I am starting to hate Credit Cards. Seriously!
Or, to be more specific: Webpages that will allow you to buy stuff ONLY with a Credit Card.
I hate that!
I don't have one, I don't know ANYONE who has one, so I'm screwed every time I find out that you need one of them.
Sometimes these pages have a "Chose your Payment method" category, but there is only one *insertcursehere* option! What's the point of that? Why would you give me a choice if I actually don't have a choice at all?! Just say so and don't fool me into thinking that I have a choice on the matter so that I don't need to spend my time filling out formulars only to find out that it was a waste of time later!
Or here is an even better Idea: actually give the customer a choise in that matter!
I don't ask for like a million diffrent ways, but just two would be enough. You have a choice there, if you can't take either one...well, that's to bad but at least you have a choice and therefor a better chance of getting something done. If there is just one single way (like, I don't know, a Credit Card) and you don't get that, you're screwed. It's like "Sorry, but we don't care about you folks, now f* off."

I seem to run into that a lot lately, especially with Fan merchandise that you can get only on 'that' website. And 'that' website usually only takes Credit Cards.
Example: I see a DVD I really want to have, but I cant get it: Credit Card. Next time, diffrent page: Great fan T-Shirt! I'd love to buy it so to show of that I'm a fan and support the Guy with money and advertising (on the T-Shirt) ...but i can't, since it's only a Credit Card again. Then: great game, been looking for that for ages! And it actually gives me a choice between Paypal and Credit Cards! I can actually get it this time but -OH NO!- the Paypal function doesn't work at all, gotta use the Credit Card. Again!
WTF?!
I hate this!
Why Credit Cards of all things?! Why not have more options so that more people could buy your stuff? Why pretending to have options when there are none? It's just...!

Grngrgraaaaah!!


...Sorry for the rant, I just need to get rid of that frustration somehow <<
Friendship is born at that moment when one person says to another: "What! You, too? Thought I was the only one." (C.S. Lewis)
For the time you're laughing, there's nothing wrong in the world. (Colin Mochrie)
If it's funny, make sure people laugh. If it's not funny, make it funny (unless it's actually really serious). (silvercheers)

Please don't spell my name "Yamina-chan". It's all small. Thank you =D

No credit card here either. But I can buy stuff at Amazon.com through a secured banking system. Not EVERYTHING can work with it, but most stuff.

Hello guys, I am at home. My REAL home, hehe. Back for just two days.
I would like to hang around here more... but my days are really really full. I can't stop from 6:30 am to 11:00 pm... and I need to sleep to be able to be awake at work the following day...
I haven't received my first paycheck yet... that will be interesting XD

I hug you all!

My Mind: America is getting hit by a lot of EF5's. It's like what the hell? Those spawn like once a year. Now we get 5 in 1 day. I guess the 2012 thing maybe true at this rate. Thankfully the Super volcano under the United States is calm. Whoa, wait a minute...

My Mind: Hybrida's previous signature said he lost all the stuff on his hard drive and wasn't going to be on for a while. Glad he's back

Yeah well. I would've made a thread about it, but who cares about millionaires going through hard times? Yeah, I'm back. As for my data, not so much. I'm waiting on a flash drive with back up data. My friends are mailing me one. I'm using online storage for now on. No Electro-Magnetic pulse will defeat me. Again.

I gotta quit hooking up with married women. My jaw and fists hurt way too much. I think I'm getting too old for this crap.
