Besides customer service being a rude joke, they act like they still own it after you fork over your 3,4,5 hundred bucks.
One guy told how he installed it on his pc, it crashed so he replaced it. I have to take that as he had all new hardware and OS and consequently a new registry. Yet he couldn't install his RS on the new PC. According to him it had already been activated.
Well even if it has to be activated thru their website you can better well believe if I pay 400+ bucks for something I better be able to reinstall it as often as I need to. Screw these people. |

I posted this reply late Saturday afternoon but the forum went on Holiday and it apparently didn't take so here it is again.
Appreciate the help AV, hate to bust your bubble but I found a review of Mango (granted 2008, lot's of time to improve) but for now it still looks like a subscription to Rosetta Online might still be the way to go.

Still don't know if there are daggers and booby traps with RS Online though. I'll be contacting Rosetta via email later tonight and see what if any response I get. _________________

Ah. I got into Mango when it first came out as an invitation-only beta and FREE! Looks like you have to pay now. Although a review from 2008 will be incredibly outdated with the rate of growth it's achieved.
