The Old Republic Cancellation Issues; Trailer

The Star Wars: The Old Republic Forums have posts from players having trouble cancelling their accounts for the MMORPG yesterday on the eve of when the one-month free accounts activated on the game's first day will be billed for their first paid month of service. Massively notes this thread with a workaround, and that customer service suggests customers with such issues contact them by phone. On the other hand, BioWare announces how not cancelling will earn players a "Founder" title, and the website now offers a video showing new features coming to the game in the future. In a separate bit of news related to the game, this post has word from the game's Live Community Coordinator that they have temporarily disabled posting for all community members on the Star Wars: The Old Republic Forums. No explanation for this is offered.

Hmm, not posting on the forums reeks of damage control revved to the max. And people not having the sub cancellation button available? Oh dear.

Bioware is in panic mode, and now they shut down the forums to try and keep things in control but all that is doing is making things worst. I cancelled mine after the Slicing nerf.

I got so pissed off about it that I said screw this and canceled mine. Glad I did, because things are spiraling out of control and EA is now looking like shit. But turning off the forums and trying to prevent people from subscription cancelations is just wrong.

Furthermore, why do they still have the worst streaming video quality available anywhere? Jeeeez.

Not surprising sadly. I'll keep my subscription active but we'll see what happens once I get a character to 50.

I'll be cancelling after my included 30-day trial. The game is just as disappointing as I had feared, despite hopes that it would be more than WoW in space. It's not.

In trying to access my account today, I first received an error saying the site was too busy, then was placed in a queue to access my account (what the fuck, Bioware?), and finally I could access my account after waiting for about an hour.

A queue to access your account?! WTF? Is this normal in other MMORPGs?

"We're always listening to the community, that's why we've disabled posting on the forums because we here at Bioware can't handle criticism"

I love how that video announcing new features doesn't actually announce anything they're adding beyond what people already knew.
