Linking Promo Ending Soon
By PWE_BranFlakes @ October 2, 2012 at 12:00pm

Our account linking promotion is ending soon, and account linking will become non-optional. If you have not already, link your Cryptic and Perfect World accounts today to receive a special in-game promotional item for one of your STO characters:
Perfect World Account Link Reward
If eligible (see details below) and you have not claimed your reward before, you will be able to claim this item through the in-game C-Store, under the ‘Items’ tab.
Reward contains:
• 5,000 Unrefined Dilithium Ore
• A consumable item that grants 2,500 EXP (or Bridge Officer skill points if your character is at max level)
• A random Rare or Very Rare weapon, scaled to your level (space or ground)
• A pack of random ‘Self’ Dual Consumables
• A pack of random ‘Team’ Dual Consumables
NOTE: This item may only be claimed once per account. If you claim it on one character, you will not be able to claim it on a different one. This promotion originally started on June 19th, 2012, so you may have already taken part in this promotion and claimed your rewards in-game.
During this promotion, anyone who links their Cryptic Account to a Perfect World Account, or has linked their accounts in the past, is eligible to receive this promotional item. This promotion is currently not available to those who choose not to link their account or who don’t have a Cryptic Account to link to their Perfect World Account.
To link your accounts, click “Register/ Login” at the top of any page, and then click “Are you a Cryptic user?”. This will take you through the linking flow, and will also allow you to create a Perfect World Account if you do not have one already.
If you choose not to link a Perfect World Account your Cryptic Account at this time, you can do so in the future by signing into the website and clicking “My Account” at the top of any page.
More information about the account linking process can be found here.

i got no rewards too

Seriously, quit whinin. Free is free and if you don't like it, well you didn't lose anything. Those who have played the game from the beginning logged in via Cryptic. Now PW wants them to log in according to their wishes. Seems fair that the old players get something for that. I just got my 1000 day player awards. I heard I should have a new ship, but after linking accounts, had to jump thru hoops to be able to log in. PW can't seem to recall my email addy or name. Sometimes they recognize me, sometimes they don't. Cryptic had their own issues as well. No game is perfect. The rewards and reasoning are fair. Give 'em a break.

I cannot even open my account and Cryptic World keeps telling me i'm not there.
awsomew @ Oct 8th, 2012 6:22PM

I have not been able to resevice the Perfect World Account Link Reward. The only time that I have seen this is when my invetory is full. What can I do to resive the Perfect World Account Link Reward?

Account linking promo, well let me know when they are giving something worth getting.
cheroj @ Oct 3rd, 2012 5:31PM
Huh, maybe now they are turning this off the game will start remembering my new username instead of the old one.

i had to uncheck the box because of the same issue. i doubt it will be fixed
araknix1 @ Oct 3rd, 2012 4:57PM
The items you get are awesome considering you dont have to do shit other than type two usernames and two passwords and click something. Seriously people.

I would give these "rewards" away just to get old forums, old forum username, right username memorized by the client and my real join date displayed on the forums. Hell! I would give twice these rewards just to get everything right again.
synther1 @ Oct 3rd, 2012 1:52PM
So, those of us that had account linking rammed down our throats months ago are just going to receive jack squat, right? Pfft...typical Cryptic/PWE "rewards." Totally lame.

Quote 'If you choose not to link a Perfect World Account your Cryptic Account at this time, you can do so in the future by signing into the website and clicking “My Account” at the top of any page.' And what then? What option do you need from then on, I have raised this previously with customer support and got no answer.
fevee @ Oct 2nd, 2012 9:01PM
I'm pretty sure I'm linked, yet I never saw the prize available to me.
sharpie65
have you checked the in-game c-store? it could be under items or services
darthdudenate @ Oct 2nd, 2012 6:01PM
so if you started after Jan. 2012 you can't get this? 8-(
sharpie65
i think you could, you just needed a cryptic account first
crashdragon @ Oct 2nd, 2012 5:00PM
Only decent bit was the 5,000 dilithium. The rest was a joke. Sold the so called " Rare " , and dumped the rest. Still thanks for the free cash Craptic/Perfect Fail. And the new bugs. =3
semkosemk @ Oct 2nd, 2012 4:46PM
i got the dilithium
ygyhuu @ Oct 2nd, 2012 1:19PM

ygyhuu

abdeziel9 @ Oct 2nd, 2012 1:10PM
So if you started after January 2012 you never had a Cryptic account; only Perfect World? I believe I have PWE given I found the game through there when I read some tweet that said it went FTP - I didn't have time to get the game when it originally went for sale.
irrapirthesecond @ Oct 2nd, 2012 12:08PM
How do I link my accounts? It never says that they are linked
askray
If you started playing after January you're on a PWE account anyways. If you're still using the option to login with a cryptic account then oyu can follow the account linking process which is listed above.
irrapirthesecond
Oh... well there go my chances of getting 5000 dilithium :-(
