I didn't bother reading the thread as the title said it was a petition. Usually people only sign petitions and it would appear this thread is an all out war.

That, and the people that are so proud because they own a cc, just made me laugh so hard

Regarding the BMP subject again, no it shouldn't be sold separate, either add the BMP to the online store has a bonus for x amount spend again or simply release it free in a few months.

If A.net wants my money, and that of other buyers, they know what they need to do. And soon. If they do it too late, well it's possible I'll keep my money and thxbye.
those idiots as you like to call them are currently enjoying their Bonus Mission Pack..well you sulk and sit back waiting for Anet to change there mind and take your money..if you wanted BMP then you should of done something in 4 months to get it..if you didnt want to be an idiot then dont whine about it now...

but if they release it free then it wouldn't be fair on the people who spent the money because it was "LIMITED"

and this thread isn't a flame war or anything there's no personal jabs or name calling people are just stating their strong opinions on the BMP promotion

Your moronic faults because you didn't go get a prepaid credit card with enough cash on it to buy GW:EN for the pack so stop complaining already. It is your fault you don't have it and I hope the people that are complaining that they don't have it don't get it.

Would have got it, if there was something in the shop worth buying. But as it was, it wasn't worth buying two character slots that I didn't need, when they wouldn't even really tell us what was in the pack.

I couldn't buy EotN from the in-game store because the lineage II beta somehow bugged my playNC account (happened to quite a few people apparently, but playNC denies it) to deny any credit card number I enter, and their tech support refused to help me so I was forced to buy the game in a store. Now I find out that the stupid promotion was the only way to get the BMP, and even if I waste all the time it will take to get this stupid bugged account crap fixed (playNC insist the credit/debit cards I've tried are bad, and wants me to get my bank to contact them, while denying any possiblity of the lineage II beta bugging my account even though I have found forums full of people with the same problem and the first 2 people I contacted in tech support said that was the problem) I won't be able to buy it anyways!

Anet was clear from the very beginning. This was a bonus to promote purchases from the on line store. All anyone had to do was buy GW:EN online and they'd qualify. I'm sorry for those who were unable to for various reasons, but everytime I don't qualify for this promotion from company A or that promotion from company B I shrug it off. It's just real life people.

yes anet could of hadled this better i must state that!

there should have been more payment options, more stuff worth buying in the online store and the stuff that is there is a little over priced anyway (since we got GW,EN for £15.99 in our local gamestation where it is £24.99 in the online store)

but what is done is done and unless they are going to offer something as compensation to those that spent the money to qualify then i just don't think it should be offered separately

"....Not every country has prepaid credit cards...

Please, in those countries how do you manage to play GW?
Do they have providers? Do you need batteries in order to use your PC?

It was a free bonus, you just had to comply with Anet's contracts which ended the 31st of October 1987.

Try to be WISE next time ok?

*sigh* I really feel uneasy if Anet starts selling content at the store.

The GOTY update is different since the GOTY edition is the new "V2" of Prophecies, since they stopped producing the original version and it makes it not exclusive.

Granted the BMP can only be gained at the store, it is not for sale. It was free bonus. A limited time offer. A reward for customers being at the right place and the right time.

It strikes me as odd that people without the means of a credit card, or those who had the desire to own the box are moronic or stupid. I appreciate that it was a promotion for the online store, but i can't understand why those people who were able to buy online appear to not want this available for the masses.

In my opinion you didn't pay for the BMP, you paid for GW:EN (or extra character slots, game of the year edition, etc). I also paid for GW:EN but in a shop. That doesn't mean i'm any less devoted to GW because i didn't run to daddy asking for his credit card. This whole thing is a farse. Through what ever means we have all payed for the game. We should all be entitiled to all of the game content.

Yes, they should probably sell it in the store for $10. What's annoying though is I bet many people just planned to whine for it if it was good and therefore not have to waste money on GW:EN. They were pretty smart I guess.

1) give BMP free to anyone who buy items from online store for 26euro or more (the same promotion but without time limit)

2) sell it in online store (9euro just like all other unlock packs or 17euro like pvp access kit) [you can limit the sell only for those who bought all chapters]

And guess what you need to buy them online?

I don't think they should have ended the promotion, I still need tog et it (well can't now ) If they just added it as a continuous promotion, spend €15 in teh store, get the bonus easy.
