_Ender__Wiggin_ Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 I mean it's not really that big of a deal. It's some silly vanity thing they added. A lot of the rage in this thread seems misplaced. No, the rage is legit and here's a little chestnut for you: It has nothing to do with the medal and the title. People are just desperate for an outlet to be heard, and since it's an "official" thread, this is that outlet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DirtyDozen Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 There is zero flexibility in when they could offer it. It has to be before the 20th or it serves no purpose. Yeah but that's logic. Let the haters have their circle jerk for another few hours (for most of them anyway). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Syphrus Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 Nobody's gonna use this title until like 4 years later when there's been 2 or more expansions to swtor. I can't wait till then so I can go up to some noob and say "oh yeah I was here since the beta. Sup." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RealAeiouy Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 Quitters be mad Resub, you know you wanta. The problem is most quitters even quit on quitting. So they will still be "quitting" a week from now Founder! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zezel Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 How about for people who cancel within their thirty days but later resubscribe the title of "Baby" or "Crybaby Peepants" and make it auto selected Good call and those that stick past the 1st 30 days a "Fanboy" title to go along with "Flygirl" one.

MrVayne Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 So my reward for subscribing from day 1 is going to be... a title I'll never use because I'd rather have something relevant to what my character has actually done, and a medal that will permanently clog up the bank of each of my characters. Yay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damarog Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 How about for people who cancel within their thirty days but later resubscribe the title of "Baby" or "Crybaby Peepants" and make it auto selected Good idea, have them insult their PAYING customers.

Auxili Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 Absolutely pathetic. This is how EA does things, Bioware. I guess you've really become one in the same. See, players want you to fix the game. Not inventivize us to play a game you don't listen to feedback about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ParanoidHobo Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 Does Bioware not know the people of the internets are run by hats?!?! I would actually have resubbed if it was a hat instead since I do plan to come back at some point(well, unless D3 is out before Legacy is). Titles are just meh though.

Kashley Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 Yep they have removed the ability to cancel subscriptions. I knew they were bleeding subs, but I didn't realize it was this bad. Now this medal thing post 1.1 debacle. Not looking good for this game. See you guys on GW2? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meithar Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 Digression I was a Founder in LOTRO. True is, that reward keeps me playing it from time to time if I want a change. But it was $199 lifetime membership. It paid off after a year and a half, and though LOTRO is F2P, the VIP status is still nice /grin We need better incentives that the medal /grin Yeah the Lotro founder incentive was a lot better. I would be hyped for a lifetime membership option for SWTOR. I had to cancel my sub here cause my account was set to renew one day before I get paid this week and I dont have the money at the moment. I will be resubbing Friday morning though, so I should still get the title as hollow a reward as it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TehIdiot Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 (edited) This entire thread can be summed up with an analogy (cause I like analogies) D-Bag boyfriend repeatedly beats his girlfriend, and as she is leaving he screams "baby please don't leave, will you marry me?"

Supercaptain Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 The general forums of every MMO is filled with children that complain about everything. Seriously, BW could send them all bricks of gold and they would complain that gold is too heavy. They irrevocably ruin the PvP scene in this game and then a few hours after saying they aren't going to fix it, come out and hand gold stars out to everyone. You don't understand the absurdity of this? Even if this was pre-planned it's moronic to pull it out now given how awfully they ****ed up. It just looks like a bribe.

Astron_ Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 (edited) I know they're frantically trying to patch together all the flaws in this game before all of us are gone, but THIS is beyond pathetic.

Bioware is just doing whatever they want, not admitting that their PVP team has screwed up every game they've touched.
