I know its annoying to miss something but that's just how it is. I am not sure if I saw it on the French site or the English one but I am pretty sure when I was looking at it if I wanted to order it I could have. I have even just tried to order another server from the French site and it let me so it more than likely could have been ordered.
The same could also apply to the Kimi 1's. they are in stock for 10 - 20 minutes in the early hours of the morning so all of the Americans get to them before the English or French. Just have to keep checking and then you will no doubt get one.

Yes hindsight is a wonderful thing as I am sure you would agree however I don't think it is particularly helpful to label certain forum users as 'children' just because they did not check quick enough and mentioned it here.
For those children, that like to complain, game server were available 20.6.2014 - so everybody had a fair chance of getting one, if he looked at the right time on SYS website.

Only a limited amount you can openly see when we last delivered a server in this range

If everything goes well, you can get one - NOT BETA - in two weeks. What's your problem?
It is against the law to refuse a sale to a customer living in another EU country. You should be able to get on their French site and buy there. Unfortunately it only applies to individual customers, they have a right to refuse sale to a company. And giving how soviet like bureaucracy is in the EU, this law is practically dead.

SoYouStart is a company. They act first in their own interst (nothing wrong about that) and you are complaining because of your selfishness? Grow up.

heise, I see you have made your way over to this forum too?
P.s someone should make a game server availability checker if its going to be that popular

Hi Jasgriff, jep climbing the stairs. For my taste
http://forum.kimsufi.com/showthread....l=1#post153899 would suffice, but I guess you are right.

I'm pretty sure they've been in stock a few times, unless I'm thinking of another range.

Yes, he could keep checking the relevant pages until a server is available again. However, that is not the point. The servers were sold out before anyone outside from France could order it (because you have to order from the site of your country)... It's a bad way of serving customers, they should've translated all sites before releasing the public BETA...

Just wondering when your going to add more and how this is fair for not just the UK but the rest of Europe what you wait until there sold out before adding it to the EN version of the soyoustart.com website ?
So keep checking the relevant pages and get the service when its available?
Well, that's why it is called BETA. They are still testing it. It is not ready for the public. So you asked?
