No chance on becoming a Legacy Member?

Like it really matters that much anyways, most subscription MMOs are the same price monthly... Only clear benefit you get would be the chocobo and names in credits(lol.).

What? are you stupid?

The real benefit is the 8 char per world for a total of 40 char for 5$ less per month

I don't think you get the post, so I think you are the stupid 1? I said MOST normal MMO fees are the same price as the standard price. So even for the people that have played other subscription based MMOs are used to paying that fee normally. You save 5$ after paying 30$ for 3 months? That still takes 6 months to pay for itself. Personally I don't mind paying 15$ per month because if I played another subscription based MMO, I'd only be paying roughly the same per month there also. So yea. FYI you also get the 8 chars per world for a total of 40 char when you pay standard too.

So this is the true face of kind players of FFXIV? A bunch of people who links Youtube video that points a finger to you and say "Stupid!"? More that just say "You missed your boat, loser!"?
I mean, like I asked to steal something from you, why such hostile arguments?
When I said "Please", I meant it. I know you deserve it more than me, I really do.
You know what is like living a dream since you are a child and see it fading away in front of your eyes just for being 10 days too late? You lost your human empathy somewhere on the road? Am I not someone who, just like you, love this game and was willingly paying to enjoy it, even if a little later?
I paid the box and tried, I really did, to play it since the first day. I insisted on my friend that we give it a second chance because I wanted to play it with him, and finally convinced on august - and be aware, it's not that I didn't like the game in the beginning, I just couldn't bear the OMINOUS latency playing from EU.
So ok, I'm not as much supportive as you all were, but I WAS supportive to SE.
And when ARR will be out for everyone, I will be treated just as like everyone else who bought the new version of the game.
That just feel... Sad.
And I don't want to claim or demand anything, I was just... Let's say, begging, that I had some way to do this.
It doesn't? Ok, I will accept it, no need to be mean with me.

Plus, I would REALLY like to be supportive as you were. I would've REALLY liked to have gotten back in the game before.
I'm just desperate I can't demonstrate it, anymore.
So if there was, let's say, an option to pay in advance 20, 30 or even 40 bucks to give some kind of support, at least economical, to SE, and to receive some kind of reward (even a lower version than yours, that would be fine too!), I would REALLY pay for it and help with all I can.
Because I really believe in this game, and I like it more than any other MMO out there.

And yes, even because that little child that wanted its name to be displayed on a Final Fantasy game credits, know this is his only chance to have his dream accomplished.

They did sent emails out and they did announce it on the Main-page and it was talked about all over the forums. Not to forget the gaming-sites, where it was in the News.
It was known for MONTHS, like others said and they even told us what day the offer ends.
You had like 3 or 4 Months to get into it but u missed it because u didnt care about FFXIV at that time, but Legacy is for those who did care.

I know, it sucks that u missed it, but its your fault. And only yours.

And since both of u dont even care about playing FFXIV:ARR without being legacy, i just cant feel sorry for you.

I didn't said that *I* don't care playing without Legacy, I will play the game anyway.
And again, you seem not having read what I wrote just right before this thing, I know you all deserve the Legacy title more than me. Fod God's sake, I know you all are the SE saviors and I'm just a newcomer, I got it, ok?
I knew this right before writing the post, that's why this isn't either a claim nor a demand.
And I know you can't feel sorry at all, cause you are too pumped being self proud to see farther than your nose.

But then again, what is this, a race to who was more helpful to SE?
Because, you see, you are not the one who determines the entity of the prize you get.
Elsewhere, Mr January 2012 would just say to Mr February 2012: "Hei, dude, I was here before you, I have every damn right to show off my black chocobo to you."
But then again, Mr January 2011 would come forth and say: "Dude, don't think you are someone just cause you are paying since the beginning of the year."
And Mr September 2010 just bump in to point out: "Guys, I was here since the beginning, I should get a lot more than you all do."
Lastly, Mr 1985 jumps out of nowhere and speak out loud: "I was playing Squaresoft games even before they became famous for Final Fantasy I. Just shut up you all, and get me a Cloud's Fenris fully working."

You see, it's not a contest, cause it would be stupid. And everyone of you have a different reason to feel proud being a part of all this, as I do.
I never started all this topic hoping for something different than mercy, but you all should be more empathetic to someone who loves this games as you, even if he realized that too late, for his own very personal reasons. And plus, admit it, and he is deeply sorry for this, as I am.

I'm not out because I was ages too late, I missed the target just a few days.
And you can tell me that I deserve this, and you are right, but that was not my question in the first place, and I'm not accusing SE or blaming no one except myself.

And the question is, just as simple: there is a chance that, any way at all, SE will give a second thought at this and give, before January, a chance to people like me to contribute and be included into this Legacy thing?
Not a moral judgment, I'm not asking that. Just a guess. Or a sure denial, if you have something official that says so.
