SE is always SE... Rage inside... :/

Better than attempting to explain how SE violated their own NDA rules.

The selection process is not part of the NDA. There are other reasons they won't disclose it. Community problems, persuing those that were selected, demanding the point of the questions in their application. ..

What are you even looking for in this thread? They wont disclose how they selected the testers. Asking who are the testing would be just as pointless and a real violation of the NDA.

What is the point of this discussion?

The selection process is not part of the NDA.

They changed their own rules for selection. They decided to go for something other than what was laid out in the rules and even though they can do whatever the hell they want with their test, this leaves much to be desired about them. You would expect a bit of congruity and consistency here.

You are lying, SE never disclosed their criteria for selecting applicants. Who and how they choose to be their test monkeys is not our affair any more than why they don't hire Reinheart.

You are lying

I stand by what I said. You misrepresented my position.

You claim they went against their rules of selection when you don't know what they are, as they have not released their rules for selection and stated that they will not answer any questions pertaining to their rules of selection.

What criteria of selection that they established and stated will not divulge did they violate?

I'm talking about the VERY FIRST requirement stated on the alpha test application site. It has been linked now too many times.

I'm simply pointing out that SE changed their minds by admitting non-active accounts. Heck, those people would have realized they weren't eligible just by reading the disclaimer, but applied regardless (well played gentleman).

Nope, totally independent of the selection process. The website managed which accounts were and were not able to start applying, demonstrated here:

Weird because It would not let me apply to the alpha the first time because my FFXIV account was inactive(I had played before but stopped playing). I then repaid for the service and then was able to send in an application to the alpha, weird.
