I don't see the problem. Emails are not storage bins. There's no reason an email should sit unopened/unclaimed in an active account for 30 days especially if a person is sending it to himself.

True but I think that would entail a mountain of work and if they did decide to do it we wouldn't see anything for quite some time.

Actually that's not true. You have the same idea as the majority of the playerbase which is:

Leave it alone. The vet reward system is working as intended and there is no need to make any changes to it.

Thank you. That didn't show up when I was double-checking my memory. Probably because I was using "Advertising" as the focus of my search instead of "Subscribers".

I appreciate your response.

So did I, and I can say after playing that particular F2P game that it was worth every penny I spent on it.

What started me laughing was how excited the woman was to have this whacko blowing his nose in her lap. The rest was icing on the cake.

NP Decorum we're all friends here. My comment about F2P not working for Dungeon Runners was directed at their inability to maintain a large enough playerbase and how NCSoft responded. DR was designed to be F2P from the start with an option for more if you paid a $5.00 monthly fee.

That's odd, the only thing I recall you suggested about advertising was the following.

If I missed a thread where you suggested what the OP has posted please provide a link to it.

Does NCSoft own FreeRealms? From what I've seen NCSoft shuts down games that stop earning a profit rather than convert them to F2P. See also Auto Assault and Tabula Rasa as additional examples.

Magik (Illyana Nikolievna Rasputina - typically anglicized to Rasputin) is a Marvel Comics character, associated with the X-Men. She is the younger sister of the Russian X-Man Colossus.


Tho I admit I can't think of a reason the other origins are unavailable.

Maybe I'm not up on the terminology and server is the wrong word, but here when Virtue crashes people have the option of switching to Freedom, or Pinnacle, or whichever other server they prefer. But when CO crashes no one can play. The game is down for everyone. The same goes for STO.

Both of those games also share the same Login server/application/program whatever it's called, and when it crashes no one can log into either game.

Just who are you trying to fool Thirty-Seven? You know you love Japanese snot bananas.

That's a nice attitude to have. You should do fine here.

Yeah F2P worked so well for Dungeon Runners that NCSoft shut the game down and all the population problems went away.

I thought it was humorous that people were responding seriously, cuz I've seen the same thing happen to me when I was joking. Sometimes subtle dry humor doesn't translate well on a written forum.

Next time try a little more of this.

How about this compromise Ad, (and I've suggested this for vet reward costumes as well) When they release a new booster/vet reward with new costume pieces, they should give everyone a plain basic model that they can use, and save the fancy/unique model for the booster/vet reward.

That way no one gets screwed. People can either be satisfied with the basic model or they can choose to buy/wait for the booster/vet reward and unlock the fancy/unique model.


I would assume it would work the same way the SG Base item Vet rewards work. If you don't have the code unlocked then you can't buy and place the items in your SG base. Once unlocked and placed anyone in the SG could use it.

I know plenty of base builders that would drool over such a booster, even if it were only decorative items. We really are that desperate for a little base lovin.





On a side note I also have to cast my vote against the pink. Large walls of pink text makes my eyes water and I don't read them. The other colors don't bother me.

Over the years I've noticed that it seems these problems crop up around the release of features that have a huge impact on the game. So I'm not surprised to see them now.

Its says both on the website. One set of equations says 10 meters and further down it says 11 meters. So I accept both answers because they have the math to back them up.

WE HAVE A WINNER!!!

And the crowd goes wild!
