Was wondering if it was possible to get Preliminary update notes for next patch and if you could explain in a bit more detail how a Vet account works, how pricing/cost will be effected after 60 days etc.
It appears there is lots of confusion on this new paid feature (I for one am a bit lost about it).
Nice post, cool info
Don't really have a rush on seeing that video (altough I seem to be alone on this :P), the first on already showed the engine has potential.
Have a nice weekend!

So does this XP change mean that I can safely do things like Dark Ruins on my 150 S10 twink and not worry about getting leveled to 151 now?
Then at 220/70 will we be accumlating SK in this pool as well? So that the day yo do add more levels we can start using it? Maybe make research take the bonus SK/XP hit if you have pool?

Very cool. Any chance of turning a current account into a vet account of another one? I'm sure I'm not alone in wanting to do so from the way this sounds.
I went to the registration page and the info could be a bit more detailed. There was no new info I could see in the account FAQ of the AO site either.
- I presume there is no standard initial fee other than the paid points cost, correct?
- Would the vet account subscription be paid with or separately from the main account?
- Any added savings on subscription rates with this or would standard subscription costs apply for each?
- If/when added boosters or such things are added would we need to get them for both separately or would they apply to the vet account if we get it for the main?
Typical. Annoying how the decade this relates to keeps ticking higher.
Sounds good. All that and the new stuff mentioned last week is coming along nicely I hope.
Cool. This would actually be a reverse of what's happening now in some regards. Now if you kill something while you have an XP pool and "disable XP gains" turned on the XP that would have been removed from your pool had "disable XP gains" not been turned on is still removed. As a result your XP pool steadily shrinks, especially if a well meaning crat hits you with the recovery rate perk. From what a GM told me this is a bug, he and I both did a bug report for it. That was a number of months back though.

I would be happy to apply for the CSR job, since I actually live close to Durham and could make the drive back and forth. The only problem is the job is full time and I'm currently going to college. That makes my time constraints difficult. I could definitely do full time during summers and breaks, but during the school year would be a little bit tough.

I pay for four accounts. Yes, four. It's not unusual when I dual log and triple log myself to be at least half the toons on the org bot. I'm not sure I understand exactly what is meant by a sub-account. Am I getting another way to team myself and pay for it? Do I have the option of having the "Veteran Account" replace my "current" account? Is this a way of getting another account that has the prepaid items/boosters/paid points that the "current" accounts has? Could we get some clarification? It's just to get the new mech so we can stand around the cities looking cool and not doing anything?
We need to lure old players back and get new players in. At this point in time, I can't say that there's enough of a player base for me to want to renew my subscriptions, much less pay for a sub account to my account. You can only team yourself so far, then there's no where else to go. I have some prof's that can't get teamed and some that can at the drop of an /lft. But, with the community we have, I can't get the teams I need for the things I would like to have. I can't see paying another subscription fee to be unable to access content I'm already paying for that I can't get because there's too few players that want access to the content that I want access too. (I just wanted the thrill of a run-on sentence. It felt goooood.)
I do like the idea of being able to move toons between accounts. Can't say I'd spend the cash to consolidate all my toons onto one account so I can stop paying for all of them. But, then again I can't say that I'm getting enough enjoyment out of my subscriptions to continue with them. But, since I pay yearly on three of them I have a while to decide.
More anniversary items. Yay. I like those. Can't have enough of those. I need a bag for my head. I'm embarrassed I pay for so many accounts. I will be wearing that.
I just feel like those of us that have held on for years are gettin' all potatoes and no meat. Where's the beeeeef?! I'm not a vegetarian! These potatoes are too Asian!

You most definitely are not alone! I just turned my second account (fr00b) to paid and would love to be able to move some characters off of my main account to the new one. Please provide a service for converting accounts to be a sub-account.
Another option would be a paid service to buy another 'active slot' on an account, allowing more than one toon to be logged at a time?

Good to see the Game Director treating the game as an actual bussiness. All those proposed changes are revenue making and doesnt have a real impact on game-playing. Thats really nice. Now about the the salary of those suffering ur constant contact by being FC employes? means lowing my accounts too?
