Well I can't see anything in this rules that I have crossed.So that wasn't any rule-breaking or spam from my side but it was censorship from yours.I invested a lot of money in Pokemon TCG and I want to know why the prices of the cards have fallen 10 times while MAGIC has only gained it.
Avoid addressing any posts to any WotC employees, and it's a no no addressing posts to MODS... reach us at [email protected] or... individually

[RANT WARNING TAG]
I missed your other problems so I cant address them but here is my .05 (adjusted for inflation)
You state you have invested alot in pokemon.
I hate this part of the business. You never INVEST in trading cards. Investing is what you do to make a proffit (possibly)
Trading cards should be for collecting because YOU enjoy the cards or you enjoy playing the game.
The false stock market type of stockmarket mentality towards collectable cards and Beenie things is a joke and if you sucumb to it you will lose out.
When my son really wants a card he may save and get it. Thankfully He understands he is paying for a hard to get card to make his decks more competitive. Myself and he know for darn well these WILL NOT PAY FOR COLLEGE in a few years.
Sorry for the rant and its not personal. I just see this happening to many kids all the time. There are also unscrupulous card shop owners and certain Publications that list prices that take advantage of kids creating a false "investment" market.
But its a free trade economy and parents should be doing the education of kids....ah well
[Back on topic tag]
The prices falling and rising have nothing to do with WoTC. Thats the local area your in and how peoples interest is in a certain game at the moment. Seems to me Pokemon is a bit low due to the new compitition and Magic is pretty steady over the years.
Thanks for listining.
FYI
I am not an employee or mod , just a dad and a player
