And I'm sure the 3000 other people who preordered had to earn the money themselves as well.

I'm not convinced insults are being traded here but more a case of one or two people being frank about their opinions.

Buyers of the Standard Edition of the Pre-Order Program will get early access in December 2013
Your premium gets you a maximum of 5 weeks (and a few days) over those who preordered the standard edition, who then join in the alpha. A minimum of a week and a half.

I assume CloD was also alpha and beta tested?

For which I wholeheartedly retract my comment.
