Screwing Founders

I have to admit I feel less than overwhelmed with the love being shown to founders.  I rolled a toon, got my founder loot, played a while, truly enjoyed it.

Came back today and couldn't get to the toon I rolled yesterday because there were absurd queues with no preference given to founders.

So I rolled another toon on a different server that had a very short queue.  Got right in, went to a mailbox, and found that apparently the founder pack loot is a one-off deal.   Really, Trion?  Yer really gonna limit me to enjoying the perks of my early support on one character that so far I can only even get to half the time?

I seriously hope they apply a little common sense here and do the right thing.  Anyone else having founder regret?

    Everyone already knew that's how it worked though, and why are you server hopping? Play on the server you committed to, when you server hop you screw people over that genuinely want to be on the server you hopped to. It is a good thing items are bound to one toon.

    Server hopping?  Pfft.  That's one of the stupidest things I've ever heard.  

    I don't recall agreeing to anything locking me to one server, especially one with a longer-than-one-hour queue.   I'll play on whichever server I like, when I like -- especially when one is available and another is not.

    Why would it ever be good that it's only tied to one character per account?  I'm not sure if you are just a fanboy defending this nonsense, or you actually believe this.  Either way it's ridiculous.  Especially considering some people paid $150.

    The chests are only available on the first character but the other goodies are available on the first six characters created. You wouldn't have got them yesterday because the system was bugged and nobody was getting them . The six hours maintenance carried out since was supposed to address this amongst other things. I haven't logged in myself since then to see whether it's fixed.

    The only people getting screwed are those people who exploited the system to lock up multiple properties in the hope of forcing other players to pay extortionate amounts of money for them. Now there is plenty of space for all patrons to have property if some move to one of the new servers. You'd have to be desperate to pay someone else for land now.

    All founder items except for the "Daru chests" have 6 uses, So the first 6 characters you created will receive the founder items, except as said before the Daru chests. 

    Myself I did not get my founder items I made a support ticket and got them within a few hours. 

    Make a support ticket if you did not make more than 6 characters and have not received your founder items. Except as said, the Daru chests. Which is pretty much = 40 gold + more if you are lucky.

    I played a few days before the official opening and enjoyed it.  Taking off for about a week.  Can't imagine trying to play the game during rush hour (official opening days).  It would be next to impossible to get any quests done.

    This. Submit a ticket if you didn't get everything you're entitled to per the terms of your purchase.
