I did not even know about this game when it was released, but had I have known about it I 100% guarantee I would have been here from the off, could I get a retrospective founders title because I had not even heard of the game when players qualified for the title?

Here's the thing with these Exclusive sub rewards. It's basically a prize for staying loyal to SWTOR and paying your subscription (however you do it) to ensure there is more content in the future (whatever it may be) and to keep the servers running.

When you don't subscribe by a certain time that Bioware tells you you must be subbed by or on, you are 'punished'. Sure, you can play as free to play or preferred, but you're being punished by not being an actual every month subscriber for that prize.

Party Jawa was a prize for the loyal subscribers who stuck around and continued to subscribe when the game introduced free to play.

The Founder title was a prize for being one of the first subscribers and players during the early months of the game.

Nico was a prize for being a subscriber when KotFE was announced and people kept paying.

HK-55 was a prize for continuing to subscribe and support the game even when it isn't giving people every single thing they want content wise, like ops, etc.

The bonus chapter is a prize for being a subscriber from October? until August ? when you get it unlocked for being a loyal subscriber and paying every month.

I know, **** happens, things go belly up. But how exactly is it hard to keep a sub going? I've switched from one credit card to another to using time cards, etc to keep my sub going. Oh, I might not have enough cash in my debit account this month? Switch it to my credit card. Oh that credit card is getting close to being maxed? Switch it to another or buy a time card.

Due diligence. I always assume a reward will be coming. Plus, I'm not playing this game as preferred or free to play cause then I only get like 2 out of the 36+ characters I have I can play and I'd have to spend MORE money to unlock **** when I get that automatically just being a sub. Whether I pay $15 a month, $180 for 6 months, or pay for a full year, whatever.

Sometimes I can't play right away, cause I have work I have to go to. Sometimes I can play all day. To me, $15 a month is nothing, I spend more than that per week on diet coke and cigarettes for me and the hubby.
Bioware, please remember our companion spouses when doing new expansions. I want scenes, letters, or something from them, saying they're worried!

It makes NO difference how much Johnny is willing to pay to get X reward that was EXCLUSIVE to those players who met the criteria to receive that reward, if Johnny did not meet the criteria to obtain that reward. If Johnny did not meet the criteria, he should NOT EVER receive that EXCLUSIVE reward.
I don't really care about the exclusivity of it..... I care about making sure you pay what I paid. Folks are asking for it and if they are willing to pay let 'em. But as I have illustrated in my examples it is $15/month or whatever the monthly sub fee is. So Nico will cost roughly $180 USD

There will be no cost for Nico as Nico is EXCLUSIVE to those that were subscribed on one of the two appropriate dates. It should remain that way.

YOU may not care about the exclusivity of that particular reward, but many others DO care.

You need to chill the **** out.

You may be right, but your point goes down a ditch the moment you post with this rudeness.

I don't have a problem with not getting the perks if I'm not sub'd. I had to miss out on some due to RL issues and whilst it would be fun to have Nico, I'm perfectly fine with the reality of "not here? no Nico for you".
we had riots when they destroyed the CSM. you will get over your anger, they know that. You can tell them how upset you are at the next cantina event.

I'm...not upset.

I tried to make that pretty clear. A little wistful at missing out on him (only thing I think I have missed out on) but upset? Nah.

I guess I just don't understand the need people have to stop others from getting things. Or the need to comb through another player's thread history so you can creepily slander their intent. Or the need to type words in caps page after page, as if typing hard enough will make people who have different opinions go away. Anyway, sucks to immediately feel punished after subbing for the first time, and I think a dissenting viewpoint on exclusive content should be voiced, even if not acknowledged.

I guess I just don't understand the need people have to keep asking for stuff that was marked as exclusive when they didn't qualify for it. They are just skins. Skins given to us as thanks for our loyalty.

You weren't there. You didn't get it. Sorry. There'll be more stuff later, much of it will probably be damn near the same.

I guess you get stuff too.
