I can't pay them to buy exansions

[Tommara]

Which I'm guessing is because my account is so old (FF11 and later FF14, both at release), my username has nothing to do with my e-mail address (which is at should be - requiring usernames to be e-mail addresses is moronic - half way there to hacking an account, or encouraging the use of free e-mail accounts).

Which results in I can't give Square Enix money, since my username is so old (when programmers had a clue), it's not an e-mail address. And if if your username is not an e-mail address, it's an automatic fail at log in at the Square Enix store.

Yeah, I know, create a fake e-mail account so I can give them money.

Just pisses me off that I can't give them money using my FF14 account.

Fortunately, I can still play the game with my non e-mail-based user name. I just can't give them any money beyond paying for my subscription.

How dumb is that, ya know?
