So yeah, invites have nothing to do with whether or not you've been supporting/playing XIV over these past two years.. in fact it seems as if that actually hurts your chances. I guess in their eyes, they already have our support so they don't think we'll rage that much (or for too long) if they overlook us for early access to the unfinished ARR.
All they have to do is to release a video in the next days with bad grass or too much jumping people, or bland sky boxes or too much bouncing dragons, and the forums will stop ragging about this.
