I understand your frustrations, I'd be furious too. However, I just wanted to remind you that the Dev Team isn't the ones responsible for the shipping delay. Don't take it out on them.
I know what your saying, however, we aren't complaining to the Devs about the delay, we understand it isn't there fault. What they can do something about though, is stopping JTLS on the European servers until the expansion is actually released.

Its looking like none of the import orders have actually shipped yet (I know mine hasnt) - see the gamestop thread
hate to burst your bubble here but in my past experiences with ordering expansion packs direct from the states for delivery into europe ive never got the game earlier than 7 days after the official release date. the worst experience i had was probably UO:AoS which i eventually got 16 days after the release date...this was a pre order from gamestop and it eventually cost me over 90USD with the added taxes and admin costs. they usually ship euro orders 4 or 5 days after the release date and in the above case i tracked my order zig-zagging its way around the states for over a week before they even got it into the UK. Also, anyone who has actually played UO:AoS will tell you that it wasnt worth 90c let alone $90.

We don't dislike the Americans, don't worry. Most of us are happy you are getting it early and are enjoying it. But we're just afraid this majorly screws European shipwrights, and I have already seen the first person shouting "LOLZ U STUPID EUROPEANS WE US PPL ALREADY GOT IT LOLZ BECAUSE WE OWN U AND OUR MILITARY IS BIGGER TOO AND I THINK WERE RICHER TOO".
Seriously, exact quote.
How I despise "1337" 's and their ilk. Dirty trolls.
I just want to make sure that everyone understands that this isn't up to TH and the Dev team. As a beta tester I learned that they actually do care how the player base feels about the game and I know that they want everyone to enjoy it. Who is the distributor to the UK? I thought read somewhere that it as Activision... if so then it is their bad.

urm so a week yeah, came out what yesterday over there in usa...so next tuesday will be fine! well not fine..but as much as I could possible do quick enough when we all heard about the 5th release date..which I may add most of us do leanr about...um yesterday...
A WEEK ONFRIDAY is what we were trying to aviod as much as possible. Not alot of time before granted but i'd be glad of any time I can get at the moment beforea week onfriday to be honest.
"yes mister 1 star bandit please piss off"...
Save your yank elitist terms thank you. It's no mystery you yanks have more "stars" you always have the game to talk about longer anyway, and this means your starts mean nothing than you live in america when it comes down to it..well pardon me for not being envious there.....keep your stars..you're welcome to them!

Jeez! Guys, It's a week. Surely we can wait a sodding week. Read a book, take up gardening, watch all the Rocky films. There's plenty of ways to spend a week.
Plus it means we'll start complaining about it a week later than the yanks.

Yea very smart 
Change so the players from Germany etc that already have it (some of them do) cant play until you in UK gets it... It is the same for me in Sweden I dont know when it is gonna be released but I hope that it is the 29th but I dont want them to "cancel JTL" on the Europe servers until the 5 November, things like this happened, just face it, nothing we can do now when some of the ppl in Europe is already playing...

Already said this in another post elsewhere thats the only good thing that the US players get to do some more beta testing for us so we get a better game with less bugs lol
They should still have released it on time though as some in the US got the game before the official release date.

So you're only sending your support to 1/5th of the Europeans playing this game?
Not very friendly now is it. Heh.
