This thread has been a souring of what has been an otherwise wonderful experience. Its basically everyone just being introverted assholes to each other and its painfully annoying . I really cant believe a mod of the website has not locked this nonsense yet.

And they think free time is a good apology. People at my work would get fired for messing up this badly.
We should start a game, name it something cool and hype it up, then after everyone pays and at release, say all the servers are down and roll in the cash. THEN we can start developing the game, once everyone has given us the cash to do so.
Frankly, the level of entitlement in this post is outright laughable. "Idling and staying logged in seems like the best course to take to make things easiest on ourselves." Really? Here, let's do some math. First we're going to assume you actually care about being a decent human being and helping out others. So you can stay logged in for 36 hours straight and hog it all to yourself, but like I said, we're pretending you give a shit about your fellow human. If the average casual player plays roughly 2 hours and then logs out, you could potentially cycle in 18 other players within the time you're sitting on your ass watching Netflix. Now, I know there's a distinct possibility that you'll let in another person like you who idles for days at a time, but the potential is there to give a great deal of people a chance to play.Â
Moving on, we'll get to your jab at SE for daring to "think free time is a good apology". It's free time. That's time where they let you play the game for free. How are you complaining? I guarantee if they gave you nothing you would still play, because you're still interested enough to post on these forums. The correct response to this "insult" is "Thank you, Square Enix."
The last paragraph, I considered not addressing because I honestly thought you might be trolling by this point. Yes, I'm sure Square's plan was to crash the servers so they could roll in the cash. It was a big conspiracy and we all fell for it. They're sitting back in their offices right now laughing and smoking cigars and curling their villainous mustaches. Grow up. They're more stressed out about this than we are. We might not be able to play a game, but their careers are on the line. Also once again, extended free time =/= rolling in the cash.Â
Is there any other ridiculous statement you'd like to make or are you done?
