While we agree on many things on this point I have to disagree with you. In a situation like we have now no one wins. In fact, ultimately, I think we lose to be frank.
The official response is a token gesture at best and kind of irks me. Shoot I'm still considering sending out some more emails to various news and consumer sites. So who knows maybe the tempo of this situation is only going to increase...
Yup, they stuffed us into a single thread and went all China/Soviet Russia on any dissenting opinion.
They kept this thread open so they could curbstomp all opposition, and then proceeded to ignore anything that happened inside it
Anyways, time to turn in for the night. I dunno, I still like to play the game, I still like to give people and businesses the benefit of the doubt, I still like to strive to solve problems rather than create them, I still prefer not to hold a grudge.
How is it that principles of good are seen as so bad sometimes? Why is it that some people hate a hopeful outlook, or a positive point of view? Why is is that some poeple prefer lose-lose to win-win?
How is it that we waste so much time on the problem and no time on the solution, prefering to use anger and hate instead of reasoning and problem solving?
Finding a problem . . . . is the first half.
The second half is solving it.
To waste so much time on the first half, never to reach the second . . .
This is silly. We complained, they apologized, and took down the deal. What more do we want?
I for one applaud the fact that they responded directly to us. The game has some issues but thats food for another thread. Surprised to see this one still going. And I supported those that were upset.
Those still on here saying noone had anything to complain about ever are just as bad too. The issue is done.
Lets go back to talking about content and DPs.....

good night, and good grief.
i tend not to put stock in a company that wont honor their own promotions the next day after they post it
i think they didn't unspill it as much as spill more. I mean they took down the promo and then anyone who took it are told "nope, never happened"
Yea THATS the ticker. Is that actually true though? Ive only heard of one account of that happening.
I mean, all this is pretty unbelievable but it happened. But THAT? Not at least giving the deal to those that took it? Isnt that just......out right illegal?
Despite ALL this I cant believe they would do that. Seriously.
Basically what Im saying is I somewhat doubt the legitimacy of that claim.

i got a picture of the email right in my sig, go look
We won the war with SOE too, over the NGE. Look at SWG today, it's a ruin that isn't even a skeleton of the shadow of the success Pre-NGE was. It's destined to be shut down when TOR releases, if not sooner. SOE has a reputation so bad that radioactive nuclear waste will sue you for slander if you compare it to SOE. Yet we still don't have our game anymore.
Pyrrhic Victory.
Aye...
At least this isn't a complete ruining of the game like SWG, just a PR blunder... they could still change course to make it right. Though with the denials of the 60 free days floatjing around... hoo boy.

Seriously all this may eventually pass over if they can keep the game alive that long. Just a few months.
And if ATARI can you know......NOT TRIBBLE ANYTHING ELSE UP......the game might not fail completely and utterly.
Please everyone email dell for me and force them to give me a price cut too !!!
PWWWEEEEAASSSEEE !!!
If you return to the store they will probably give you the difference on the sale if you want.
Also, as far as this goes, you obviously dont even understand the issue. Its not about the price reduction. But thanks for trying to add to a point you obviously know nothing about. It was a nice try if nothing else.

Your lack of understanding on this matter is duly noted. Thank you for taking the time to make a concise post that clearly shows you have absolutely no clue what this entire issue is about.

Actually I had something similar happen to me (for real, not conjecture like the quote above). I bought a computer from Dell, and a few days later, I saw the same computer with a free monitor upgrade. I talked with Dell customer Service and they swapped out monitors when mine arrived.
So yeah, you can get specials that you missed out on applied to you. All you have to do is ask.

Thats not a win for us

There are many fights, I just gave up the one hoping to get free 60 days worth of played time.
Though the fight to make the game hold up to its promise is far more exhausting imo.
You can't unspill the milk.
or the stuff going on the Atari symbol
Yeah, ask Zodi that one lol

Because the review would be awesome

more like this, they offer it with a 3 year warenty, but then say "sorry only 1 year" and deny ever selling it at 3 years
