So how do you earn the “Founder” title? This reward is only available to players who have completed either one of the following transactions (by March 19th, 2012):

Billed at least once for an active Star Wars: The Old Republic subscription
OR

Redeemed a Star Wars: The Old Republic Pre-Paid Game Time Code

Once you become eligible for the title and have surpassed your 30 days of game time included with your official Game Product Registration Code, you will be notified by email.
Good to "force" people to subscribe at least one month past the "free" betatest first month, and be able to boast about increasing subscriptions after that (cause people wanna feel special)

Bad for people smart enough to leave and unsub for the time being and hoped to hop in back in 6 months (maybe) to see if they can make viable their purchaded game (or not)

How about no?

Of course a badge will keep everyone in game over sorting out the servers and creating a proper MMO enviroment to support a good vibrant population.

I dunno maybe the guy who came up with it was the one who designed the MMO framework.

Meh weill regulate this a bit...
Thoughts
1)Thanks for the thought....
2) Im impressed of the speed bugs are fixed
3) The game had potential.

HOWEVER
1)Why would anyone care about a title enough o re0sub?
2)This does feel a little insulting on our intelligence...obvious attraction deal is crap.

NO other MMO has done this sort of thing and is still around.

I new the game was going to fail, which is a great shame as i enjoyed it but...rather than attract more people to resub i am sorry to say this will most likely encourage people to un-sub, would of been better to just leave it out.

Just a question...has WoW ever done this? No?
No, at least, YOU KNOW when you purchase a vanity pet/mount (that everyone on your server is gonna show off the next day) that it's a buy-to buy material, not a disguised maneuver to trick people into staying sub
