I find this to be very humerous.

You should email them back and tell them that their crappy Party Points store is the reason you left the site.

Seriously, maybe they'll listen if enough people tell them off.

In the very least it'll feel good.

I will have the last laugh as I hoard my points. Someday, perhaps decades in the future, I will log in to the 'Redeem Points' section and see hookers, Porsches and crack. All of you rubes will have spent your points on boxes of beanies and drawstring bags (drawstring bags, really WTF!), and all the good stuff will be left for me.

Honestly I value my huge hoard of points, but for the life of me I don't know why I care. The things I can spend it on actually have negative worth to me. The merchandise would go straight to the garbage, and the freeroll entries net less than I make during my regular play. But I still check my status every couple of days just to see the inexorable rise in my number of points. Maybe it's a comfort thing. Even if my bankroll shrunk today my points tower keeps on growing.

I am quite sure that someday I will give up and blow them on beanies and the next day they will be offering $1 a point.
