The Op has a valid question. Though it could have been asked a bit more respectfully 3 pages of "Q Q more OP!" is equally rude. Yes I know your tired of people whining about not getting in but it's not a excuse to put your troll hat on.

To the OP:
If it makes you feel better 7 yrs on ffxi didn't get me a beta or alpha into this game when it came out. I was a bit upset when it seemed my friends in xi who logged on once every 6 months seemed to get invited and I didn't but what happened is I "played" this game and all those XI friends who tried the alpha and beta were so turned off by them they wouldn't give it a chance when it came out. So maybe, I was the lucky one.

Second side note

I do feel its dumb to give betas to quit players vs actives if that's true. The majority of unactives I know not only didn't want to play anymore they wanted to play something else. F- their invites, they can stay where ever they ended up imo.
