Thread: 5th november for whole Europe? and servers already JTL enabled? this isn't fair at all!
#2 You think theres a conspiracy or some such for Americans against you guys? K.... Heres what you need to do.... IMMEDIATELY check yourself into the nearest pysch ward or grow up. Its not like this doesnt happen to Americans just as much as the next people. If SOE didnt start the servers up for JtL and I had the expansion in my hand I can guarentee you all hell would break loose.
1. Activision messed up the amount of copies was needed
2. Activision wants to push GTA
3. America needed all our copies
4. No one really likes Europe
5. It's fun to annoy the europeans
6. Europe is soooooo l33t that the 10+ day delay aint gonna help the yanks. (ok this one hasn't been said but hey I'm laughing on the inside)
7. (I forgot one) It's the aliens they don't want europe to have it (darn those greys).
And the response from the americans (who already have their copies or will be getting them today)
1. It's just a game stop whining.
2. Waah Waah Waah.
3. It's only been delayed a few days get over it.
4. Oh poor persecuted europeans.
5. Bad show what.
6. Yes it may be a little unfair.
And SOE response has been.
The global release date for jtl (for europe) is now the 5th november.
Oh well looks like I will have to build a fast breeder reactor on my birthday instead of playing JTL (and if the americans send troops over to stop me please bring a copy of jtl).

No one person is better then another. We are all equal in my eyes. However, it is still your governments that regulate when stuff is released to you and how much you pay. I see these arguments time and time again in just about any MMO out today. American companies are not discriminating against European customers. They just have to follow certain guidelines and laws put forth by the European governments.
So, you're saying that Euro govs are discriminating and frustrating their own people, while US companies are caring about people all over the world... hmmm... you'd better open your eyes, bro.
This what SOE (not even a 100% US capital company) is doing to us euro customers is unfair, true. But you can always try to ask what do people think about US companies in Pakistan, India, Brazil... That companies are there to make money, real money and will not only care about people but abuse the system to get the best profit.
So please, don't tell is our country goverment who is behind this crap. SOE can always delay the JTL activation untill ALL HIS CUSTOMERS have the opportunity to buy (omg, we're not asking to play for free!!) the game. This way, I won't see dozens of experienced Shipwrights the momment I login into JTL for the first time.
If that happens, I'll do it my best to only deal with non US vendors/artisans. not only for JTL related stuff, but for the whole game. They may feel how cuban people feels
