Thanks for all the feedback. There are some good and not so good points made here that I'd like to reply to:
Strategy said:
E-Mail Apple it's against their terms of use to take away paid items, that's why the can't reset pro pack allies.
It's interesting they don't reset pro-pack accounts...this is a pro-pack account and guess what?...it was paid for with nobs from doing quests just like those seals were paid for...hmmm
Orangeboom said:
If you are farming nobs why did you reset?
A strategy I use to increase the number of quests I can do.
DyIacer said:
You can a also buy gold with nobs
If you reset, you lose the gold
Same logic with SoD
True. I made the gold point in my original post but see the pro-pack logic just made.
-Xx_-AJ-_xX- said:
That's why it is under defense potions, mate. Technically, you agreed to losing the items.
Technically I don't know what I agreed to losing on a reset. Some items you keep some items you lose. It's not entirely clear which is my point. Also technically they are under def pots but you don't lose them when someone attacks you. That's the kind of inconsistencies the devs create that makes so many things unclear in this game.

Your own fault, you are the only one to blame
Not entirely true or I would not have made the thread. I am making the case for shared blame/honest mistake/what harm would a refund in this case be. I accept that I should have asked before resetting instead of assuming. That was either lazy or careless on my part.

You stupid idiot, devs shouldn't repaid you for the act of being so stupid /).-
Which part of reset don't you understand?
This is squarely in the category of not so bright feedback. Stupid idiot...a master orator and reasoning machine (someone can explain those big words to you Wolfie). I am asking to repaid for an honest mistake. I've done hundreds of resets so I understand them pretty well. At the same time the devs curve ball introductions are not so well understood. How many times do they completely mishandle introducing something new or introduce something without fully understanding the impacts? If I'd made a thread crying about losing all my gold when I reset then your comments would have been more apt if crude.
Thanks for providing your account though when I feel like running some bars on some of my bigger non-reset accounts.

Please return the thread back to it's whiny topic about how OP expects ata to give them some candy and say "there there" after they pressed a button that informed them that they would lose everything, and then they cried that everything dissappeared!
Weak attempt at sarcasm? It's not whiny. Have you ever read forums??? I don't expect candy. I don't expect anything. I am making an argument that under a particular set of facts a refund might be warranted. And your characterization that I was informed I'd lose everything is not accurate either as I never lose everything when I reset. It's a gray area and thus the discussion. I do thank you for getting the thread back on topic...your only solid contribution.

if I had 7 SOD's - I would have emailed them before resetting.
Absolutely fair point which I concede. Solid valiant knight feedback showing how it's done.
Iphito said:
nobilty can be used to buy gold.. is that now something that we should keep on reset as well?, OP's logic says that we should... (remember, seals DO drop freely from game from time to time).
Once again wrong Iphito. I acknowledged that you can actually use nobs to buy gold but it is crystal clear that gold does not carry over on reset. I stated that I'm not sure that anyone even trades nobs for gold any more especially when you have HTE and all these bonus spells. My argument is not that we should keep gold but that it is unclear what happens to these pots that don't act like pots at all and are purchased with nobs.

I got my SOD back yesterday when there was confusion in the ckan and another player and i sealed at the exact same time and hte ate both seals :lol: im shocked they didnt say "sorry for the inconvenience but its your fault our flaws ate 6$ of yours"
If that's true then good grief :| I guess your case for confusion was greater than mine or maybe more likely the case your cash contribution was greater than mine? :lol:

You are taking advantage of a loophole in their system by doing the reset pattern. Why do you think they would reward someone who is openly taking advantage of their game?
This is a tired argument. Loophole schmoophole. If you read the help sections that describe the game it clearly states that nobs randomly drop from doing quests. If I dedicate this account to doing quests how is that taking advantage of the game. That is just one way of playing the game. The devs took xstals out of the reset equation because they felt that was an exploit. They made a change. This however is just playing the game. Some choose to pony up $42 for 7 seals and I chose to do 35,000 quests. Can you say which is the proper way to get it done? I got it done and don't appreciate it being all wiped out in the confusing way it happened.
Thanks for all your contributions.
