When will those who have perm accounts receive their Unbound plat?

The real question is why is HCS, so intent on giving back plat ($8400 worth to be exact) and let dead accounts sit around. It makes no sense. <_<

I do kind of agree with both sides, not my place to argue though.

I am not sure when it is tghowcroft it should not be long, I know Zorg is busy the next few days so either next week or the week after would be my guess :)

I disagree we should let old accounts stay around..

It creates a fake picture of the game when advertising players.

And if they didnt give back the plat people would complain like hell.

Well yeah we paid for it, we should atleast get something in return, it took me a whole summer to save up for a perm account.

Well.....theres a few things on this. Yes, the players that dont get deleted will sit around and obviously wont be active...however....by not deleting old players who go inactive, we are creating a larger playerbase allowing more pvp to take place and hopefully reducing the amount of complaints about not being able to get any kills because avatars take them all.

Now, this is the main reason I see it happening, and probably the one I like most. The thing I dislike most about it, is it begins to take up player names, and if a player goes inactive with a name you would prefer (It happens on tons of games I try to play where a character has the name Albel but hasn't played for years) you're just left finding a different name. Now, I know it really wont affect many people, but it's something I liked about Legacy, always filtering through players and clearing out the old.

Also....bcfc, you should know when we get our platinum, it will be Bound. I can guarentee that. Which basically takes away any value it has. Bound platinum is worthless, where Unbound could at least be used to get Credits (Not that those are really needed either) so they're both kinda worthless....so giving back platinum, I doubt HCS has any issue with that.

Anyway, for the most part I'd say I'm in favor of this decision.


*On a side note though, I would say that if a player doesn't manage to reach "Minimum" level 10 before they quit playing, to just let them be deleted after the 80 days. There really isn't much to work from at that point.
