    It should be mentioned that the only keys they're giving away is for those with paid premium accounts. So unless you have a premium account or want to pay to play the beta you're out of luck. If you do, kudos!

    LMAO its just a stupid way to get MONEY. Did you read how many times "Premium Member" was in that? Watch how many PREMIUM members get one... scam .. at least at MMORG you can enter and it costs you NOTHING.

    The deal was made with TTH because they've been very good to SGW, so while you do have to pay for the premium membership - which I only mentioned because I thought it should be mentioned - you are supporting SGW in a way. So consider that before labeling it a scam. They also don't try and trick you into anything on the sly and I'm sure that the memberships offer more benifits then JUST being in the SGW beta.

    This post talks a bit about why the deal was made, so check it out before you completely knock the opportunity - also it says there that becoming a premium member is a guaranteed way to get a beta.

    So if you decide you want the premium membership, which you do have to pay for, then you're in. That simple.

    I got my code and beta reserved through this. I don't care if its pay-to-beta, I want to make sure I can help this game be successful. The only other way to do so is hope for a random invite or make lots of discussions at the forums, something I'm not into doing really.

    I really see no difference between TTH and mmorpg.com, other than I like it here better and everything here is free.

    At least Fileplanet has some things that make the occasional membership purchase worthwhile (free games, magazines, and such along with betas ). TTH has nothing going for it in this regard and yet tries to ask for payment.

    SGW earlier this year encouraged people to come to their site and register ...since they said, those would be the most likely to get into the beta.Then what do they do..they give out thousands of beta keys to members of another site who did not even have to demonstrate any interest in the game....didn't have to demonstrate acceptable computer specs...nada.Meanwhile the SGW faithful...hanging around in the forums..posting....following every word from the SGW devs get thrown under the bus.Heck..you don't even need to register  at the SGW forums...just fork over the 20 buck at TTH to become a premium member.So much for rewarding fan loyalty...or the BS about screening people with proper computer specs...or those who have demonstrated they would be good testers.Just hand over the cash.

    (TTH is a great site and I recommend it)

    Hey, wait, they're still giving out many many keys to members of their forums. 

    The Beta is not some static entity where there's X possible keys and the evil TTH peopel are stealing some.  There's as many keys out there as the developers want there to be, and giving some to TTH doesn't mean that the forums got 'less.'  This would only be true if you hypothesized there was some static limit of keys out there.

    There isn't.  They could make 5,000 keys with a few keystrokes on their servers. 

     

    It's absolutely absurd thinking to assume people are 'stealing' your keys when keys is a demonstrably non-static entity.

    If you subscribe you will get one, the beta will start on 09/12/08, so no you are not late

    Honestly i would do this but i just dont really trust websites that "give away" stuff to there, in this case, "Premium Members."  For all i know they are completely legitiment and i could be missing out but at the same time, i could be rite and they could be trying to get my credit card number or something you know... im just sayin i would rather not pay for a key online.

    The beta does NOT start on 9/12, go to TTH again as there is an apology about a mixup and they will explain how you will get in beta or how it will work.
