19.4.5 IRON ELITE MEMBERSHIPS
Elite Memberships are an extremely good, cost-effective way for you to improve multiple characters. The value far exceeds our normal credit and lesson packages, especially when coupled with those packages. Please note that all of these benefits, the ability to transfer credits and similar, only apply to Lusternia - there is no crossover with the other Iron Realms games. Membership Benefits ------------------- DAILY LESSONS Every character registered to your email address, will earn 5 lessons, everyday, upon login. You will earn these lessons the instant you login. This will net you 150 lessons per month which is about 25 credits. If you have 10 characters, that is the equivalent of 250 credits per month in lessons. (Remember: The CHARACTERS command will list all your registered characters.) BOUND CREDITS Your account will earn 100 bound credits every month. These credits can be distributed across your characters with the command CREDITS MEMBERSHIP TRANSFER <amount>. In addition, you will accumulate 5 more credits every month you are on the membership. For example, after 5 months you will get 125 bound credits added to your account. This will top out at an additional 50 bound credits per month, totaling 150 bound credits. *Special:* If one of your characters is not flagged as permanent, they will be as soon as 200 membership credits are transferred to them. WONDER CRYSTALS! The character that you sign up for an Iron Elite membership with will receive one wonder crystal per month. A wonder crystal is a special item that can be used to create unique artifacts. See HELP WONDER ITEMS. PERMANENT CREDIT BONUS You will have a permanent 10% bonus to all credit purchases while on the membership. In other words, members will have a permanent sale running. This bonus will stack with any other sale we run. EXPERIENCE BONUS We expect most elite members will be established players that have already enjoyed leveling their characters. As such, we are offering an experience bonus to all members. This is a monthly, 5% cumulative bonus (up to 25%). For example, for the first month you will enjoy a 5% XP bonus. For the second month you will have a 10% XP bonus. In month five you will have a 25% bonus. Of course, this bonus will stack with any other bonuses you enjoy. Extended Memberships -------------------- If you wish to sign up for longer-term memberships, you can now buy 3, 6 or 12 months all at once! To find out how to transfer an existing membership over to this system, read Announce News 2997. Membership Notes ---------------- Elite Memberships have a recurring payment. In order to sign up for the program you will have to agree to payments. You can do so by visiting the URL below and clicking the "Elite Monthly Membership" link: http://www.lusternia.com/Credits Cancelling your membership: PayPal: You can cancel your membership at anytime by logging into PayPal and cancelling the membership. If you are having trouble with that, feel free to email jeremy@ironrealms.com for assistance. Credit Card Processor: You can cancel your membership online at http://www.lusternia.com/credits?action=cancel Seconds Abuse: Remember that we track characters if they are logged in at the same time from the same registration. So if you plan on switching all your friends to the same email address, you will effectively be limiting them to never being able to play at the same time. Additionally, you will never be able to move them off the same registrations, which will give them the ability to change the registration info and effectively steal all your characters. Not to mention we will permanently block the accounts and characters of people found to be cheating. In short, do not try to abuse this, we will find out pretty quickly.
