The system is supposed to be a "Thank you" for players who help keep the game running, and it's pretty irritating that past patronage apparently means diddly-squat. Why aren't you counting the past 3 months? If you can set an arbitrary date (March 1st) then you can set an arbitrary date 3 months in the past (December 1st).
"Fresh start" doesn't even really make sense, and it makes even less sense as a "Thank you"

Based on the MVP Special rank, they’ll receive Star Force enhancement cost discounts. 3% for Silver, 5% for Gold, and 10% for Diamond.
MVP Specials will receive premium benefits in the Auction House, including no search limits, increase in buying/selling slots, usage of the advanced combo box search, increased auction duration, and a lowered tax.
Honestly this ease of use should be applied to all player not just mvp and the discounts should basically give us since whales spend so much
Additionally, when I think about MVP rewards being given out retroactively, I get the sense the purpose is defeated - especially if you include MVP Bronze. Of course that is subjective, and you might consider the purpose to be overall activity, but what bothers me is that we were not aware we'd have the system until last week. To be retroactive, immediately a sum of people would be at the top, without passing the tiers naturally. It just feels odd to me to "skip ahead" just because the system only just came out. Again, this paragraph just speaks to what feels odd to me, but I felt it valid to mention.
Top? What top? Is there a race? A hierarchy?
All it would do is make people feel a little more appreciated. The rewards would expire soon anyway, if they don't keep buying NX, and those who do buy will "pass them" in this imaginary hierarchy.
All Nexon is gaining by this "fresh start" is making it clear right off the bat that their "gratitude" is ephemeral and their memory is as short as a spoiled brat's. Or a gold-digger. As someone else posted in that same thread you linked, (Not that it's not clear from the details already posted, but not giving people even the slightest recognition for past purchases, a worthless Bronze rank, emphasizes this).
I don't think that's related. People always buy heavily into Philosopher's Books and Marvel Machine. I doubt the lure of a temporary title is bigger than the lure of a Frenzy Totem.
You're right about that, but it will probably be enough to squeeze a bit extra out of people who might call spending earlier in order to get the title. It's not like they don't have these sales planned in advance.
Nexon will only thank you for the money you spend from now on.
What a joke.
That's exactly what I said (in a slightly more sailor mouth) on Reddit. That's just my personal opinion, however.
I can say the feedback about the system starting on March 1st was forwarded along regardless of my opinion, though.
Getting it on the first day doesn't "means youd no longer have to spend money".
All the rewards expire and your tier degrades if you don't spend any more.
Getting it on the first day is a "thank you for your spending so far, and if you want to keep these benefits, keep spending." It's a far nicer way of saying, "spend more" than "all you did before now doesn't count, so start spending."
Thats what makes me less disappointed about it, you truly don't need it, hope it stays like that forever,
but we know nexon will make a good work in the end as always
