Reminds me of Ebert. I have to congratulate the quarter to three forum on being the only circa-2000 message board still operating more decrepit and irrelevant than this one though

There might be a time limit, but if you had a lot of money on the line they might make an exception Are you guys who are selling off your ships and pledge packages on Reddit/etc using Paypal? I did and I'm mildly worried that the nerd who bought my stuff will take advantage of Paypal's buyer-friendliness to chargeback on me when the poo poo really hits the fan.

Buy rear admiral for $275, gift it to an original backer, get a LTI rear admiral back with a $250 melt value, two years later have CIG refused to refund you $25 you tipped the guy (that's fair enough), plus refuse to refund the $250 lti package you received. Total spend $275, refund $0.

Surely legally they have no need to give refunds to people who bought pictures of spaceships? I had kind of assumed they had T&Cs saying they wouldn't have to refund, otherwise how would crowdfunding ever work, though I suppose that doesn't necessarily mean they have no legal obligation. Pretty much thought they were giving refunds just to keep the noise down.

But they seem to be somewhere between giving refunds to keep the noise down, giving refunds to build a damages case and giving refunds because they haven't decided if they're giving refunds or not.

If anything, next month they are obligated just going off their own TOS alone since they promised to deliver at most one year over their expected delivery date of Nov. 2014.

I'd be happy to have you guys compare to other released games once we are released 
until then its a bit early! Even at this stage though it's not far off and the tech is identical, if not further, than Ryse was already.

Dusty Lens posted:That's the message they sent a friend of mine as well. I melted everything I had that had some kind of value, so my account shows a balance of $x. I can prove that I spent at least $x, so I want $x back and they can remove the credit from my account. Anything less than that is when you start involving the FTC, AGs, and/or lawyers.
