More like:



Ironically, SSG's general customer service model and levels would give Comcast a run for it's money, too.

Safe to say that SSG is the Comcast of MMOs.

Used to be you were auto-granted that shit on log-in.

If we pretended they are different companies, then it only took SSG about a year to figure out what every business (except Turbine) already knew: Make customers retrieve their shit with a code, and half of them don't.

It's not like they're losing bucks from this giveaway, but I bet they're sharing a few quick high-fives in accounting.

They sneaked in more changes than just 'some patch to activate raider box'.... 404 Iterations that make changes to maps on both Eberron and Faerun ( read : changes regarding the terrain )
plus a launcher update a client update and an awesomium update....

Sometimes they put in next the next update's code early but don't have it "active" yet.

Remember when they redid the interior of the tower of the 12, but you could teleport to the new one before it officially went live?

That would be funny if major broadband ISPs weren't actively using it today. Both Cox and Comcast meter broadband usage and charge per 10 GB over a limit in some markets (not markets where they have to compete against Google Fiber, though). 1999 is perfectly happy to let us keep using their technology, as long as we have a Verizon lawyer heading the FCC.

Ok.  In my market the major competitors for internet are Spectrum, AT&T, Dish/Centurylink and all provide unlimited usage for a flat monthly fee from 29.99 per month to 99.99 per month for consumer ISP services, depending on bandwidth.  It has been that way for at least 15 years.

Even during the dialup era we didn't have that kind of thing here.

Some ISP tried it in the early DSL era ( with a hard cap in download ), but they removed it pretty fast when they discovered that they were loosing customers faster than the DSL bandwidth ( at that time ) allowed.

Then we had Free that just blew up everything with the triple play box, almost everyting unlimited, unlimited download speed [ up to the DSL line ability ], unlimited local calls, International calls were paid, and upload speed is limited... They have done the same thing with the Fiber: 1Gb down, 250Mb up... [ when the fucking thing can do 1Gb Up And Down at the same time ] and the rest hasn't changed.

You need to go living in a decent country... here there's some metering... and it's not a charge, it's just a throttle on the bandwidth.... and it's for Mobile Broadband.
Fixed lines are unrestricted.

You need to move too Ash... here for a pure Internet ( no triple play ) it's 16€/month, for triple play it's 29€, and if you want fiber it's between 29 and 60€... for consumer grade connections. Profesionnal connections with all the perks that goes with that are more expensive.

Sorry, Slick, it's not limited to throttling anymore, and it's not just my ISP.

I completely agree, in a few more years, when I'm not tied to a school system, I'm going to propose to my boss that I permanently telecommute ... from Bordeaux! Or maybe Aalborg, I really liked Aalborg, I just worry about winters Grin

I like the part where furriners have no idea how large America is.

I have a gig line, with no cap.  I do terabytes/week.  Not everywhere is like that, even mere miles from here.

Everything terrible you have to say about the FCC though, I'll agree with.

Those are prices for between 30mb and 1  GB connections.   Even the cheap stuff is fast.

You also got 250 TP. Apparently they were added to all the eligible accounts today.
