HOW SQUARE ENIX TRULY TREATED ABYSMALLY

I don't get these third party things.
Is this like a US thing or something?

In Germany the banks use algorithms to detect suspicious and potentially fraudulent debits on your account, and they will charge those back or decline payment before even informing you, which is a good thing, but can get you into trouble in cases like these, because it makes it look like you're trying a scam on SE, so of course they will shut down your account if they cannot collect the money for your sub, or the money is charged back from them, which means you already used playtime you didn't pay for.

Interesting, never had this happen to me in Germany.

Guess I'm old-school with just using my card and expecting payments to work.

Here is the "wonderful" part about it, even if it happened to you, chances are 99% that you wouldn't actually know about it, unless they thought a legit payment was a fake one, which is actually pretty rare, but not non-existent. They basically do this to cover up for how ridiculously unsafe the whole credit card system is. How do you think RMT companies in games pays for things? I can 100% tell you it isn't out of their own pocket, and due to the large amount of them, wouldn't it be strange that we hear so few people complain about getting their credit card information stolen? These things are almost always handled under the table, unless the rare cases algoritms miss the transaction in question in which case the victim reports directly, which I can tell you rarely happens.

Why is it that people who make posts like these always fail to use paragraphs?

Because they're transcribing their real life tirade.

You ever heard one? Like a real one? Like the "I'm not gonna breathe at all as I scream at the top of my lungs for a solid 3mins52secs about everything that's wrong with everything" tirade?

I think OP was going for that and brought up the realism by making no paragraphs.
