    What about players who don't use social media?

    I mean, guys like me who actually play the game instead of following the Twitbook junk are getting stiffed on this deal. Isn't this a sort of self-contradictory exercise?

    I mean, you are rewarding people for spending time on social media sites rather than for playing the game. The game which makes your company money and pays your salaries when people play it.

    It seems kind of counterintuitive to me.

    In this day and age, it's rare. I do know some people that don't, but then they complain they never know what is going on.

    You guys should do stuff like this where it doesn't require a facebook account.

    Just a friendly tip. ;)

    i never do, i dont use those social networking places for my own reasons, mostly security related and personal info. however the forums are all i need to know about information even if some of it comes later. so as far the legacy pack is concerned, i really dont care about PWEs attempt at playing the artificial popularity card and in return just 1 person gets the reward.

    Exactly that, you guys don't need to rant around, if you don't want to use social media, you may do that. But please keep your rant.

    Then don't give your real name...? It isn't forcing you to.

    You do know FB bans accounts made with fake names, right?

    And if the prize gets awarded to said fake-name account before the banhammer hits, you'd never be able to claim it because it's not in your name?

    Or is that too much logic for you to follow?

    Thanks but no thanks. I don't want that showing up in my friend feeds which is exactly what this is designed to do. Now if this were a permanent account unlock of the Season 5 test rewards you'd have me. :p

    Yeah because Facebook KNOWS that your real name is Steven Felan, not Jonathan Duke. Seriously, logical fallacies ftw. If the name still sounds like a plausible human being's name that isn't a celebrity or blatantly obvious like Jane Doe they're not going to ban it.

    Facebook has no way of knowing what your real name is. It is very easy to spoof their simple name filter to create an account.

    WOOHOO!!! Time to start making fake email accounts and see how many facebook and twitter accounts I can setup before this thing is done!

    Any chance you could offer a prize for the person with the most accounts who liked and followed your Facebook/Twitter accounts??? :D:D:D

    Lol, no. I won't take part in promoting something I DISlike, especially on social media.

    Unless there's some kind of "Say NO to Arc" page I don't know about. I may like that one, even without a giveaway.

    I'm kind of surprised this doesn't violate Facebook's TOS but, they are kind of nefarious anyway. Liking something for any other reason than 'liking' it is deceptive.

    Considering FB sells information, I doubt they care.

    Facebook is evil. I've been boycotting them for years ever since they stole my mom's personal information, and that time my brother got mailed death threats after "liking" the wrong person.

    Not even a controversial or nasty person. I mean, I would've understood if he'd "liked" Tymoshenko or Cameron or some politician, but just some random kid from his school. Weirdest damn thing.
