    Heres the original story: http://pc.gamespy.com/pc/warhammer-online/1083026p1.html    
    There's been a giant shitstorm over the accidental overbilling of customers who play Warhammer online and Dark age of Camelot! 
    What would you do if this happened to you? I would totally ask for a free lifetime subscription.

    Warhammer Online has to make money somehow, right?

    I remember Paul Barnett going: "Millions and millions of subscribers". Talk about epic fail

    Yeah it's been posted already, but this is a huge huge fuck up on Mythic's part, the sad thing is I didn't think they could push WAR any further down the drain.

    I would kick myself in the ass for even thinking about playing those games.

    It's actually one of the best PvP MMOs out there.  Unfortunately I think I'm done after this debacle.  After the multiple subscription renewals I am -$100 in my bank account.  And that is before overdraft fees.  If that refund isn't there tomorrow I'm going to be about $500 in the hole from this.  Plus... yeah no money to buy food.  GG Mythic.
