    I tried to link my accounts and all I get is an error.

    To hell with this. I will never link my lifetime STO or CO accounts and I will never spend another penny with Cryptic or PWE.

    Way to lose a loyal paying customer with this fiasco.

    i just did it, created a PWE account to merge the two.
    not because of the rewards (literally none of them are ANY use to me, barely good for EC either), i did it because the whole site is shoving the free zen survey in my face and i could use a little extra c-points. I tried to do it, but it says i have to have a level 10 character and one week since account creation to have access to it, even though i merged the pwe account with the cryptic account i had since STO open beta.

    Is that intentional? Will the survey thing be around a week from now, or is it deliberately just for old PWE players?

    I do not see where to link my accounts. Yes, I followed the instructions. I have a separate Cryptic and PWE account already, they just need to be merged.

    Wait the IG C-store does not have the gift?

    I know all my previous C-Store purchases are gone from the website. Hopefully I can still reclaim them IG.

    Once again, PW did something with obviously very little fore thought, and well, the results speak for themselves. I am not suprised, this kind of thing seems to happen a lot. Now our website and forums are as disfunctional as Perfect World...YEAH

    Wow... This came out of the proverbial black hole. Why was there no announcement regarding this switch?

    I think you owe us an apology for this abrupt and unwanted change.

    The old forums looked much better, and try logging into the new forums with an iPad, the virtual keyboard is infront of the login info, making it hard to see what you are typing.

    Not worth it. Now if it has been oh i don't know something worth it like a free ship etc maybe then...

    PS,
    I not only think you owe us a apology, but given the big inconvieniance you caused us, we should get something better than a crappy weapon, a little dilithium and some skill points I already have more of than I need. How about some content, oh I forgot, that might make some people happy, wouldn't want to do that:rolleyes:

    I think I linked my accounts a while ago, but I can't seem to remember when (either that or I have forgotten my cryptic account name and password).

    Who do I contact in order to get this checked out?

    When all this forum mess is done, I hope we get a little something ingame that says we survived a horrendous battle. Kinda like the Shaka badge.

    I'm thinking an eyepatch. :wink:

    Make that a dual eyepatch so we never see anything like this again.

    I'm picky on where I leave my personal info around the internet, my reasons for this are my own but my info should be mine to control. What assurances do I have that my personal info on my now defunct Cryptic account will be erased, I have not given permission for PWE to have any of my credit card info for example, and I DO NOT want that info passed on to them. (seems the link is a one way deal too so no going back)

    I did make the link when I got on line earlier today and after getting in game and clicking the buy CP button in the CStore regretted it.
    I dont want Zen and I dont want to need to have a calculator handy each time I purchase.

    This whole account linking and forum 'upgrade' (shudder) is farcical at best. The marketing guys that decided to roll with nah lets not tell the players, they will find out soon enough need a right kick up the backside with a simultaneous 'Gibbs Slap' upside the head.

    One pissed off player who will be going nowhere near buying Zen no matter what gets released to the store.

    Will have to say that I do not approve. Well, sort of.

    I can understand offering an incentive to convert accounts, or merge them. That's perfectly fine.

    The problem is... you've also locked off the forum, forcing anyone who wants to post in it to merge/convert their accounts. That... that is a big no-no. You should have just offered incentive, and allowed people to make the choice, rather than force the matter.

    I'm sure it's only a matter of time before the Star Trek Online Launcher forces people to convert their accounts before they login.

    Dislike all the Zen ads. I only play this game - no use for Zen - nor the survey ads. And depersonalizing the forums is a bad trick too.

    Please PW - why this all. And then so a bad quality! All is TRIBBLE. Have to reedit all UserCP settings. All posts and private messages lost. Irritation about what account to login in forum or game is still the lesser evil.

    But did you ever heard about ETL (Extract, Transform, Load) it's a process to merge the data. So please import my private messages. That can't be lost.

    I'am surprised because my profession is programmer in RIA. So what is exploded here. Shame! Did you need help with that? This is my serious!

    So far, I had a lot of praise for the webpage and the game. But this is a complete waste of effort. WHY???

    Looking forward you get all that fixed!

    80CP = $1
    100Zen = $1

    So you'll convert 100Zen to 80CP. Everything should cost the same. You'll just have to jump through more hoops. Which makes sense, because why should it be convenient for you to give them your money. You should have to work for it, no?

    My thoughts exactly. I'm not going to buy one virtual currency in order to buy another. It looks like I can still buy C-Points in game, but only through my Steam wallet, so at least that's something... I guess.

    "The account you are trying to link is already linked to a different account. If you feel you are receiving this in error, please contact customer service. "

    > clicking on the link, click on "Submit a ticket. Logging in with my PW account and bam >

    This web page has a redirect loop

    Unable to make a ticket as well. Fun stuff.

    So I'm unable to logon my cryptic account (on the website) so I'm unable to cancel my gold account. >.>

    There is a mismatch of account name and display name?!

    This is BS. I had different Cryptic and PW usernames. How the PW username is what was saved after I linked accounts. No one knows me bythis name...which could be good I suppose but its still idiotic.

    here's a brilliant idea. Since nobody can buy C-points or Zen... Add some Zen/Cpoints to that package so people can actually do something!

    The problem with the transfer of Zen over to STO C-points has now been fixed, PWE have added Holodeck in the Server selection step!

    I'd love to know this myself... You'd think 15 bucks a month is enough to pay someone to give me my unique user name back...
