Personally, they can take their seven pity days and shove them. My time is worth more than the couple of bucks of ‘good will’ they threw in. Because of the 2002 bug, my average log in time is over 4 hours, if I can get in at all, and since I work full time that means I get to do roulettes and then have to log back out.

I really doubt this will get any better any time soon. Square knew full well the number of copies of the game they sold, the number of active accounts they have and the state of Other MMOs right now, and they did nothing to prevent this fiasco. What good is seven free days when you can’t get on to play during those days?
