... for the next 30 days. Sorry but I want my freaken Ferrari back thanks.

And to be honest, this argument doesn't even hold water cause guess what, it's only a certain type of Ferrari we are doing this with. All other Ferrari owners can keep their Ferrari permanently, go on their merry AND no matter how many times they get blown up we will replace it for them.

The reason for this is so their prices don't plummet and people can actually make some money of them. On the bright side those 30 days skins are ridiculously cheap.

If you had a painted ship before the change check the redeeming section of the client when it first runs you will find your skin there, I did for alll of my skinned ships.
