Reglar Access - 20K EP starting, with game access on 11/25/2010
Risk vs. Reward - those ppl who took the risk of getting early access on a new game release rewarded with an extra weeks access and 20K EP more than regular access.
However, said people also had to work like hell that first week to start getting the elements together to actually start producing raw materials and product for the markets, and also try and establish control/domination of area of their operations.
Take off the tinfoil hats, people, no conspiracy, no undercover bonus for people who had played beta - btw, you realise that thosE beta players are one of the reasons the game is so good, right? It was their input, and working with the DEVs, that provided the data for the DEVS to create this product, with much fewer problems and game issues than probably any other MMO out there when released.
Your opinions and emotional reactions that you received "less" than someone else are groundless. 20k EP starting allows you to train multple skills to sufficient levels to be competitive in the game. Again, choices manifest consequences, did you choose to keep up on new developements and news, or not, what do I apply my EP to, or not. You made your choices, and now complain that you do not like the result, and due to that every who made a different choice should not reap the rewards from their choices.
FACTS AND DATA PWN YOUR OPINIONS/EMOTIONS FOR OVER 9000 DAMAGE!
In the gods we trust, all others bring data!
