"Take A Break From Gold" Feature

jkool666 · #1 03-15-2009, 04:20 PM

A handy feature to have would be something that stops taking "Gold" days off your account and makes you Trial.

For example, lets say your going a trip for 2 weeks. Graal is going to keep taking days off your Gold time while your gone. A waste of money in my opinion.

This feature would freeze the number of Gold Days you have left and during this time you would become a trial.

What does everyone think of this idea?

I think that's pretty cool, however people might freeze it for years and start playing and forget.

I think that it would work well in theory, but horribly in practical use, as it can easily be abused.

"Oh hey, I'm done playing for today, let's pause my subscription and go to bed!"

The current system is fine, where you can pause the monthly purchase of a new subscription.

That could be easily avoided, maybe by limiting it to 2-3 times in a year.

Or even better, having the minimum time frozen set to 7 days or something.

I think it's fine as it is, since most people pay by month. And how would freezing effect lifetime Classic accounts? I can see there being some fine print saying "oh, you lose classic if you do this"

I thought there was a way of "pausing" your subscription at current? I never really understood what that meant though, so I might be mistaken.

When you pause it, it will not automatically renew when it runs out (if you have enough gelats for it).

Are you ****** crazy? I don't see you paying Stefan anymore to pay. Does it say registered user under your name, do you have a green light to the right of your name? NO so stfu. Who in the hell are you to speak for a situation you don't have to deal with.
Me and the rest of the Graal4#%345345 have to continuing paying, so dont even say something like that, sudgesting to LIMIT my time.

Limit my time to freeze? **** that, lets put your *** on a gold account and let's see if you still feel the same.

and **** you too jloser666 for agreeing with him.

Your all lifetime classic so dont suddgest anything that takes more of MY money, while your not paying ****.

Great Idea

I believe a feature should be implicated.

Not the best way to get your point across....

Also, the green light simply means they are online at the time and the title under your user name can be changed in the CP....nothing special at all.
