Looking at the date you registered on the forums you might not be elligible.

08-14-2004 does not a veteran make.


Sorry if that's the case.

Indeed if you registered on the forums near or at the time you registered for the game, you are not a veteran my friend. Vet rewards start at SIX months.

Probably a stupid question that is answered somewhere in the boards, but can I delete the yacht from my data pad and make a new one in the future should I want to since I still have the deed?

Oh, and yes, if you make a new character right now they'll be eligable for the same rewards you are. Those are based on your account time, not character time like the life day stuff was.






Thanks for the reply - I am glad somebody cleared up that last part about making a new character-

I think we all have a few questions about the new Vet reward system - so I'll start with my own list and maybe you can help me and then I can help you answer your questions.


First, what are these Holonet terminals. One is a news terminal and one is a tracking terminal - but what purpose do they have? Are they just furniture or can you actually interface with them?


Second, If I create a new character on another server right now will that character be eligable for the rewards? I have been playing since launch (June 2003).


Third, how exactly will accepting the rewards take place - will you get a "x" month reward every "x" months? Or do you only get one and then you're stuck with it?


Fourth, how much do you think that these rewards will start to be sold for on the galaxy trade forums. Personally I feel that it is a good and bad thing to make them tradeable/sellable. Good because it will allow those who will never use the items to now get rid of them - and bad because it will take from the meaning of the 'vet reward' itself.


The last question I have, is are these reward on test center now? I saw the test center notes that had the 'vet reward' system in the same thread as the other in-testing changes, but they were highlighted (not sure why). Just would like someone to clarify that for me.


Please post any of your questions here and hopefully we can compile our own little FAQ Guide for the vet reward system.


Thanks,

Reading the devs posts...

First, what are these Holoneterminals. One is a news terminal and one is a tracking terminal - but what purpose do they have? Are they just furniture or can you actually interface with them? -- Just for decortation.

Second, If I create a new character on another server right now will that character be eligable for the rewards? I have been playing since launch (June 2003). -- Yes, but you can only claim the award once, unlike the yacht.

Third, how exactly will accepting the rewards take place - will you get a "x" month reward every "x" months? Or do you only get one and then you're stuck with it? -- After 3 months you get to choose 1 three month reward, after 6 months you can choose 1 three or sixth month reward, 12 months you can choose 1 three,six,twelve month reward and after another 12 months you can choose one three,six,twelve month reward.

Fourth, how much do you think that these rewards will start to be sold for on the galaxy trade forums. -- As high as they can go, probably no less then a few million credits each.

The last question I have, is are these reward on test center now? -- No idea

If you do claim the reward on that new character though, you can't also claim it on any other character from that account.

According to the Dev tracker, they are planningfor a new category of24 month rewards too.
