For my self, i registered Regualry for the CB and i got one , but the key got Junked , i asked the Support for help and the only thing came back " We are sorry there will be soon a Chance to get some new CB keys this or the next week" (it was 1 month ago and nothing happens)
And after i asked in the Forums i got banned, Seriously maybe it was okay if the Rules say so, but for me it was just a Joke.

Anyway i have a key now so i don't really bother, i just hate to see guys try to be part of the Game and get no Real Awnser (i prefer to have a real awnser and not a fake one like, we will start soon another event for CB)

Hrm. I can understand your frustration then. You met with ill fortune and rather than aid you, you were banned for what sounds like it was nothing. Perhaps I'm missing a piece of the puzzle here but I do apologize for the treatment you received.

I was not trying to say that you were selling anything, just saying people shouldn't. It is against the rules and we do have to punish you if you do.

I can also understand the desire for direct answers. In the defense of all of us; no one knows anything concrete. The best that we can do is offer you what we do know and hope that it remains true; because sometimes it does not. I think TotallyMoo is worth trusting in this instance. =)

You are missing a piece of the puzzle, but rather than take it up here I recommend megge to PM me if he has any issue with the 7 day ban I gave him on Paradoxplaza a while ago. Talking moderation decisions in an open thread is pretty unnecessary.

We really want to bring out a lot more beta keys soon, I am just waiting for the word from some of my superiors to start giving green lights.
I never managed to figure out something clever for my signature on Paradoxplaza, and I doubt I'll do it here either.

so, yeah, the Rules say so there.

Let's drop it, this is going off-topic and serves no purpose. This is not Paradoxplaza, and an old conflict does not need to be carried over here.

Unless my thinking is off, I've realized that Open beta will "be" release. Let's look at it. No more map wipes.... Money store is in place and since it's a F2P game no gold copies have to be mastered, anyone will be able to play.... so except for maybe some arbitrary "release date" and the ensuing press, Open beta IS release.

The only potential difference I could see would be % of endgame content implemented. Open beta won't have everything, release should have most if not all currently intended content.

That being said beta stage literally means "all content implemented, testing for balancing and lag issues", so what each stage is called is pretty meaningless anyway.
It's been neat to see the evolution of a game. Salem has come so far, and still has far to go. Although frustrating, I think it's been an experience worth the effort.

Mmog's add content generally to the day they shut down so yeah.... I'd be willing to bet you don't see Witchcraft in Open beta/Release or whatever you call it.
