A quick question... I was under the impression in spending usd, no only did you get a account of a low number, soulstones, etc... but that it was also considered an upgraded account. Getting in on the ground floor, so to speak, having a perm upgrade. When I look at my account, I see that it is just a regular account. What is the difference in the two and wouldn't these alpha accounts be upgraded? I think it makes sense the way it is: it costs $25 (or $20) to buy an alpha account. $10 (or $5) of that pays for having a low-ID account and being one of the first to play the game. The other $15 pays for your starting 15 Soulstones. Since 15 Soulstones can get you a 6-month upgrade, it wouldn't make sense to pay only $10 or $5 more to get a permanent upgraded account. Also, nowhere has it been said that these accounts would be upgraded, so I'm not sure where you got that idea. I think the idea came from the fact that most sites, when they have alpha account sales, the alpha accounts come forever upgraded, and they get access to pets and items no other user can, but then again, they also don't get the currency that can buy them an upgrade, either.

Like Effigy said, in paying USD you get an alpha account - a low id, starter account on the game. These accounts include 15 soulstones - which is enough for one custom at alpha prices (10 soulstones each) and one month of upgraded time (3 soulstones, which would leave you with two extra soulstones), or a six-month upgrade.
There has never been any mention of upgraded time as something that comes with an alpha account on Wunderkin. How much do forever upgraded accounts go for on other sites? I'd imagine it'd be difficult to find one selling them for less than $25.

I have never joined a site where you automatically get an upgraded account. Every site I have ever joined requires you to purchase the upgrade separately from your alpha account number. For forever upgraded accounts? I have two - one was $75 and the other was $60. That said, I'd like to purchase an alpha account #, but I need to go back and see what is still available. _______________________________________________ Desired IDs (up to three in order of preference): From $25 choices - 30, 33 - and if I can't get either of those, I'd like 40 from the $20 group.

It was an assumption on my part and only from my own past experiences in other games. Wajas, for example. The early days prices were not like they are today. But you bought the account as a forever upgrade in the early days. The number of the account was dependent on "right place, right time". Clearly those getting in early got the lower account numbers. You are correct, there has never been any mention of upgrades. It pretty much is exactly as Tou described... just history with other games. But they are also correct in that it doesnt come with currency to get a custom or upgrade for a time period either. I certainly did not seem to come across as not appreciative. It was merely a curiosity.

Thricë, it is alright. Just wanted to make sure no one was feeling unhappy with what they had received and double-check that there had never been any references to upgrades. Hope that you are enjoying the game!

Thrice: Touketsu is female. Touketsu figured she should tell you since you called her 'they' ^^ (She also just wanted to try speaking in third person, as eveyone that she knows has done it at least once.)
