Gold Accounts are now given out as Items instead of time being added to your account. You can still purchase up to twelve months, and there is an item for each. To get your gold account, you just click on the item in your items, and click Activate Gold Account.
This is to decrease the amount of scamming related to selling GAs.
If you purchase gold accounts via snail mail, you will be given the item, instead of time being added to your account.
Also, if you were waiting for time to be added to your GA (you purchased more months) you will be getting a medal in your items sometime tonight.

Thank you for supporting subeta. :)

I never got a trophy or a GA Avatar,do you not get one when you purchase off other users?

Wow, this is ingenius! Whoever came up with this idea is simply brilliant! I ordered my GA through Snail Mail about three weeks ago and I cannot wait for it to arrive! 8D

Just a question,Do we not get trophys when we buy these off other users?

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by Deleted User

D: i sent a letter with my money order about a week and a half ago.. XD; so.. will i get an item too? and.. i don't understand the medal thing. oO;

This is awesome, the best idea on Subeta yet, thanks to the user Ocean, for sugesting it

It restarts the clock I believe. I had 1 day left before my gold account expired so I figured why not and activated it. ;x Now I have exactly one month till expiery. So definitely -- vault it, don't activate it right away. n.n;

I don't think it's going to skyrocket the prices at all. If anything, because it's easier, more may be available, which would bring down the prices.

I wouldn't think that would happen,because somewhere along the line,there's a person paying real money for the Gold account Medal that you purchase =) (Sorry,I know,should have put this in my first post )

It confused me at first, but it's a great idea! I was just thinking of 'gifting' someone with a month's worth. ^^
And I agree, as long as the Rogue doesn't swipe it or the zapper mangles it, it should be a cool item! Luff it!

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by Deleted User

Haha, nice idea!

Speaking of gold accounts, I really ought to save up for one.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by PinkSylvie

It's actually great for both, the sellers and the buyers, now you are sure that when you offer on a gold account medal, you will actually get the gold account. And it's easier for the sellers, who just have to purchase a medal and sell it in the trades or auctions

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by Deleted User

wow this is cool. So instead of just giving up the sps or whatever to purchase a GA you can get the medal out of trades so that you know you are getting for sure and then you can activate it yourself. I think this is a very good idea ^^

Brillant Idea! Love it! Makes it safer for those that want to help people by buying GAs for other players, and those that need to have them bought for them

Way to go, Staff.

That is awesome I love the idea. I'll have to wait a month to get one though as my gold account was starting this morning. I'll still buy one sometimes this week and I'll save it until my gold account expire. Thanks for making it that way

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by Deleted User

Awesome. Ocean's idea was used. :3

You have to search "# Month Gold Account Medal" in trades to get it come up... where '#' is the number of months you're interested in.

The Gold Account Medal appears in the buyer's inventory. So, those of us who sell them to other users can now purchase them ahead of time and then place them in trades.

Because one medal can represent up to a certain number of months, if you want to buy more than one month at a time, I recommend you work it out with your buyer ahead of time so they can purchase the one medal with the multiple months for you instead of having more than one medal worth 1 month each.

I'm not sure how the medals work as far as adding on time or restarting the clock. I just bought one, but I didn't activate it because I still have a full month left. I'll try it out later this month to see how it works.

I have two questions regarding this:

What if your parents said no for you to buy your own Gold Account. So you buy it from someone else? Would you pay for the medal so the person can buy you the gold account?

Also, is this like a normal item? Like something the new zapper could change into a slime or goop?

When I searched Gold Account in trades, it said there was no such item.

When I was a newbie, when I thought of purchasing gold accounts from another user, I thought of it as an item. AND THIS IS GREAT! But might it reduce a number of the money subeta gets to pay for the site?

Good question Tracy.

Would it add the time to it, or should you just vault the item till your current GA runs out?

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by Deleted User

So when you purchase it with a paypal account, it's automatically put into your inventory? No need to verify with a reciept or go thruogh all that trouble to get one?
