Oh and lets not forget items for preordering ARR, HW and SB... If you didn't meet the requirements before the expiry dates, you can no longer get the items.

A partial list of what is not longer available is located at: http://support.na.square-enix.com/fa...5382&kid=68090

Timed exclusives are not something specific to this game.
May I ask why you feel it should be forever? Putting promises aside. Mostly just wondering if the reason some feel it should be forever is simply because of the promise.
