360 Day Veteran Reward - Aetheryte Ticket

[NyneAlexander]

You are horribly mistaken and have absolutely no clue on how cellular service providers work. It was a nice try though. I can always break it down for you how VZW jacks your wallet and your hole.

You're right. Because I see the same coin from a different side, I have absolutely no idea how cellular service providers work. I pay my bill every month. I feel the rape. I understand how they get you. I also understand how an unlocked brand new iphone will cost you $800, whereas that same iphone will cost you $200 with a two year contract. I get that it is not the same as receiving a reward for subscribing to ffxiv, but truthfully, the initial comparison of square enix to verizon, in this context, shouldn't have been made in the first place. Because there is no compelling reason, other than entertainment, to subscribe to an MMO, whereas there are many compelling reasons, not limited to entertainment, to subscribe to verizon cellular service. Please remember that, as well as I am not the one who opened that can of worms, when choosing to insult me.

A rewards program in this context, is incentive to add to your sub. There are many many many other mmo's out there. There are only 5 major cellular providers in north america, and even that can be argued from region to region. It was a bad comparison from the gate.

And finally, its a shame that so many people around these parts literally get off on being as condescending as possible.
