And we're getting ultra-early Beta access.

This isn't even my final form.

though I disagree to that everyone knew announcement thing, only those who checked before it scrolled down and saw it over the fat pinned legacy tab on the left would know.

And that's all that they were really targeting, those who were playing the game "currently". It wasn't a " Everyone is going to know advertisement. If the word got out then that's fine, but it was really targeting for current players. If everyone knew, then a lot of people would jump on it for the three months and wait for ARR, SE would lose out on 60 bucks a person a year. "If" there 200k population and they all did it that's $12,000,000 lost.

So, I don't believe it was targeted towards everyone, just the current fanbase that stuck through the game through thick and thin.

You know I could see this being as stupid a topic as everyone thinks it is IF it didn't involve real money.
The fact that legacy doesn't have to pay as much as everyone else to me is the biggest problem. I don't care about the choco or the name in the creds. But when you start adding real life money into the mix, that's when I have a problem.

Oh well. I'll still play. It's just tough luck I started up again too late.
For all you non-legacy players out there just remember. Your monthly sub is more helpful to SE then the Legacy people. Maybe that will make you feel a little better.

Probably not.

Didn't they say players still have a chance to get a legacy status after the first three months of release date?

It would be a good idea for them to be returned.

A better solution would be.... we never speak of this thing known as Legacy status ever again.

Agree that was their target audience, but you'd have to admit they could have easily required you to have an existing account.

It's not SE is evil and I think you get me on that, I'm just saying "what you intended wasn't reality SE and ultimately you have to play in reality". But those few people affected barely made a peep, you were in that thread actually- :P.

For those few people I speak, as well as to promote kind response in telling people the event is over/how to confirm. Since some people's no's are quite bad lol

No they did not. Show me where "they" said this. You either got it or you didn't. I'm glad they are not giving it away. People who stayed loyal to the game should get the perks it has nothing to do with being elite. If you was active and gave a crap about the game you would have legacy. SE even posted it on lodestone so it wasn't some big ass secret.
