Please, start up the referral program ASAP. I have people waiting for invites to the game and many of them already downloaded the client.

    Thanks for the update, I've got people downloading the client and waiting to go. I wish I had realized it was so small though in terms of demo content, I'm really going to have to push this like a salesman to get people to buy it. :P

    It appears to be operational now, GM_Destra please can you tell us why we can only refer 5 people?

    I was under the impression that we would be able to refer as many people as we would choose to.

    Its only 5 at a time, as you send them you get more once they accept. So its not 5 ever..so much as only five to send at any one time.

    Well its up and running, I got my brother referred, and he used the retail key I bought him and even bought him a months subscription.. HOWEVER, I have only recieved the retail key referral bonuses so far, not the bonuses for his months subscription paid for.

    I should have gotten the Recruiter title, EMH boff and 400 cryptic points but havent got any of those.. any idea whats happening Destra?

    I ticketed it but, that was almost an hour ago and still waiting (and no I gm ticket'ed it not bug reported it)

    What if they never accept? How would I manage that?

    I have sent out my 5 invites to 5 of my friends who I think will have the greatest chance of giving STO a try and now all I can do is wait, while hoping that they all except the invites. :)

    /Fingers crossed

    Ahhhh, the stupid program gave so many problems earlier nobody has had a chance to play yet. Hopefully the 3 levels will be enough to sell them all on the game.

    sadly I am having huge issues with the referral system started a new thread about it Buddy programme Issues.

    saw your thread Demonsunder, but this thread is in regards to the items not being received when a referral upgrades with 1 month sub (ie: not getting the boff and second title with the points)

    i read your thread, and in cryptics defence, it did say on the refer a friend page (coming soon) under step 1, and we already knew the pre-order /special edition buddy keys wouldn't be tied to the program

    it also said now available at the top of the page, I though coming soon referred to the email link invitation, the other promotions are clear that they start on the 7th this one was not listed that way. It is very disappointing.

    Should be getting the title and tribble pet, but nothing. The Friend Referral Trial worked, but when he purchased the game, no tribble, title, or Warp to Buddy power. Also have offer cancelled for the status of My Account's referral section.

    For those that are concerned about their holographic BOff, wait a month. The free month has to run out before the subscription purchase goes through.

    Woohoo! 3/5 towards Galaxy-X with so many referrals still accepted and considering it. I'm going to be swimming in C-Store points and cruising in the Galaxy-X!

    Who wanted to join the Galaxy-X club?
