    do you think everyone 17+ has a credit card?

     

    Everyone 17+ that lives in the real world has one, yes.

    The people with no jobs, or horribly in debt, should not be playing MMO's.  My statement stands.

    Actually,  credit cards are for financially illiterate people... and that would be most people unfortunately.  I have a dang good job, a large bank account, and absolutely ZERO debt.  So your statement if false.

     

    And probably a credit score in the high 400's or low 500's?  Maybe even 0 if you have no credit history?

    Actually thinking about it, if you have had no credit experience at all, you'd be hardpressed to find anyone to let you sign for anything.  No credit is worse than bad credit

    Ok,  last reply to you as you are clearly ignorant when it comes to finances.  My credit score is over 700.  I don't own a single credit card.  I didn't say I have never been in debt.  I am just no longer in debt.  My house, my car, my everything is paid for.  All done without a credit card.  Don't bother replying as it is clear you have no idea what you are talking about.  I could explain it to you but there is no doubt my words would be falling on deaf ears.  This isn't the place to talk about it anyway.

    Stop being ignorant and try to be helpful. If you do not have something to add than you shouldn't post as you aren't mature enough to play this game. I am 21 and do not own a credit card because I do not need one and prefer to pay things with cash. On the flip side I can easily call my parents and ask them if I can use their credit card to play the game and front them the money for it.

     

     

    Yes a credit card is required if you do not wish to use prepaid cards or other payment plans they have listed on their site.

     

    I obviously had something to add, or I wouldn't have posted.  I'm not sure exactly where you intended to go with this?

    Anyway, if you are 21 and do not own a credit card, I'd emplore you to get one as soon as possible.  And then start making small purchases on it, paying it off each month.  So many things in this country require a good credit score for you to just ignore it.  There was a time, when it was feasable and entirely common to pay for a major purchase entirely in cash.  But those days are long gone.

    
    And again...  your plan for building credit with a CC is horrible advice.  To any young people out there thinking of getting a CC to build credit... DON'T DO IT!  Trust me,  don't fall into that trap.  Everybody's CC debt nightmare stories start off the same... "I starting making small purchases and paying it off each month"....  It doesn't work!  There are other ways.  If you don't own a CC then the best advice I can give you is learn to live without on.

    Sorry for going off-topic but I saw an opportunity to do my good deed for the day.  :P  My work here is done.

    Um... how is this even a discussion. I have tried EVE,WoW,LoTR,MxO,and CoH all without a credit card. On this very website EVE states that no CC is needed. Actually a way they restrict unlimited free trials is by emailing you the activation code. Once you use a trial code, you can't use another for that account. Of course you can make multiple accounts but you can never make any progress because you will never be able to use your characters.

    
    Wrong.  Apparently you have never played the game.  Creating multiple accounts would be a valid greifing option in WWIIOL and I care not to go into detail as in why.  Just take my word for it I guess or try the game and see.  WWIIOL is not about character progress,  its war.

    If I could just make other accounts to continue free trial I would.... I would never have to ask for a tow or ride again.
