Okay, this is kinda crappy...(About Subscription Center)

Okay..How come there is no option for just ViP for new subscribers? I have an account that hasn't been upgraded before and I want it to be VIP...I don't want Graal Gold access because I hate the Gold servers. How come there is no Classic + VIP option? I'll pay like 19-25 bucks for it...I just hate Gold, so I don't think I should have to pay for something I don't want.

I know it says VIP is upgrade only, but that's a little unfair and it shouldn't be like that. ;\

There must be, considering some people have got VIP but not gold. And it only says 'upgrade' as it sees you as having gold so it would be an addition to you.

And why have VIP/Classic? You get classic when VIP expires dont you.

melissa1988 · #3 05-21-2003, 08:03 PM

Because you have to purchase the classic membership to get anything here. You can't just get classic alone, you have to have something else tacked on to it, which is stupid, but oh well...I wouldn't mind buying a VIP membership, but I don't want Gold, and with the current scheme, I have to do this unless I upgrade an account that's been upgraded before. I want VIP for a totally new account.

VIP is really only if you want to have just forum access and new features access along with your lifetime Classic.

If your account was before this entire VIp thing (and classic lifetime thing) then you probably have to upgrade to just Classic, then after you might get a VIP option to tack onto that

I'll explain this.

Before you can get gold, you must have classic. You could purchase them at the same time, but who would if you don't like the gold servers? I am sure you wouldn't.

Anyway, after that, you decide to like Graal and want some new features. You want a VIP account. You buy it. You get VIP + 3 months free to gold servers. I'm not sure if that is still avaible, since VIP is the exact same thing as gold now, except your more special.

melissa1988 · #6 05-21-2003, 10:02 PM

But why not have a Classic+VIP option? It's bad enough they took away the Classic+3 months gold offer, as I might have settled with that...If you didn't release...you can't buy a classic only subscription. All I want is VIP and classic...why can't this be offered?

Holy crap, I didn't know your signature was animated.

Buy Classic, the gold with it is free. Then buy VIP.

That's just stupid though. Why should he/she buy Gold when he/she doesn't want it?

Listen.

Read the post above you, you get the gold time free with the Classic subscription, so technically, you're not paying for the gold.

zell12 · #11 05-22-2003, 01:51 AM

THE GOLD WITH THE CLASSIC SUBSCRIPTION IS FREE

superb · #12 05-22-2003, 05:34 AM

Hey stupid people, maybe if you'd actually look at the Subscription plans, YOU DO PAY FOR GOLD. The Classic + 3 Months Gold NO LONGER EXISTS. The only option is a Classic Membership with 6 MONTHS GOLD Membership. The price is 28 dollars. The old plan was 19 dollars. You ARE paying for Gold no matter how much you piss and moan saying that you don't.

Admins · #13 05-22-2003, 03:58 PM

Classic + a few months gold is the base prize, on top you can buy VIP. VIP is for people who are already involved in Graal and want to spend some more money for things like getting preview versions.

superb · #14 05-22-2003, 04:34 PM

But what I think they are saying Stefan is that it's not fair for people who don't want to purchase Graal Gold. Not everyone is into the roleplaying style of the Gold servers and would rather play the hack n slash type gameplay that the classic servers offer. Why must people who want to play Classic be forced to also pay for Graal Gold when they are never going to play Gold servers? And why not offer just a basic classic membership? You could probably boost sales that way.

Also, just because a person gets a new account does NOT mean that they have not been involved with Graal before. All's I'm sayin' is you guys would probably get more business if you offered a more competitive pricing package that gave people features they actually want rather than forcing them to buy things they don't want in able to get the features they do want.

Better solution: Have a wider variety of fun Gold servers.
