So I went to check the dev blogs today and I read about the free implant. Apparently the window has passed on it but I can't understand why they need to have the window so small? I was even logged in during those dates and simply didn't know about the redeem system. Is there some reason the redeem can't be turned on permanently as soon as your account goes active due to plex/subscription?

Not their fault you don't pay attention.

this is main idea of those gifts: get you online.
And other: it is simplier to make 1 redeem button for 1 gift than make several buttons. Because without time limits we will have people who collects those gifts for years.

This isn't really a question for the players to answer, but speaking as someone who bought quite a few CA-1s I'd like to extend my personal thanks for your help in making my investment that little bit more valuable.

I was online several times during the time window though. There wasn't even an email/popup telling me that I could redeem this and the redeem button isn't exactly somewhere you'll ever notice it.

I just click on my character and log in. As far as I knew there was no reason to even look at that screen. Even if I did know I'm fairly certain I'd never see that button.

The redeem button not being greyed out sort of is the pop up.

So where is the CA-2?

Do not assume anything above this line was typed by me. Nerf the Truth, it's inconvenient.

Wouldn't it be devious if it was dropped only by a CCP fleet? Twisted
But meh, it arrives one day. The later the better = Less CA-1's around.
