Dont waste your time with online games that you have to pay for. Sierra Freestyle Basketball knew what they were doing to sucker all the people into playing for money. They SCAMMED us all.. Sierra sucks, i spent over $400 dollars on that game, and now im left with nothing. I will never play another online game again that i have to pay for. If you have to pay more money after you already pay for a game once, a red flag should go up…Lesson learned.. We got scammed, we should file a Lawsuit with the Attorney General to all get out money back…

Dear All Veteran Former Sierra FSSB Players,

Has anyone else been wondering “who ran away with this money?” FSSB was closed in September unexpectedly without a lead time on when this was to happen. I invested many bills for this game and I have not received a clear answer to what happened. The website never explained as well. I would like to take the time to post what I have been sending out, I would love to hear everyone’s opinion for this matter. Even though it may not be the responsibility of Gamekiss, I think it is Gamekiss’ responsibility to let me post this article. I would still like to stand up for all the players that invested “bills” into this game, then the day after the accounts were terminated. Here is what I have been sending out to Sierra and Gamekiss. Please post your opinions here!!

To Whom It May Concern,

I have been a fan of this game since last year. Last year, this game closed unexpectedly in September, leaving my account deleted with no warning or response from the staff which made me very upset. I did spend a few hundred dollar on the currency known as “bills” in the game. This is a subscription service that was provided as a means of entertainment, which was closed, not by bankruptcy or any form of government intervention which leaves the question, “who ran away with this money?”. I would like to dispute the charges that were incurred from purchasing items in this game, leaving the fans out of the loop and I can almost guarantee that there are many people who have had the same issue. There needs to be an opinion brought out here which has not been made clear yet and I am and I am contemplating a class action lawsuit on who ever is responsible for the losses If I do not hear from the proper authorities. There are many minorities who play this game, but there are educated adults on this site as well that monitor this game and/or have children who play.

Please explain to me the details of why this happened as well as who is responsible for this. If this does not apply to Gamekiss, please forward this to the persons responsible. Also if you any contact information you have would be much appreciated. You can reach me at this e-mail or my cell phone at (xxx) xxx-xxxx. I look forward to hearing your response. I am a long time fan of the game, but I would like feedback instead of being left in the dark. As for the Gamekiss staff, I think it’s great that you are bringing the game back to life.

Sincerely,

xxxxx xxxxx

Because you dumb butts you can singup without email. If u delete ur cherecter u need to start a new, think how do u start it? Open new account. That why there is more that million accounts.
Lots of people like this game, u can just delete all the account and if u want to singup opne a email! (You didnt think about that?)

ok for about a month and a half i knew something was wrong name change is gone then bills which is the primary sorce of money for the game. It is my wish for that somebody who loved the game to come up with the same type game i would pay $100.00 to play freestyle or a game like it if would let me be with the friends i made from alpha to full fssb i played for so long i spent 20.00 to go pro and the about 200.00 on bils for a good reason. I like the idea of Chating in the lobby, playing with friends and reading wat people had to say about their team when they were losing. If i could have Just 1 wish it would to be able to play FSSB again.

“OK, i wrote player guides for this game. Took a weekend of my life. And then for the 16 months of this game i played everyday of it since Alpha version. I HAVE SPENT WAYYY TO MUCH MONEY ON IT. I think i spent the most amount of money on this game compared to anybody else who played it. I developed so many friendships on this game it was rediculous. Whatever its not that big of a deal though bc instead of this game.. i have spent more time on my studies and now im on High Honor Roll (97 avg now).”

For anyone that reads this and wishes to do something about the SCAM that sierra has pulled on us, you can write to me at my email address: brian2017@yahoo.com - my name is brian, anyway i have to say i haven’t played the game since september and today which is 11/16/08 i tried to play it, and it wasnt loading so i thought i might have to re-install it, so i went to yahoo and put in the words “freestyle street basketball” and clicked on it, and all it was was a page saying that the servers have been shut down, this is total bullshit, many many people spent hundreds of dollars pying for upgrades and bills, i have to say i spent more than $ 300.00 over the course of a year. This is totally bogus. I tell you what we all can do, is Take these assholes to court in a CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT and get our money back. If any of you are intrested, please email me, and we need to egt petitions going as well, also what you can do is CALL SIERRA and harass them , and tell them you want a refund of your money. What i also dont understand is that company is a MULTI-BILLION DOLLAR company, why would they cut there money supply off from there customers. WE NEED ANSWERS, - I AM OUTRAGED..LETS DO SOMETHING about SIERRA and FREESYTLE STREET BASKETBALL !!!!!! IM MAD AS HELL< and im not gonna take anymore!

this is outrageous, I spent many bills for this game and they take it offline? I want my money back. I think this can bring up some legal issues. Everyone who spent bills for this game should stand up.

That is strange that they have just eliminated the game all together with a million accounts.
