The only reason either of them is worth anything is the limited edition tag. If they where always on tap they would be worth 60-80m. The only value the old version is going to have to anyone will be as a cheaper way to unlock some hanger pets for the jem carrier. While the promo is on I'm sure most people will dump any of…

In the time saved you could run a second or third alt though and make even more.
-
His point is valid... if all you want to do is run though 10 toons and get it done to collect a shard... why bother with advanced. And we all know its advanced that is bugged... cause Cryptic still down't have the map auto warp people out when they fail.... and when they do there to stupid to warp out.
-
No one wants it... its junk. People will spend money on it though cause it will be one of the few ships you know will not be always on tap. People are predictable, slap limited edition on anything and people pony up. Still hard to swallow the deceptive advertising practices.

Statutes Statues, potato potato. lmao woops

You think changing it now matters ? Really ? The point is you could have changed it the moment you decided T5-U was what it was getting. Which clearly happened before the promo ended... and while the promo page with the t6 info still a front page item. There where also threads like this one on the forums at the time....…

Don't disagree its a terrible model. Either go F2P or don't, can't argue that. Just saying as long as you accept its a Sub only game you can have fun in TOR. I mean its not like blizzard will let you keep logging in if you fall on hard times. I guess I'm saying blame EA and there TRIBBLE model... not Bio and there half…
-
You made the mistake of thinking tor was a f2p game. TRIBBLE advertising I agree... when you accept that TOR isn't a F2P game and just sub... its fine. Cryptic will let you play for free if you don't mind playing 8 hours a day. So who is nickle and diming who. As far as Dev PR spinning... come on this thread is silly... we…
-
Not sure who DE is... Netmarble Really lol you have chosen to compare them to a silly South Korean only free web junk game maker. Even with bar set that low you think there only 4th from the bottom. :) lol Bioware/EA isn't worse then Cryptic... I mean lets be honest there game may not have the most open F2P. However they…

Exactly why I choose it... if you purchased a computer today, expecting that to be the case. Then 3-4 months from now you found out your new machine wasn't going to be upgraded, and more then that couldn't be. You would lump it right. Or would you get in on the class action suit... like the Windows Vista people did back in…

From the Vista Wiki page; "Two consumers sued Microsoft in United States federal court alleging the "Windows Vista Capable" marketing campaign was a bait and switch tactic as some computers originally installed with Windows XP could only run Vista Basic, and in some cases they did not run even Vista Basic at a…

Well I'm Canadian and our laws are different here. To be honest I don't know how much traction you could really get outside of a small claims court. At that point it would really come down to the judge. Yes they are imo at fault according to Canadian law... could I present it in a way a judge who wouldn't want me taking up…

So if you went into a store... and bought a new laptop with windows 8 on it that had a sticker on it that said. "Free Upgrade - Windows 10 Capable". Then 3 months later when the next windows came out you found out your machine was not only ineligible, but also unable to be upgraded. When you went back to the store they…

No internet companies follow the same laws any anyone else selling or leasing anything else. I detailed the California laws they could be tasked on earlier... I'm not supposed to talk about it when they talk to us about it... however I will refrain from reposting it as it might be considered spamming I understand now. The…

They could have went back and edited the promo page... they choose not to as they where detailing T6 in blogs before the promo ended, and new it would impact there sales. So they choose to not edit the promo page that clearly has misleading information on it. Its a text book case of false advertising, they clearly had a…
-
The point is ... they made a point of saying Lockbox ships where upgrading to T5-U. They made a point of saying the JHAS was upgrading to T6 Capabilities. Yes we all know they added the "capabilities " tag so they could be weasley. I would dare say very few where fooled. I'm sure some where indeed fooled into paying more…
-
Exactly... I thought for a split second about linking that. To good. lol

When the majority stops standing up for the minority, you should know what happens. If you don't I urge you to get yourself into a few good history lessons. If your in High school engage your teachers, if your in Collage/University your professors. If your in neither you can sit in on some really great classes free of…

The line must be drawn somewhere. My point was its not any of our places to draw a line anywhere. Freedom for all or freedom for none. It reminds me of a great quote from Larry Flynt, "You know, everybody believes in free speech until you start questioning them about it." You either stand for free speech which means, you…
-
Indeed... T6 capabilities it would seem means T5-U. Had they said T5-U in that advert, they would have sold fewer ships. By giving the bug ship upgrade a different title, and not following though. They are guilty of false advertising... and are legally liable under bait and switch laws. The only thing that would change…
-
This time they have clearly tried to legally protect themselves. In another statue it it mentions a time frame loophole for false advertising... to the effect that if I place an add claiming a bunch of BS, and then sell the product down the road I can't be help accountable for the BS I stated more then 3 months prior. So I…
-
So please explain how "T6 Capabilities" is different from "t5-u" Seeing as the only time they ever used the term "T6 Capabilities" was when they had a previous r&d Promotion going on... one where people where saying, WHY bother trying to get a Bug ship with T6 coming. Which prompted them to add the T6 Capabilities line...…
-
Well if you feel that way, all that matters is what Cryptic thinks. They have made themselves clear. We are not allowed to sell in game items or currency. As for everything else as long as we are not doing things that would be illegal in the real world such as threatening lives... or perpetuating hate speech. We are free…
-
No doubt... and to be fair it is the same here... I will admit I may have helped a few slime ball construction companies get out of some junk they shouldn't have. Even in Canada the laws aren't perfect... and like everywhere most legal reps don't do the proper research. Its always a case of the side that prepares best.…

17502 does not protect an online seller... what it says is if a company places an ad on the radio/tv/internet ect... the radio/tv/internet company is not liable. So in other words if you advertise something in the newspaper I can't sue the Newspaper if the ad is found to break any of the rules... unless the newspaper was…
-
No there isn't... if it is a zen store ship that you purchased, you can reclaim it. Lockbox / fleet / ship yard purchases / or event ships would be lost.
-
Understandable. Of course when people use those terms they are often referencing something akin to the gov systems you are talking about. So I do understand your point completely. Just felt I had to point it out Socialism works when its done right, countries like mine prove that is true. You can have a free society that…
-
I can tell you they would loose in a Canadian court. I will admit to not being versed in US law. Reading though that California statue, I would say it is pretty vague. The law in CA does seem to be terribly in slimy companies favor no doubt there. They also may be protected by some of the clauses that seem to state a time…

You could also mail the item to them. Or swap it though a Fleet bank if your in the same fleet and you both have rights to deposit and withdraw.
-
Of course you are right to point out the silly and stupid nature of the comment you are responding to. I just felt I had to point out however being from a country that leans socialist. Stating Marxism and Socialism as the precursors to Stalins verison of Communism... is like Saying Democracy and the Republic was the…
