Buddy Key Exchange!

[Hamma]

Well first they said the 14th and then later on in another thread they kind backed off on that date so if I were a betting man I would say it won't be tomorrow

This program is still in the works, and we have not locked down an official launch date as of yet, but is something that we hope to have live in the next few months. As soon as the program goes live, we will send you a link to the website where new recruits will be able to sign up for the Cannon Fodder program.

Well after getting a mail from PSU i was trying to get the trial keys from my old account, but i get the message

"You currently do not have an active paying subscription for PlanetSide(tm). Click here to subscribe!"...

I think something went wrong and i allready contacted SOE about it. Ill send in my trial keys, when my old account iss activated for those 30 free days.

PS: Sorry for my crappy english

I would Donate mine if I had any left, already handed out all 10, sorry

[Hamma]

That's not a bad thing

I'm also getting "You currently do not have an active paying subscription for PlanetSide(tm). Click here to subscribe!". This is after reseting my station username & password, logging in again and checking to see that the 30 day trial for planetside is indeed enabled.

Looks like the station functionality to enable non monthly subscribers to request keys has broken/been disabled/never worked.

Shame, you'd have been more than welcome to them all

[Hamma]

Doh Well thanks for trying

[Blastrogath]

my demo key seems to be working (thanks elana) but the client says it'll take 8 hours to update. I'll see some of you on Markov this evening hopefully.

(It's not my connection either, I've got 5Mb down/512Kb up cable)

[Hamma]

The timer will go down - it acts rather strange at times.

Good luck in the game!

I recognize your good intentions Hamma, but I hope everyone who donated realizes that SOE holds the account that generated a Buddy Key responsible for any actions that buddy key takes.

In short, if some fucktard uses your key and causes a bunch of trouble, it's on you.

[Ghryphen]

I have never heard of such a thing. I believe that they actually hold the person being a fucktard responsible and take actions against that particular key. I am open to proof otherwise that this is true however.

[Hamma]

I highly doubt that is the case in fact I'm sure I would have been advised of that when I notified SOE that we started this project.

And besides that point most of the people who are getting keys really do want to try the game, and not be asshats to everyone around them.

You should look into it then. I seem to recall it being stated before, and it's the Customer Service Department that will have the answer, not the Developers.

It would be a shame to see this feature bite anyone in the ass.

[Ghryphen]

I can assure you that there was adequate communication with the proper people.

[EVILPIG]

Ok, I confirmed it with DanB that this is NOT the policy. Seems the voices in my head are talking to me again.

Punishing the account that generated the key is NOT SOE's policy.

[Hamma]

We checked into it about a week before launching. I have not seen any other official statement as to something like this - and nobody has been "bit in the ass" yet and we have given away well over 200 keys.

Edit: next time new post not edit 30 mins later
