Founder Title

The title is pretty meaningless now, however, if you and/or the game is still around in 2-3 years, most of the people poo pooing it here will be wearing it with a little more pride.

So, it's free, so I'm not allowed to say it's useless? I don't care either way. But, I will say that WOW giving me a free mount to sign up for a year (big mistake now) was enticing enough for me to do it. So, a better gift might have gained them more resubs because people that are planning to "come back in a few months" very well may have stayed if they knew they'd be missing out on something nice. Free or not, a "founder" title that no one will use because every class gets better titles is pretty useless.

Oh, dude, cry me a river. People were screaming for beta invites. These boards were almost nothing but QQ over "this other guy got a beta invite and I didn't!" for months before this game launched.

Don't even try not make people feel sorry for you because you got a beta invite.

When people talk about "entitlement issues," that's the kind of thing they're talking about. Honestly, "Feel bad for us beta-testers. We got something for free that hundreds of thousands of people wanted, and now Bioware isn't giving us more free stuff for accepting it?" That's a little sad.

I will wear it, and in a few months when I start seeing posts about how it's not fair that the title isn't available to people anymore and how it creates a divided have and have not player base...I will simply laugh, grin and shake my head about how silly people are on the internet.

The title was a nice gesture, display it or dont. If your that upset go back to your "Jenkins" title. The world is really full of whiners, geeze!!

yeh not caring for foudner title at all , but i gues if you do , swell

also how it displays .. i rather have Darth Peter Pan then Peter Founder Pan lol

and no my name ingame isnt peter pan just making example ;P

would be nice if the yadded more founder things maybe later , like a unique founder Vehicle
or Founder Social gear set or hell anything else ><

Well, this thread confirms it. People WILL whine about anything.

You're assuming the point of this -was- to increase resubs, and then argue that it's a terrible way to do it.

You're right. Offering people a title -would- be a terrible way to get people to resub. No one is going to keep playing a game because of a title, no matter how cool the title is. Which is why it should be obvious that this wasn't a retention scheme in the first place.

It's simply a "thank you" gift for those who took the plunge to buy the game early, rather than waiting for the bugs to be ironed out. Nothing more, nothing less. If you seriously think Bioware is planning on getting something in return for this... I don't know what to tell you, man.

Yep. They could have given us...something. Although I think working knowledge of the game was enough- mere personal opinion there. Certainly more valuable than the Founder title (which is sitting in my mail too as of a few hours ago, it seems); not knocking it, though, the title. Gift horses and all that.

my title is active. i dunno why i see post in here pulling out the quote

"it may take 7 days" perhaps that suits the trolls agenda.
