Just curious, what server were you on and what day and time?|

Anyway, your best bet is to try sending a pm to Zwillinger or Avatea, the Community Managers.

I mean no offense, but calm down. The title's don't bestow any special benefit at all and there were no costume codes or anything given out at the time. If I could, I'd gladly give you the 7 Year Anniversary title that I have on my main. It's not doing anything for me. It wouldn't do anything for you though either. Sorry, but I just don't see a reason to be upset about it. If you didn't get the D.O.P.E. badge, then I'd be a bit more understanding.

Technically correct, but not totally correct. There were Steampunk pack codes given out, but not until the after party, AFTER the Praetorian Surge was pushed back. Or uh, more accurately, not until after Emperor Cole was distracted by coffee. And bad insults. And took his ball to go home.

If you didn't see titles getting handed out then I don't know what to tell you, I saw the devs repeatedly asking in the Admin channel if everyone had a title, and if anyone still needed one to go to a specific area of Pocket D so they could identify those people more easily.

That was for the one on Freedom, right? OP never specified which event he was talking about; just that he was "at Poc D on the correct server at the correct time". If OP isn't talking about the event on Freedom on the 27th, then there were no costume codes given out at all.

The only event that the devs attended AND which gave a code, both of which the OP references, was the Praetorian Surge. I was not aware that the devs were on hand for the "month-ish" of other server attacks. I know for certain no codes were advertised to be given out for any of those, so the OP is obviously not talking about them.

Yeah, it was the main Freedom one.
I was in Poc D 7 from 9:40 PM EST on, while the announced time was 10:00 EST PM.
Saw dev's chatting, but never saw word one about handing anything out.
Saw the "we'll get to all instances" post a lot.
I was also on for a good amount of the Virtue version, but never saw any hint that a title would be given out there, but saw plenty of Virtue characters with it the next day.
(I was not on near the end of that one...)
I was trying not to sound too irate, since the title has no game effect.
But it does irk me that the announcements said "do X to get Y", and I did X, but, um, no Y...

Maybe you just missed it.
