Actually, on SOE's part it would be smart to give bonuses to people who join the game through referral system, like WoW does. It doesn't have to be anything strong or even permanent - double exp for a week for example. Or a 50% off SC for a week, something along those lines. Because as it stands people have zero incentive to be invinted other than fullfilling someone else's greed.
Haha, I think that's pure genious. And honestly, doesn't hurt anyone I mean seriously, paying for google ads for SOE recruit is probably the cheapest way of getting the points? Post an ad for 5 days, get 500 recruits? 25 pay?
At least he's actually doing something instead of complaining on the forums that it's impossible... People tend to over use that word here.
It's spam. He's turned his account into yet another crap promotion that Youtube needs to get around to deleting. It's almost as bad as the comment spammers who make alts to upvote their "bit . ly / thisisclearlyavirus" comments.
Pretty cheesy and unlikely to work. Could give SOE a bit of a bad name when people are spamming around hoping to get recruits.
The problem with doing what guy in the OP is doing is that it turns this recruit-a-friend program into spam-and-annoy-random-people program.
