When you suscribe, you can save money and start an agency... You can get the gear you want, the equipment you want, even the players you want to make it your own. If your suscribtion runs out, you can still stay there and use your equipment, your message board, and most of the perks of being in an agency.

If you save money and buy some tough gear, it's nice, it fits your detective just right. It's nice that you have invested in something good. Now if your suscribtion runs out, you still have the gear... No one comes over to you and says, sorry buddy but even though you paid for that, you can't use it anymore...

Well, I got the shock of a lifetime today. My suscribtion ran out today and I logged in as usual to go and see my message board in my appartment to see that I'm not allowed to go in as i'm not subed anymore...Now i've invested over a million dollars in my place to make it my own, unique style. It fits my detective to a tee. To make it worst, I have numerous items stored in my appartment worth a lot of money. The issue is not the resubing, as I'm planning to resub shortly but I feel that I was robbed here. I could have understood having my case file blocked like an agency but no access???

I can't help to feel like this is a double standard. It's ok if you do that with an agency but not with an appartment...I already have my answer from the Admin but frankly, i'm really disapointed in his response... I guess i could'nt keep this inside and needed to put it out there to see what the community thought.

Thanks for listening,

Raven.

While we're on the subject, I'd just like to remind everyone to familiarize themselves with this little paragraph below. I'm sure all of you who have subscribed before or have read the Subscription FAQ, have committed this to memory, but I’ll just post it here for a refresher:

Sleuth is an evolving game. When you purchase a subscription, you get the right to enjoy future updates throughout the length of your subscription. You also agree to abide by the rules of the game and accept any future rule changes enacted by Hypothetical Software.

I also want to point out that although we do have our personal favorite subbed and unsubbed detectives (yes, I’m talking about you), don’t expect that we will ever create some sort of complicated many-tiered system where we show favor based on some arbitrary formula of how many days your detective has been around or how long you have been subscribed divided by how many times you’ve been to visit Shady, multiplied by your how many times you’ve let your subscription lapse.

No, as Ben stated before, our primary responsibility lies with our paying subscribers (whether they are 2 days old or 2,000 days old). However, we don’t disvalue unsubscribed players. In fact, there are many unsubbed players and players who stick around for a long while before becoming subscribed (Dark Raven, Reda, etc.), who are very valuable to the community.
