Can someone please tell me specifically where and how to cancel my eq2
account. They make it impossible to quit. You can add stuff easy, but
quit? ...cannot find where to.

Click on the my account link from the eq2 website. Follow links to
view/edit billing. The option to cancel is there.

Just canceled my account an hour ago.=)

All in all - I had fun for the 3.5 months I played. Worth the $95 I spent
(box + 3 months subscription fees), but the game is not nearly good
enough to keep me long term.

Come on - be serious - you cant have looked very hard can you?

Start up EQ2, first screen where you put you password - notice the "my
account" option ?
Click it, select your account and it should be obvious even for the
most slow witted,

Come back if you have problems.

HTH
Cheers

then no game will be unless you go back to EQ1

WoW is painfully shallow

Sounds like you might be running into the same problem I had. I
started with EQ1, got a Station Pass when EQ2 came out so I could play
both, and decided (painful decision) to drop my Station Pass and just
play EQ2.

Turns out you can't downgrade from a Station Pass to just one game.
After poking around on my own for a while I called support, and talked
to a very pleasant person who told me that the way to do it was to
cancel my account completely, then start a new account when my
existing Station Pass ran out.

I did that, and by the end of the month had decided that I could live
w/o EQ 1 and 2 completely. Forcing customers to quit is probably not
the smartest thing Sony could do.

Hmm, I don't think they mean quit and have to start fresh, but,
rather, cancel, let the account run out, then renew it as a single
subscription account rather than stations pass. Honestly, the only way
you'd be able to quit and start a whole new account would be to buy a
new copy of the game, and I really don't see them making people do
that.

You're right, and I understood that he meant that I should cancel my
subscription, let it run out, then start it up again with the same EQ2
account.

But what happened was that Sony started in a situation where if I did
nothing, I kept paying them money every month, and ended up in a
situation where if I did nothing, my account vanished. That's a bad
move.
