How SE thanks its current player base

You should unsubscribe to make more room for SE's attempt at getting more people to subscribe.

Your logic is astounding ...

Is it really that hard to understand that 4 days after a content patch may not be the absolute best time to do one of these Free Login events?

you are tarded. please dont play MMO's anymore

To be honest, I am all for promotions to bring in new blood. Gold Saucer or no... But if the servers are starting to suffer from it, then I would suggest SE use some of their resources and invest in more servers. Obviously if this is a major milestone and a sign of things to come, new servers and a free transfer would only improve the congestion and help ease character creation if we could move some folks off the already crowded servers such as Balmung.

I really am all for Free Log In Weekends, so long as it doesn't compromise the well being of current paying customers. After all, we're the ones who have have been supplying the funds to do these promotions.

Ophie-Mio, do you realize that I was joking about "dumb ideas", right? At least, I hope so.

I may be wrong, but I think you took too seriously.

I dont think free log in is a bad idea but I think it is right now. It wont bring in new players if they come into a game with wait times, congestion and lag it will just turn them off more. Yes they should have waited a little while after a patch for this. Poor timing...
It is bad for both existing and returning players at this time.

Yall need to think this way..
Free Login weekend and this weekend+a week and another weekend means more users, more users mean more subscriptions, more subscriptions means SE gets More money, more money and players = NEWER AND BETTER CONTENT! Oh and probably better server stability cuz they would have the irl gil to most likely fix that issue. Yeah I'm on Malboro and it isn't that populated as Gilgamesh and all that but still. Some servers are locked out from new character creation. Lately, I have seen a ton of new players and I have crappy interwebs (just saiyan) on wifi mind you and I do not have any lag nor and am I locked out of Gold Saucer.

Not trying to troll... but some of yall need to think before you type :]
