I’ve always thought SE has been pretty upfront with their fees on FFXI. I’ve played it for a long time and never had a payment problem ever. It pretty much tells you what you have to pay and when to pay it.

big lawsuits also serve to send a message to other people who might consider this behavior.
If the penalty is small, people will risk it.

After taxes, lawyers fees, court costs, 100,000 people times 50$, etc It’s not that high of
a number.

Every thing is always some one else’s fault. Not mine, it is never my fault. I have no brain, so there fore I can not think, there fore I can not read the fine print, therefore…..blah, blah , blah. you know?

I should sue Bill Gates for my occasional lousy spelling, it is his fault for creating spell checker. There was no warning label on the program that said Warning: the use of spell checker may cause the user to forget how to spell, due to the fact that we are auto correcting all the misspelled words for you, instead of using your head. Side effects include, lost of vision when reading important documents, eyestrain and laziness.

Thats how i see there actions.

Thanks for the suggestion, i will buy fuel instead. Hopefully an add on comes around to change the weather to all hurricanes or all rain. haha.

I don’t love SE, but I hope these guys lose.

5 mill in damages over what? $15 you paid because you misread a document?
One thing I hate more than companies that overcharge, is idiots that sue for millions in ‘damages’ as if that tiny amount fucked with their life that bad that they require MILLIONS to fix it, no, fuck off.

I would not be surprised that these people did not completely read the document since they said that it was “hidden”, so my read is that, it was not on the first page of the user agreement.
