I just got a message from a buddy on PSN.

Appearantly, its going around that Sony wants to start charging for PSN in January, but if they recieve 500,000 protest signatures by Jan they wont.

Is this true or not?

I would ignore it. Unless it's an official source, it's more than likely a load of bumffff.

Do you really think that is going to happen? Do you see what happens to companies who offer something for free and then start charging for it? It's in a lot of "agreements" that people don't read that whatever service you sign up for is free for the time but you can be charged. How often do you actually see companies start to charge? That stunt would probably enrage a lot of users and they would get a lot of hatemail up the wazoo.

This has been happening ever since they added that cut and paste feature. If you don't know that friend you should delete him.

As long as there are people there to believe even the most ridiculous of chain letters, they will never stop spreading amongst the unknowing masses

Let's set some basic rules here.

- If someone says something will happen when _____ recieve the message, it's fake.

- If someone says you get a beta key for sending the message, it's fake.

- If someone says this or this will change unless _____ people recieve/send the message, it's fake.

Really, anything recieved like that on your PS3 is not true.

Only believe what Playstation sends you, through your e-mail

I'm sure I've had this exact same message months ago only changed to like Sep or Nov or something. In any case, it's just another stupid chain letter you see like in emails and whatnot.

Even worse, I have friends and roomates from back in college that were spamming me with the stupid "Send this message to 20 people and you're auto-accepted into the MW2 beta!!!!" (or something to that effect) chain mail.

I got that stupid message from at least a half a dozen people :cry:
