It appears there is some confusion concerning the upcoming Veteran Rewards system that is part of Live Update #16. I'll attempt to answer the following questions in this post:

How do we calculate how much time counts toward your Veteran Rewards?

What happens if you converted to Station Access after being subscribed normally, and your account activation time changed?
Will I be able to get the gifts for past months when the system goes live?
How many times can you /claim the gifts?
Are the experience bonus potions permanent?

How do we calculate how much time counts toward your Veteran Rewards?

The amount of time you are entitled to is determined by the number of days your subscription has been active in total. This is cumulative, so for every day your subscription is active, it adds a day to your total number of active days. This applies to accounts using both the standard subscription as well as Station Access. If you deactivate your account, any days that the account was deactivated will simply not count toward your total.

Example: If you were subscribed for 3 months, unsubscribed for 2 months, and subscribed again for 3 months, you would be considered a 6 month veteran.

What happens if you converted to Station Access after being subscribed normally, and your account activation time changed?

The total amount of time that your account was active either as a standard account or Station Access account will count toward your total time. It doesn't matter if the creation date changed when you switched over to Station Access.

Example: If you had a standard EQII account for 6 months and switched to Station Access for the next 6 months, you would be entitled to a year.

Will I be able to get the gifts for past months when the system goes live?

You will be able to /claim any rewards that you were eligible for in the past when the Veteran Rewards system goes live.

Example: If your account has been active for 1 year when this goes live, you'll receive the gift for 1 day, 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, and 1 year.

How many times can you /claim the gifts?

Veteran Rewards can be claimed on up to 3 characters per account, so be sure which characters you want to have access to these items.

Are the experience bonus potions permanent?

The Adventure and Tradeskill potions will not be permanent. I'd rather not go into numbers as far as duration and such are concerned, as these numbers are still being adjusted internally before we go live with the rewards.

That should take care of most of the questions I've seen so far. If I see any other hot ones, I'll try to get them answered as well.

Such an SOE thing to say. They REALLY need a new PR representative.

He says he doesnt want to talk numbers because there are no defined numbers as of the time of his answering of the question. How else would ya say that wihtout giving numbers (as there are none to give!)?

Good job SOE, ignore Warlock X!
