Beta Wipe Tomorrow. High Lifetime Supporters Added. Faster Beta Timer!

I think it's funny that everyone who didn't donate more than $500 is making a fuss and saying those that did aren't entitled to anything....

Did you see the part where Chris said "If you weren't included (possibly due to complex manual pack merges that had no dollar value attributed), then please contact support@grindinggear.com and they can help!"

Yeah, well I emailed support and they just told me "Hi GodlyMe,

I have just checked your account but unfortunately we're unable to add Beta access to your account at this stage I'm afraid. "

No explanation, just a "no".

I'd like to know why not, that's all.

It's hard for people to not feel semi-entitled when the lead Dev basically "promises" you something, so I'm not sure why people would give others a hard time for feeling that way.

Never argue with an idiot. They'll bring you down to their level, and beat you with experience!

Just in case it was misinterpreted - my comment re: irony wasn't directed at you, rather at someone feeling entitled enough to post "on behalf of GGG" about other people feeling entitled :)

It tickled my giggle bone.

You're the reason companies outsource customer service to India and include mutli-layered selection menus.

Funny, yes. The emotional hook works as intended. :)

I'm just going to ignore the Salty Troll.

Seems to me you didn't meet the threshold, if you're sure you do, email them again with details of your expenditures. If that doesn't work, I'd email Chris.

Personally, I had gone through a couple complex manual upgrades in the past, so I wasn't in the auto-send round of >$500 invites. When I emailed them, they looked into it and then granted me access something like 12 hours after acknowledgement of the email.

chris asked in the ziggyD podcast not to be mailed with invitation related mails as he hasn't got the time to answer them at the moment.
