Petition: clickandbuy the only way no,thanks.

Off topic:
I thought that RAIST actually left for a while because of the whole character linking thing on the forums. Glad to you see you're back RAIST.

On topic:
SE please bring back direct payments via credit/debit cards please, these new payment options are horrible for the simple fact that they cannot be used in all regions. It's really not cool to have the door slammed in my face after 6 years of paying for this game with no issues. Not a great way to ensure your customers stay with you and pick up other games you make.

So TL;DR translation:

You can't sue them for any corrections should they screw up billing. Any crysta you bought isn't actually owned by you (hence the failure to get it vetted in some countries.)

Oh and if you don't use your account for a year you may (almost certainly will) lose your account and anything (including crysta\virtual goods) tied to it.

@Neika
Nah... had to take a break. Things were getting a bit intense with online and r/l dramas and some debates were getting a bit rowdy. I had to take a step back before I went all A-Pimp-Named-Slickback on someone who really didn't deserve it.

The mandatory character data still doesn't sit too well with me. If this is all they do with it, it's fine I guess. Still doesn't make anyone's posts more or less credible because they're showing a job level. Kinda a pointless feature for them to spend time implementing when there have been more important issues on the table--like maybe fully researching the consequences of what they've done with this payment debaucle.

/sigh

Guess SE not letting me use my MasterCard anymore (re-entering my info trick didn't work) and now this made my decision to go back to PSU solid. I'll just play that until PSO2 comes out in Japan.

I Just want to sign on to the petition. This has caused my 8 year old JP account to be cancelled. this is crap.

Guess what. Some of us don't have any other option if we want to keep playing FFXI, than using our credit cards via ClickAndBuy, meaning we have to "put our personal info in the system"! Why is that so damn hard for you to understand?

And how does your boyfriend know that you can buy an A from BBB? Oh let me guess, he read it online somewhere, didn't he.

If he did, you are countering your own point here:

In short, your posts receive so much opposition because of a few key factors:

They are misinformed or otherwise just flat out WRONG and need to be corrected.
You indirectly challenge/insult others with no justification, and if you felt there was justification, you don't support it.
You flat out refuse to accept when you have been countered, and in the eye's of many have a somewhat childish reaction to it (reference the second point), which has simply exhausted everyone to the point no one is inclined to take you seriously at this point.

You should read through this really slowly and carefully, and take it to heart.

You should all just come play rift. I did. No billing problems here! (sorry I couldn't help myself ROFL!)

hehe... funny you should mention that.. a group in LS was talking about that last night--some even considering upgrading to play it.

One thing I am glad to see is that not too many people lashed out at Matt and Robert (Mods) when they posted here. I felt like they were sent in here as sacrificial lambs to the slaughter................>.< Not their fault the bigwigs couldn't run a brothel in a red light district.

I just used Crysta because my email address is somehow linked to a clickandbuy account already, and i've only just heard of them. XD
They need to let people use atleast UltimatePay for it, it was alot easier, could pay with Paypal which I use for other things.
On the subject of Rift, I tried it and couldnt get into it. (i was playing WoW at the time, too. It felt too much like wow to me), I'm waiting on Guild Wars 2 to come out. Can't wait for it xD
