Just curious, what post are you reading? Because it certainly isn't mine. It doesn't imply a darn thing about what people will be when Freedom launches. It says "everyone subscribing right now is a VIP without being called a VIP" (paraphrase), with nary a hint at "after "right now"". |

Reading it -right now-, what you wrote is correct (and I've said so).
However, the nitpicky part is what happens in a few days from now if someone reads it. You can say that everyone that is subscribing at this moment is a VIP, and some player has his/her account expire tomorrow expects they will be a VIP when freedom hits (without resubscribing). Yes, this is assuming some players are challenged in their logic. Given the numerous threads of this type over the last few months, I don't think that it is a bad assumption though.

I love the 'net.
First response answered my question - I don't have to do anything; each month NCSoft will automatically keep billing me and give me my VIP rewards, which is cool since I didn't want to have to log in and make changes to my accounts just to keep things as-is.
Meanwhile, we're on page 2 of how correct / incorrect, precise / imprecise, superfluous, or useful the other provided data is.
Thanks for the (over?) abundance of information.
The grammar police cometh.

Excuse me, but the highlighted portion here is incorrect for some users of the forums, or at the very least, for myself. I have my default thread display at 40 posts per page. We are, in fact, still on page one as far as I am concerned.

The devs told a funny story at the PAX panel about the Awesome buttons, that during some kind of secret preview with no cameras/filming, people wearing Awesome buttons (which have a tiny little red blinking light, quite like the recording light of a camcorder) would trigger the camera police to swoop in with the "naughty!" finger-shake, only to leave frustrated and confused.
