The line was drawn and honestly, it doesn't need to be extended or changed.
IF they decided to create other rewards for 11 - 10 and 8-9 that would be a plus but if you jumped in, and kept the sub active whatever the means....considering this game needed a lot of attention and still does need some more TLC....
- 12 month subscribers should be rewarded and rightly so as they literally funded the development of this game.
All who was subscribed at least one month funded the development of this game.

We all know how easily ZOS changes their mind. Why they shouldn't do it one more time?
If they start making exceptions they will never stop. I missed an hour. I missed a week. I missed a month. I missed 6 months. This is why they are most likely going to stick to their guns. I hope at least. Sick of them caving to the incessant whining of the forums. Why not just accept the fact you didnt sub 100% of the time so you dont qualify?

They didn't say every month. They said subbed from April to March, no leeway. There's no basis to read it as "could miss a week as long as you got some time during that month". That's kinda exactly what "no leeway" implies. Of course, we dont know which day in April exactly and what "subbed" means (because April was covered by 30 free days and then we got 5 days more, so everyone started paying in May).jamesharv2005ub17_ESO wrote: »Not for a month.

Where did they say even a day disqualifies you? They said you needed to be subbed from April (notice they said no date in April) to March 17th relaunch. Nowhere did they say a day or even a week would disqualify you. All you need is to be subbed every month from April to March 17th.

No, no they didn't.
Zenimax funded development. You paid Zenimax back.
Where do people get these ideas from?
My worry is that everyone who has complimentary game time will once again be screwed by the system and end up having to petition to gain these pets.
Been subbed for the entire time ESO has been out but I have had seven days free game time due to bugs within in the game, this now pushes me back out of each first wave of pets every time.

If we could get a green post like this, there wouldn't be much worry.
Fact is, we haven't. Hence the concern.
I don't think anyone is too stressed about it right now, because as you said - it's not time to stress it until it comes around and we don't get it. We are, for the most part, just voicing our concerns on the whole "no anticipated leeway" comment so that if these unfortunate cases that the players had no control over haven't already been considered, perhaps they will be - before the reward is handed out, rather than after.
I don't think I've read anyone who has missed more than a week or two asking to be given something they don't deserve. If I missed such a post, I apologize. Those who willingly unsubbed for any extended period clearly do not meet the criteria - and I would not argue that with you. I think this thread is about another issue entirely - a few days or weeks of subscription lapse due to circumstances outside of our influence.

Must have missed it. Could you link this for us? I think that would clear up a lot of the concerns. So far, all I've seen from ZOS is:
"subscribed from original launch through the Tamriel Unlimited transition"
"subscribed the entire time the game was sub-based"
"purchased the game and have subbed since April 2014 to March 17, 2015"
"I do not anticipate there being any leeway"

Yup, only way to get pets on the first wave is to not played early access or had any additional bonus game time. If they're using the same system for the twelve month reward they're going to get a lot of petitions.
Except that it doesn't say what you're assuming at all.

It says April so clearly it counts free time. As I read it that says very clear all you need is to have setup a sub and kept it each month. If that means you missed a day or a few days and dont qualify then thats not cool at all. I think it means tho you could have missed a day or week and still count as paid for the month.

If you had an active sub every month including free time (April was free remember) then you qualify. You are the one assuming it means without even a 1 hour break. I am just going by what he said.

If your sub lapsed for a day, then that day is a part left out. By definition, you have then not been subscribed for the entire time.
Now perhaps that's not what he meant, but it is definitely what he said. So until and unless ZOS tells us otherwise, we have to assume that anybody whose sub lapsed for any amount of time (whether it be a week, a day, an hour...) will not be getting this reward.

Look you can play words games all day. You dont know what he meant by the entire time. Could just as easily mean every month. Just like no date was set for April. You can assume all you wish but i seriously doubt they will go make sure you were subbed every minute of every month since launch. More likely they will see if you had an active sub in each month. If so then you are good.
So relax.

The fact remains that you're the one making assumptions that he meant something different from what he actually said. Did he mean that? Maybe. If so he should have actually said it, instead of saying something that means the exact opposite.
Assuming that what he actually meant was "as long as you have an active sub at some point during every month" is a massive assumption on your part though, and here you are loudly proclaiming to everyone that he definitely meant something significantly different from what he actually said.
So taking what was said at face value, and reading exactly nothing into it that isn't there is "arguing semantics" now? And somehow interpreting "I do not anticipate there being any leeway" as "there will definitely be at least a couple of weeks of leeway" is the reasonable thing to do? I can only imagine the amount of mental gymnastics that must have gone into coming to that conclusion...jamesharv2005ub17_ESO wrote: »lol so actually understanding what a word means is playing word games?

Must have missed it. Could you link this for us? I think that would clear up a lot of the concerns. So far, all I've seen from ZOS is:
"subscribed from original launch through the Tamriel Unlimited transition"
"subscribed the entire time the game was sub-based"
"purchased the game and have subbed since April 2014 to March 17, 2015"
"I do not anticipate there being any leeway"

Thanks for trying to calm every one down
It says April so clearly it counts free time. As I read it that says very clear all you need is to have setup a sub and kept it each month. If that means you missed a day or a few days and dont qualify then thats not cool at all. I think it means tho you could have missed a day or week and still count as paid for the month.
If you had an active sub every month including free time (April was free remember) then you qualify. You are the one assuming it means without even a 1 hour break. I am just going by what he said.
For your reference, here's the definition of entire:
en·tire
ənˈtī(ə)r/
adjective
adjective: entire
1.
with no part left out; whole.
"my plans are to travel the entire world"
synonyms: whole, complete, total, full;
undivided
"I devoted my entire life to him"
If your sub lapsed for a day, then that day is a part left out. By definition, you have then not been subscribed for the entire time.
Now perhaps that's not what he meant, but it is definitely what he said. So until and unless ZOS tells us otherwise, we have to assume that anybody whose sub lapsed for any amount of time (whether it be a week, a day, an hour...) will not be getting this reward.
Look you can play words games all day. You dont know what he meant by the entire time. Could just as easily mean every month. Just like no date was set for April. You can ASSume all you wish but i seriously doubt they will go make sure you were subbed every minute of every month since launch. More likely they will see if you had an active sub in each month. If so then you are good.
So relax.
The fact remains that you're the one making assumptions that he meant something different from what he actually said. Did he mean that? Maybe. If so he should have actually said it, instead of saying something that means the exact opposite.
Assuming that what he actually meant was "as long as you have an active sub at some point during every month" is a massive assumption on your part though, and here you are loudly proclaiming to everyone that he definitely meant something significantly different from what he actually said.
What you are doing is arguing semantics. Fine doom and gloom the forums with your semantics. I'll bookmark this be happy to come back and eat crow if you are correct. I wont continue to argue for now tho.
