    I love this thread, every post is golden.

    But for the OP, maybe it is your partner trying to tell you she is not having as much fun playing DDO as you have?
    Just maybe perhaps, dunno really?

    You spend $73,000.00 (seventy three thousand) a year on DDO?

    If you have a partner, turn off the bloody computer and spend time with them! The same goes double if you have children. This level of neglect is one of many reasons why I weep for our future.

    Kinda like if the restaurant left your order in the kitchen, but if you come in this afternoon they'll bring it out. Cold stale fish. Yummy.



    And can you imagine the reverse:

    DDO: I'm calling for Fen...

    Fen: Hey! DDO! I'm playing your Sharn pac right now. Loads of fun! You guys really knocked it out of the park this time.

    DDO: Thank you, but your credit card was declined.

    Fen: Did you enter the security code properly? Try again maybe.... pew pew! pew pew pew! this is fun!

    DDO: We did that. Still declined.

    Fen: Probably your vendor connection. Try turning all the power off for 15 seconds, if you see a blinky yellow light try again, if you see two blinky lights call your ISP.

    DDO: No, all the other purchases work fine.

    Fen: Well, I'm kinda busy here playing your product that you weren't paid for, come back Monday?

    DDO: ....

    Fen: I know. Call your bank and have them call my bank. Your case# is wwkkshjoiuih4388ay67sdkq29sadujfsajp9wq349pfsdgj;o k[-0=jkksdjf . Be sure you don't type 0 when you mean 0

    DDO: Sir, that's really not -

    Fen: And you'll need to register with my bank's site. Be sure to use a password that includes upper case, lower case, a number, 2 symbols and an Egyptian hieroglyphic. And include the word "shrubbery" somewhere in there.

    DDO: We are suspending your account until we receive payment.

    (that's how it would go)
    I actually found that humorous and had to read the whole thing.

    I think that definitely qualifies as a whale. He should probably have a personal SSG assistant to aid in entering a code if this is the case.

    You should probably cancel your DDO account after this.

    That will save you $70,000+ per year and let you do even bigger and better things together with your wife.

    Bigger and better than DDO?

    The mind boggles.

    Exclamation

    I am such a piker. I am only VIP for DDO & LOTRO. That's barely $240 a year. I feel like I'm abusing the system. I'm not 1/300th of the SSG supporter that the OP is. I feel so ashamed.

    I hope the OP was exaggerating, if you are actually spending that much on DDO I would encourage you to reassess your spending.
    The blinking Drooam "backpack" is NOT a party buff. But its fun to say it is.

    I mean, he's trying to spend time with his wife *on* DDO, so. Maybe don't judge how others like to spend their time together perhaps?

    And you did give them money...

    Yah. She's going through Chemo and this takes her mind off it. And she's having a BLAST. Made a funny toon that looks JUST like Shag (and her artificer pet is named Scoob LOL).


    "That will save you $70,000+ per year"

    You guys are extrapolating too far back. I came back from a 4-5 year break (after HeWho Shant BeNamed nerfed all the icy festival loot and ruined my parked toons and gear
    ...a min level 4 longbow Holy2 PureGood1 Ice1 ...now 9th level vendor trash AAAGH!). Anyways, both accounts were started Jan this year.

    But I just wanted to say THANK YOU TO THE ADMINS or whoever looked in on me. About a week ago my Sharn packages were updated to deluxe (I paid only for the difference) and both accounts had clickies in their inventory that doubleclicked us right into Sharn content without any fuss. Thank you very much and I am a very happy customer again. And I will pay closer attention next time.

    Thank you!
