    why send invites to inactive account? why send to players who no longer play FFXIV? they'll never log back in anyway. its a waste of an invitation i say.

    I think what some people are missing here is that "active FINAL FANTASY XIV account" is referring to an "active FINAL FANTASY XIV service account" listed under "Select Service -> FINAL FANTASY XIV" on your Square-Enix Account Management page, which hasn't been explicitly canceled.

    You don't need to have any paid options (ability to log into a character in FFXIV), to keep your FINAL FANTASY XIV service account active. Keeping an active FFXIV service account without any active characters has always been free. As long as someone had an active FINAL FANTASY XIV service account they could apply for Alpha.

    This is a result of Square-Enix designing the billing system for FFXIV 1.0 to be user-friendly. You could let a month lapse, have all your character options canceled, and during a future month only need to re-activate you character option(s), without the hassle of needing to re-activate your entire FINAL FANTASY XIV service account.

    I predicted this outcome back in September, so I'm personally not surprised.

    please explain, Im confused

    Pretty much this. Unless you were in so much rage over the games launch that you called and had your whole FFXIV account deleted, you would always be able to log in to the account management page even if you were'nt paying for any character options. Maybe thats not exactly how they view and active account, but it sounds feesable.

    And, maybe they just didn't send out all the e-mails yet.
