You really can't be this pig-headed, can you? Do you even know what you just suggested?

The promotion was up for MONTHS. Click, read, decide. Promotions usually have a time frame, do this- get that. This one was a very very long promotion.

I chose to buy GWEN online. I would've rather have the BOX, but I wanted the BMP. I made a choice, and now, I have my BMP and no GWEN Box. Plus, when I made that choice, I had no idea what I was really going to get, if the whole deal was worth me not having a GWEN box. I took a risk, went for the promotion in a timely fashion, and I'm happy I did.

If you chose NOT to meet the terms of the promotion, well that was your choice.

If you missed the promotion ( because you missed the link that was on your log in screen for months), then you missed it. In real life, I can't go to a store and say, " I want in on the promotion you ran last month, what you gave away was really cool".

If you don't have a credit card, ask somebody to buy it for you and pay them back? I mean, what would you do if you wanted to buy something in Amazon because they were giving away something cool and you don't have a credit card? if you come up with an answer, the I guess you should've done the same.

If they were to make this available a different way, then I would also like the option of buying it THAT way, get a refund for the 2 Gwen copies I bought, and go to any retail store so I can add that GWEN Box to my collection.

A perfect example of the kind of people A.net gave the possibility to show the world their immense stupidity with this decision.

There are a lot more in this game, as soon as they're given the occasion they never miss it to show up.

Sorry to burst your bubble, but if Anet decides to sell the BMP at a later date, they are free to do so. Your recourse is to quit GW.

study corprate law, example, the end or supersized meals from McDonalds, thank you healthy people. Hell I could name thousands of other examples, but don't have time to do so.

Like I said before, if they reoffer it if you buy $30 dollars worth of merchandice on the store again like before, then I am ok with it, but to just sell it is kind of unfair to all the loyal customers who sacrficed buying a boxed copy of a game, which saved money for Anet and helped the envirorment, to offer it for sale, that is a big stab in the back, IMO

I guess that's your way of bowing out "gracefully". Don't worry, I wont press the subject anymore. Your ego obviously can't take it.

/signed.

I have too many friends who were given an error code when they attempted to buy EoTN through the online store. As a result, they were unable to purchase ANYTHING and receive access to the BMP.

Personally, I would've been more than happy to have purchased a "special edition" of EoTN that included the BMP for about $5-$10 more at a store. That would have allowed those who do not own credit cards (myself included-and its for various reasons, one being the principle, don't use money you don't really have) and those who couldn't access the online store due to the error codes they received.

~edit~
Yes, I have the BMP. I have a pre-paid credit card that I use for online purchases. I have to budget in the money for anything I do use it for, just as if I were using cash. If I don't have the cash, I can't buy it.
And as far as I know, pre-paid credit cards require that you be 18 yrs old to use them, just as any other credit card. Visa/MC gift cards are another story. But again, you need the cash for them.
The above still doesn't take into account those who cannot use the online store due to errors on Anet's part.

you have that backward.

note all the threads yelling i should have it popped up after those screenshots were posted.

the posters about the BMP except for literally a handful of posts are all centered on the weapon skins not the missions.

it is the want to be an epeener who is yelling

it is the i thought it would be crap and didnt waste my money now i want it

it is the i will laugh at you when it comes out and you are not happy with it.

the wanna be epeener is yelling not the mission player

The problem is that Gaile Gray told us that the collector boni will never be availble on the ingame store, so I suppose that the BMP, which can be seen as "collector" material, will follow that path. That being said, I'm against that way of thinking, but I'm not megalomaniac enough to think that my opinion matters much to anet.

notice there is playable content and visual content

playable content = prophecies, sorrows furnace, factions, nightfall, gwen, BMP (missions & quests - this is important)

visual content = coke items, preorder/prelease items, hats, collector aura, extra dances etc (all this additional stuff - this is not important)

btw. i hope my opinion matters something to anet, becouse i can put them 'out of business' by not buying GW2
