Unhappy Dear Jeremy, heard some vets have rec'd invites to test KR Beta.

~~~Hello! You have been a customer for nearly a decade now, and that means your opinion of Kingdom Reborn is very important to us. We would like to invite you to sign up for our next stage of KR beta testing.Beta codes will be handed out in the order of account age, in order to show our appreciation for our eldest Elders. Thank you for all you’ve meant to the Ultima Online community for all these years, and see you in Kingdom Reborn! ~~~
Is not paying EA for 388 months of gaming on 6 accounts (without the close 2.9 months and then open one month tactic) not deserving of an invite? The oldest account shows 116 months. Is it because I don't feel an unsecured Feedback website is a place I want to give my account name and e-mail to? I have one e-mail listed on the accounts webpage for over a year now, yet I still get e-mail from EA on a previous e-mail that was changed more than a year ago? Do you see why I am hesitant to give out my info on your site? If that site were secure, this feedback wouldn't be on a public forum.
I have posted on bugs like Taste ID being stuck, broken gm made weapons on test shard, and even found the same guard zone at Justice shrine bug that Wilki did!
Test Center Bugs found... I'm still hoping for an invite for KR Beta, but feeling awfully rejected at this time.

Jeremy did respond to the question about KR Beta invites for vets ...

Simply put, there are 5000+ accounts of the right age and we don't need that many testers just yet, so we scooped some names off the top. I know everyone is eager to get to testing, but this ramp-up is going to be really fast - we're talking about a matter of weeks between 30 testers and 30,000 testers. I know I've been saying this a lot, but patience!

Thanks Queen Mum and Jeremy... needed that tidbit of info to ease the fear of being insignificant. *curses at name near end of alphabet* or however far "off the top" is.

I'd love to get in on the beta, but with only a 3 month old account I dont stand a dog in hell's chance :-(

Re: Dear Jeremy, heard some vets have rec'd invites to test KR Beta.

I dont think it matter whose there as long as the players are active ones.

I have been in UO 9yrs, but age doesnt really matter really i feel. And also if they go by the age of the account, it may be an account that has been sold on a few times.

I have to disagree that account age doesn't matter. True, there are probably some old accounts that have been sold to others over the years, but there are likely far more old accounts that are both active and in play by the original owners.

I'm completely biased, having been playing actively on my oldest account for 9 years, 3 months and 7 days, and on my second oldest account for 8+ years. (I've paid for as many as 4 accounts at a time over the years).

It's not like the oldest vets get discounts or anything. (I can ride a polar bear, which is admittedly very cool, but everybody can ride SOMETHING, and it's not like the polar bear has any special powers).

Come on. Loyalty and 9 years worth of subscription payments have to be worth at least a sneak peak at KR, the biggest overhaul in the 9+ years I've played this game.

On that note, I haven't received a beta invite. Oh sad.

Re: Dear Jeremy, heard some vets have rec'd invites to test KR Beta.

I partly agree but not many people can stick with a game for 9 years, let alone longer. I certainly have played UO for a long time in many different ways and forms, but its going to be the new players which will shape the outcome of UO in the future not the vets. Though I do stand to be corrected on that statement

Re: Dear Jeremy, heard some vets have rec'd invites to test KR Beta.

I just hope that whoever they gave those beta codes to, are actually gonna be testing the game. My honey's accounts are pretty old, but if he got an invite I know he wouldn't have any interest in testing anything or even logging there right now.

Re: Dear Jeremy, heard some vets have rec'd invites to test KR Beta.

Thats true, the could send 300 codes out and only 50 of them are actually full time players or even part time. I suppose they have a method set up, and usually regardless of NDA people still give screenies an such out yet I see nothing.

My account is over 9 yrs too and I received nothing. I know someone else that got one and hasn't played in years Oh well I just hope that they don't mess this up for us dial up players.
