Re: My CD key is too short
You need to understand that most of us here do not work for EA (the ones with EA in their name and the title commnity manager do), so we only CAN link you to threads that have been posted.
The community managers also only know what customer support decides to tell them and that seems to change a lot.
This maybe not the way it should be but that's how it is and we helpers (users like you) try to make the best of the situation as it is.
If you want a new key, only customer support can provide those and there seems to be conflicting info on how one needs to go about atm. With the weekend on the horizon, this is only going to be worse and believe me, I'm not looking forward to it.
We're trying to help the best that we can and if people start attacking us, well, we'll stopp and then no one will help you cause that's just how it is (again, not saying it should be that way).
So atm, you have two choices: Contact customer support and get a new key (there have been people that got working keys) or you wait until there's some kind of official word on this.
