Regarding the "Paragon Press"

Boy, am I getting a lot of that lately. Luckily, everyone knows that I'm critical because I love the game, and our OCR team. Right Z?

I just double checked. I have the newsletter/promotions thing checked. I never get the emails.

I do get replies from support and notices from NC when I update/change billing, etc.

But is this on NCSoft's end? IIRC they like to use a 3rd party solution for their emails vs the "2nd.5" approach like with the web team.

I use to get everything sent via email, until sometime right after Valentine's 2009. My information, nor my options, changed. And the marketing check box is still checked; I've even unchecked it and checked it back days later long ago.

It's a good question, but regardless of who's actually handling the "nuts and bolts", the end result leaves something to be desired, IMPO.

No...I somehow never get emails from Paragon (except for bugs/petitions that I do in-game)....

On my account management page, under "Receiving Newsletter", it says "Yes". Is that the option for this? I did not receive it.

And I have a very limited spam filter. It simply moves suspect spam into another folder where it stays until I review it.

I haven't gotten an e-mail in months, possibly years at this point. I've checked my account and you have my correct e-mail, I have receive newsletter marked as 'yes,' and I do not have anything from NCSoft blocked.

So can you please have someone look into why I'm not getting these?

This applies to me too.

Not the Paragon Press this time, I know. But I thought this was pretty decent. Nicely done.

Yep, same for me. Receive newsletter is marked as "Yes" on my account, my email address is correct (and I do receive support emails when I raise an incident, etc), and I have all @ncsoft.com emails marked as safe.

I have not received a newsletter or promotional email in a very long time.

Interestingly, I do get the newsletters, but none of the images ever seem to download for some reason. So I get an advertisement but no graphics. Like ever.

...and clicking on the html link, I'm being told I can't find the page....

That sounds about right. The only one I ever remember getting was the Going Rogue announcement, but that was delivered through a different company, if I remember correctly.

FWIW, I received it yesterday Dec. 6th, but the email itself is dated November 30th, as a few of you mentionned.

LOL And I *didn't* get that one. Three copies of Paragon Press, late, and not a single one of the TW announcement.

Maybe you just don't get the market updates?

It could be worse. They could do like movies have done with reviewer quotes.

SMERSH: City of Heroes Freedom is epic failure wrapped in greasy disappointment and dipped in sticky greed.

Would become

"SMERSH: City of Heroes Freedom is epic..."
