Not sure why you are mentioning the game client at all, as the title is shown on the Firefall forums, not in-game. In fact the moment you click my name to view my profile here, you can see my Firefall profile linked since we had to do that for the Veteran status anyways. Literally 2 clicks from verification.

And no need to lecture on the funding aspect as you did. If you had read my full reply instead of skimming, you would have seen me mention that any rebate received would have gone right back into the game anyways. Active listening (reading) is a good skill to practice for someone with a "Forum Tech" badge. I'm not demeaning you by the way, just giving some friendly advice.
Please refrain from personal attacks, I tried to explain to you why is founder credit offer set this way. Titles displayed on forums can be set only through game client. We have to think about all players and even though you have your title set, other people don't. If we permitted title validation it would convey a message that it's necessary to install and run Firefall in order to be able to claim higher tier reward and in turn that would lead to a lot of frustration and support requests to get the game working.

Boundary had to be set at criteria that made most sense for everybody. Many suggested stacking of packs, providing credentials and parsing total of all payments made etc, yes there are those who spent $2000+ and got no reward whatsoever. In bigger picture it doesn't matter if someone spent $5000 or $1 on Firefall, bought this pack or that pack, it makes same difference here. Better reward was extended to founders simply because they were the first pioneers and can be automatically and easily validated just as veterans with little to no extra effort required.

This is the LAST CALL FOR EXCLUSIVE, NEVER AGAIN SEEN perks and unlocks! This is the first and last time motorcycles mounts will ever be offered! Funding ends around midnight tonight PDT. Don't miss out!

That's a shame, though I'd think the Beta Commando title I have on my Firefall forums account is easily verifiable? The refund would have just gone towards additional backing here anyways in addition to my Firstclaimer pack.
Technically title can be verified, but very few people have necessary title and enticing people into downloading and launching Firefall was deemed too evil as it would be immensely painful for them and us, Firefall barely runs and doesn't even launch with newer OS updates and drivers and people would seek support here, R5 support is gone. This is meant to be a reward, not a torture. :cool:

Also it's important to note, not a single dollar spent on Firefall was transferred to Em-8ER and all the rewards are offsetting this game's future earnings. We are all extremely grateful @Grummz made this offer to Firefall veterans at all.
