Hate to bring this up again... BUT..

They have to tell you when to start feeling appreciated? Was it ever stated that there would be a big "the gift!" sign attached to it in the first place? They put in a version of a mount just for subscribers, and for a reduced price. It seemed to me that a lot of subscribers really liked that. I for one felt appreciated as a sub right there.

There is always a sense of "entitlement" (yes i used that word again, and know what it means). For people who pay to expect more than what others get simply because. When game was sub only everyone was equal everyone only demanded content and maybe some for the CE editions. Then when player base dropped off and went f2p the subs started to demand MORE for their sub simply because they subbed. Even though for them the game never changed and should be content playing as they were (outside the demand for new content an the CE). Fast forward and suddenly subs stuff doesn't stink, and what we DO get is NEVER good enough, it TAKES too LONG , is the wrong color, or is only available from the CM.

Ah...so your answer is no, you have no proof, you're guessing. I liked the sub version of the tauntaun too, I hope they do more of that stuff in the future! But they said they'd have a *gift*...did you get one for free or something? I thought the tauntaun was released to promote new mounts...

There may have been a "subscriber" tauntaun, but there was also a tauntaun for everyone else only difference was color.

Here is a suggestion for subscriber gifts: Why not have the gift be unique and only available to subs. This gift could not be obtained via cartel market, subs cannot trade but can vendor if they choose not to keep it, is not a re-skin of a discontinued item. Something that can be useful, unlike the fireworks. That way it shows that BW actually took some time and created a thoughtful gift.

A cartel coin gift is like buying a gift card for your secret santa party. It comes across as "Hey, I completely forgot about the gift so I just grabbed this while in the grocery store check out line." Granted, some people did enjoy the gift, but many others like myself were wondering ***.

I notice the word "entitled" getting thrown around a lot. The OP and many others are not acting entitled. Entitled is all these celebs that get away with murder and not get as much as a slap on the wrist. How long did Paris, Lindsey, Amanda... get away with DUI's, hitting paparazzo with their cars, flashing their cooters in public? Most of the griefers here are people who pay for a product and are displeased with some aspects and stating such. If anything, BW is acting more entitled than the forum users.

The problem they have with things like that is their trying not to make f2p players look like second class players meaning the chances of something like this happening are incredibly small. That being said it would be nice to stand out as a sub.

heh have you seen the F2P restrictions? I don't think that's remotely true :P

BW is already working on that. I know its small but soon F2P are going to be able to do unlimited WZ. Also with F2P the restrictions are there to help convince F2P to sub. Maybe a useful cool sub gift would help nudge F2P to sub, therefore bringing in more money.
