Why was Click N Buy Added again

That might hold water except for the simple fact that they set up the same POL billing option for the JP with-in the SEID biling system. If it is integrated into the SEID account management for FFXI, it can also be integrated for use with FFXIV. So, that negates the notion they are trying to pull FFXIV/FFXI into the same billing system options if they are going to single out one option like this for just one region of players.

In short. that is where it all breaks down, regardless. They have tipped the scales of equality by taking the extra steps required to extend this established method to just one region of players.

They probably had some bullshit notion about japanese less likely to get hacked or something.
I still find it ironic they want us to use a company blacklisted by lots of big name banks to increase our security.

It's more likely that less JP people are using the restore process after being "hacked" to duplicate gear/gil than US/EU people are. I hear about people being "hacked" all the time, where they actually had a friend "steal" their stuff so they can get it restored, effectively doubling their loot.

They seriously need a rate-down feature on this forum so when a certain idiot posts the same false information a million times, we can rate them down so that people that are new to the forum aren't exposed to their inane BS.

This has nothing to do with PSN getting hacked. This payment system SE has with Clickandbuy, UltimatePay and Crysta was long in place for FFXIV. Wasn't much of a surprise that they now using the same system for FFXI.

ClickandBuy has the lowest Rating possible at the Better Business Bureau, why would they have someone with a HORRIBLE reputation handle the money of their loyal subscribers, do they even care?!

More then likely when the bid when out, ClickandBuy offered the lowest amount to SE. So they went with them. It's always about money. Still urging those that are saying "I'm not going to ClickandBuy or Crysta" next month to actually follow-through with this! If enough of us say no and no longer play, they have to listen because we'll be cutting into their profits. No company wants to see that.

The notion of "it's always about money." its kinna stupid, why do they hire experienced programers to develop their games, while they can just hire some high-school-part-time students to do the work for cheap! Cause part time students can not do the job like the experienced can.

SE can save a few bucks by switching to CnB, but they didn't know that CnB are just high-school-part-time students.
