Actually accepting only people with active accounts would be the worse choice, dunno why people are so mad about this... -.-

Questioning why you didn't get in is just an exercise in futility, you guys are causing undue stress to yourselves, if you really have 24/7 to play you should spend some of that time jogging so you don't have a heart attack or stroke from stress
Well invite periods certainly make people break out their best vocabulary and grammar so they be snarky when discussing why or why not an invite was received. It makes for good reading.
I tell myself when we're all playing beta and then release, we won't care about any of this crap. Forgotten memory. Since I won't care later, I can't get mad now. Not about testing an extremely incomplete version.
Damn it I've said it before and I'll say it again.
I just love your sig so much. I find myself being distracted by work, this forum, etc and just staring at it for a good long 10 minutes or more.



Because when a rule is set, it's not a good thing to break it. It's also not good to communicate something to paying customers and then not honor it.
Also, accepting only people with active accounts ensures an higher percentage of quality testing. The more you open a test, the higher percentage of beta hoppers you get (people that subscribe to every available beta just to have a new game, no matter how polished, to play for a few hours, before they move to the next, without providing any feedback or actual testing).
For the earliest testing the *only* way to do it right is to include only people that can bring a high level of dedication. Which in this case is pretty much equivalent to active subscribers.



It is a cruddy feeling. It is understandable. I know when I didn't get one I was thinking of how many rocks it would take to break all of SE's windows. Alas it's a system we have to work with. Though I feel like I have a better chance on getting a Darklight body piece on a offline server than getting an alpha invite, haha.
Sheesh, I don't think I'd go THAT far.. :xIt is a cruddy feeling. It is understandable. I know when I didn't get one I was thinking of how many rocks it would take to break all of SE's windows.
