Dear Broadsword,
Veteran "Active Age" Accounts are an asset to Ultima Online and Broadsword, I would imagine, since they bring in a steady influx of monthly resources which can, reasonably, be "relied upon".....
I mean, if a player has kept an account for "that" long as active, chances are that they will keep maintaining it active..... so, it could be safe to say, I would imagine, that such "loyal" customers could be customers which, when it comes to resources for Ultima Online, could be relied upon....
That said, shouldn't these Loyal Customers be shown a sign of appreciation for their Loyalty for such an exceptional and long period of time ?
Veteran Rewards, to my opinion, look to be the perfect "tool" to show to these Loyal Customers that sign of appreciation....
YET, if Veteran Rewards keep being "stopped" at 15 Years of Account "Active Age" (being at 22 we are SEVEN Years past that.....), why would a Veteran player want to maintain their Account as active should they have, for whatever reasons, motifs to stop their subscription ?
Only because at 20 Years of "Active Age" they could claim a Serpentine Dragon Mount ?
What I am trying to say, is that if you have customers who have been loyal to Ultima Online for some 22 Years, well, perhaps it might be a good idea to show the appreciation for such an exceptional and LONG loyalty by issuing a Veteran Reward that only their Account, with 22 Years of a whopping Active Age, could claim ?
You can well make it so that any Active Age account can then use such a Reward, but please, make it so that, at least, only 22 Years of "Active Age" accounts can claim it to show to all these players that their being Loyal to Ultima Online for a whopping 22 Years is very meaningfull and greatly appreciated.
This would defeat the argument that only such high active age accounts could enjoy this particular Reward and also, since you kindly always present Rewards for Younger Veteran Active age Years accounts, also account not having such an exceptional Active Age, can enjoy plentifully their Veteran Rewards.
Having "Top" Active Age accounts Veteran Rewards, to my viewing, is a way to show to these players who maintained their Accounts as Active for such an exceptionally long period of time, the appreciation for such an exceptional Loyalty. Besides, it could also motivate younger active age accounts players, to want to maintain their accounts as active for longer so as to be able to progress in their accounts' active age in order to be able to claim those "top" Years Veteran Rewards.
Or, if they are in a hurry to get them, they could get them more simply from players who have their Account Active Age to claim them...
So, PLEASE, make at least 1 Veteran Reward this 2019 that will be only claimable by 22 Years Active Age Veteran Accounts. Make it usable by any active age account, so that one way or the other any player might be able to use it but please, make at least 1 Veteran Reward only "claimable" by 22 Years Veteran Account "Active" Age.
Thank you SO much.
