So me and my mate wandered into HMV the other day, and after much slagging off about who decided we should play what crappy MMO (RF Online is still your fault... "It's got mechs!"... Makes you sound like Mrs. Doyle), we saw the pre-order box for AOR standing on the shelf like gaming porn staring at us.

Well needless to say we snatched up a couple of these bad boys and after paying a tenner each for two empty boxes we clutched em in our sweaty mitts and stomped off to his place to get all regged up and await the beautiful day that is the open beta - henceforth called B-day.
First task - register. Ok, no problem, I yoinked my mate's lappy and we both sit there like good little game-monkeys (not game-goblins... he works in town though) and signed up, even to the point of answering the optional questions... which I never normally do. Once done we patiently sit waiting for our emails. I obviously unable to go no further since I need my dxdiag file off this machine.

*ding* Dear user, thankyou for signing up, yadda yadda yadda... click on this link to register for the beta.

So the link is dutifully clicked on and all of a sudden we find ourselves looking at a very familiar registration screen....

"Fill it in again" I say.
"Fuck's sake" He says, and does. I go back to looking on the site.
"It's not working" He moans. "did you go through it all again?" I mention... "Yes!", the whingy shit says.

I roll my eyes and decide there's no alternative - "Send a ticket, dude" pointing to the 'report a problem with this site' link at the bottom.

I went home the day after and ended up sending a ticket myself for another issue... Have we heard anything? have we fuck. 3 days for him, 2 days for me... backlog of issues, or just can't be arsed? Discuss.
