The joke is an army of bots getting the same chances to get rewards as everyone else with no investment in nfts. This sort of stuff happens when people abuse the economy. We all get affected.
Hmm so, why did you buy multiple accounts? This game rewards people that invest time and effort and money into a single account to climb the ranks. You can't approach a game with a horizontal growth mentality, and that is exactly what the splinterlands team is doing, its punishing those that try to bot with multiple accounts or use multiple accounts to earn more.
I agree with you in two things you say though.

1. We need packs at an accessible price and we will get it, soon.
2. The gap in power between bronze and silver is huge.
