Easier Payment Options (08/23/2011)

[Alhanelem]

You two are cute together. And by the way, under the current system it takes twenty one and a half years for your balance to return to zero.

Under thte current system it will take a month or two for your balance to return to zero, because the new pay exact option will be available then and you can zero out your balance.

Also I'm pretty sure someone else mathed it out to 8 and a half years, not 21.

Is this game still going to be around in 8 and half years?

I don't see any reason for it not to be.

I find it amusing that someone who works for a website that steals information and data gathered/researched by others without citing it also defends policies that were at the most basic level, theft.

At least you're consistent Analhelm

Yay! Thank you SE for extending the cut off date until the new payment methods are in place. It's nice to know I won't be getting cut off from FFXI next week! /happydance!

This is good news! But what about the people that all ready transferred? Are there any steps we can take to return our accounts to the previous set up we were used to or are we stuck babying the crysta system or click and buy until the auto billing is implemented later on?

All of the content initially posted by GE to its wikis was created by itself and its users or former users. Any content taken directly from another location does link to its original source., and in any case where I have been made aware of a lack of such linking, I have added links to such sources when verifiable. We have no "policies that were at the most basic level, theft.

So you are seriously, with a straight face, are going to tell us that at least 50% (and I'm being generous with such a low number) of the information of ffxiclopedia was not directly stolen from either the BGWikia or the Math sticky on the forums? lol

I don't defend Click and Buy, except the unneeded hatred towards that company by idiots who think that a Google Search is the same as justifiable research. If you are going to hate a company, find a valid reason for hating a company besides somebody posting that their friend of a friend of a relative of a cousin got screwed by somebody using Click and Buy.

Bolded for emphasis.

This is what happens when I go home and leave the official forum troll to his own devices. I have my own reasons for disliking CnB - my bank raising the red flag through three forms of communication (phone, post, and electronic through the banks internal system) being said reason. So yeah, sound the klaxons and go on red alert, because the company is a pos.

That being said, you're better off on my ignore list. Because I cannot stand you. Not one fraking bit.

I wouldn't worry about it one little bit. Don't let it spoil your day. Just because one person isn't affected doesn't make the rest of the world idiots.

More than enough people did reasonable due diligence when choosing their payment options. Plenty of links were provided in the original thread for people to research. Others trusted that SE knew what they were doing and went with it. Even more went into panic mode and chose perhaps the only option open to them. They are not idiots either, just a tad foolish for being in a big hurry at worst. When problems were encountered, they were reported in this and other Forums and SE finally acknowledged them. It just remains to be seen if the same message has been delivered to EU affected people and regions where no options were available at all.

The point is that the community came together to express it's collective opposition based on factual information provided by players such as yourself, and that is commendable.
