Was the demotion of FP announced?

What you were trying to say then was misinterpreted then, and in as far as what you've suggested here about having it transparently visible in the stats tab, I agree.

Read my response to you right above the one you quoted

Yeah, if I knew it was coming, would have paid a bit more attention to some FP things I wanted to get done before the conversion. Some Elite feats and 'heavy burn' items like the Temple runner. Going in +57 CR with full stats > 15 CR and 'piercing'. I'm sure some would debate that, but if it's not the case, what the heck is the clamp doing?

Not to mention I had a few toons I'd still not hit 999 on. 7 or 8, yes...but I had a few I'd have hit the raids and bounties on last week for one last dip in the trough.

PLUS...I was planning on hitting RW, FV and FF regs with full groups the day before, then the day after to do a real comparison. I thought that day would be in a few weeks though...next episode I guess.
