Dat 1017 error. I'm fairly certain that by this time Thursday, if this problem persists, SE will have single-handedly lost about 60% of the NA populations' confidence in this game. I can't count on two hands how many of my RL friends who were interested in this game have already decided against playing this game.

To anyone who defends SE on the issue that this thread was made for: We paid for a product and we have not received a working version of that product. Furthermore, we have not been informed of why this product isn't working properly and have not received a definitive answer on when it will be fixed. Basically, it's like buying a car and then receiving it without wheels. Who wants that?

The downside to all these posts in Tech. Support/General Discussion is: None of them will be read and all of our cries will fall on deaf ears and blind eyes. Good riddance SE, for you have ceased to please the majority of your consumers.
