    Buy it. Pay for it.

    You don't need them to do that....

    Tell them the monthly fee is to keep the riff-raff out like negative creeps, people who swear a lot and dirty minded people. The monthly fee is so that you can play without being harrassed. That might make them warm up to it. image

    first question is, can you buy the game and afford the monthly fees out of your own pocket without asking your parents to pay for it? if you can and you have your own computer, go for it, if not... well... then i would have to agree with your parents, i think its a nad idea for parents to indulge their kids on a mmorpg these days, life in school is hard enough without having unwanted vices, grades, girl friends, soccer practice, i thank god that there were no mmorpg´s of note during the time i was in highschool, then i got to college and everquest made me its b*tch, now that i married i can indulge a little while the wife is looking the other way image

    Wow, all that time and my post got deleted...

    I guess I'll just paraphrase: Show your parents the money, have an honest talk with them, and let them know it's your money. Make sure you play the "I know you're my parents and you're just looking out for my best interest" card. But let them know you're ready to spend your money on how you see fit. Always keep professional and collected, don't act like a 14 year old kid who wants a new toy. Maturity is the key--fake that, and you can get it. :P

    Also, if they still don't believe it's a good investment of money, there have been a lot of good arguments on these forums made recently about the price of MMORPGs and how cheap they actually are.

    If they don't like the idea of monthly fees, how are you playing FFXI?

    I smell BS.

    Well if you've tried everything then what do you expect from us? Making mistakes(like buying EQ2 ::::39::) is part of growing up, best advice I can give you is try to get your parents to realize that.

    What does sending a letter have to do with getting EQ2?

    .... how to pay monthly fees, and i dident only mean EQ2, i meant monthly fee games generally. In some games you can send letter's to pay. Im Sorry that i left the "Eq2" part -.-
