According to what I read it should of already ended but I can still post and login.

Did it get extended?

Probably, there was an update that occurred last week that took much longer than what they estimated it to be. That could have been the reason for it.

Ok thanks, guess I'll mess around till they boot me offline then.

>_> Kind of wish they would have mentioned it was extended lol had the chance to actually do something (which is rare these days, considering almost no one on Siren does anything anymore o.o), but decided to get off because everything I found said either 2am cst or 4am cst. Seriously, both posts by SE, that are up at the same time, say two different things lol They should probably update those.

Apparently, it's over. Not sure if I'll resub to do the ending stories or not... only 2 people still playing from my old friends list, and nobody to do battles with to catch up. (Stonewalled in Adoulin missions, and no 119 gear aside from a few Dnc and Mnk af upgrades I could solo)

Bleh... not feeling it... but so tempted... but so disappointed...

That's how I feel too :/ I mean, I want to finish the ending story, but I really don't feel like paying 13.00 and only 1-2 people I know still play and barely, not to mention any sort of content I want to do to catch up (some of the harder delve, vagary etc), not a single person is interested in and there's 0 shouts for anything. Tried a few escha nm with a friend, but seems you need 6+ people for that. Tried a shout for it, got nothing. Like someone said in another topic, it's not that there's not enough people, it's just no one is motivated to do anything and from my experience, it seems only JP are actually doing anything anymore, based on the shouts and examining a few who have escha gear already.

I'm still keeping my hopes up that they will lower the subscription or go f2p.

Can't justify the subscription fee when the game is in the state they left it after the last announcement though.

Seems the free access has finally ended, if you don't log out you won't be kicked though.

It's over. My wife no longer has access to Phoenix.

The starting date at least on the European site is erroneous (freebie-time started a day early, methinks), and indeed, I noticed I could still log in yesterday. While not exactly surprising, the campaign website saying it was indeed over, made the fact quite odd.

Moreover, I can actually still log in. While it may be a mistake of sorts, it would seem rather strange if it did not affect everyone...

Heh. Guess they finally reached me, too (between now and 12 hours or so before now).

I hope there will be more of these, as I know people who would have liked to visit, but the campaign coincided with their trips and whatnot.

As for me, the campaign came about at a convenient time (for once!), so I could make use of it, but I will be paying up again as normal within few days methinks.

They actually seem to manually disconnect people who refuse to log, same applies to the forum if you attract a gms attention.

Which is kinda funny, one of my accounts was online for 2 days longer than the other. There are still people online that I know of that are free access.

I considered something like this, but in the cases I was talking about personally, I actually logged in instead of being on-line for days for example.

Seems a bit odd that things would work different from the usual kick when the time comes (I tend to pay for 30 days at a time, so I often get to experience it that way).

Oh whell!
