Until Monday, October 1st, at noon PDT, if you subscribe for three months of Gold membership, you'll only pay for two months -- a 33% discount, down to just $30! That's just $10 a month for all the perks of being a Gold member. You will keep this discounted subscription rate as long as you remain subscribed.

Wait, wha?! That's stupid. In other words: current Gold members should cancel their Gold membership, and then immediately renew it for a lifelong 33% discounted Gold membership; is that what you're saying?
ok, a little more tempting, but Gold still doesn't seem to have a large enough advantage to offset the benefits of putting the money into Zen instead...
If the 700 day Android were fully functional, it'd be a no-brainer. As it is? Almost makes more sense to wait until just before I hit VA/LG on a character and then sub for a month.
Give me partial credit on an LTS sub for time already subbed and I'd probably jump at that.

:eek:
I agree tho... if I wasn't already a lifer.. I wouldn't buy it
Hmm what happens to the purchases I made so far? If I have a lvl 50 toon already will I get 5 free retrain tokens for that char if I subscribe? Or if I have 5 character slots unlocked will I still get one free? And what about the special x-day rewards? If I've played 200 days of F2P so far are those days counting for those rewards if I subscribe?

You don't have to unsubscribe. Just change your subscription. That's what I did. Went from monthly to the 3-month rate for the discount. I won't get billed again until next month (since I've already been billed this month) but next month it will bill me the 3-month rate and then once every 3 months after that. Since I changed my subscription today I will now be billed at the discount rate of $30 for 3 months. The monthly stipend, however, remains the same... 500 Zen every month. :P
*STO*Its mission: To destroy strange new worlds, to seek out new life and new civilizations... and then kill them, to boldly annihilate what no one has annihilated before!
thanks for clarifying on the sale, in regards to whether we keep the sale price if we say subscribed.
$15 a month is steep, and I jumped on the 3 months for $30 to give it a try when the sale started.
I like the game and am willing to play $30 for 3 months, effectively $10 a month, which seems very reasonable.
If you figger in the Zen stipend (500 Zen = $5 every month) then it's really only costing us $5 a month... very reasonable, indeed, considering what we get in this game. I don't think I've more than looked in to any of my other games since I started playing in January.

What can you do with 500 zen though? Buy three lock box keys and that's about it.

that was my interpretation also
:eek:

no, yes, and no
Not interested unless they plan on dropping the price to something reasonable like ?30GBP
My only concern is about the montly zen. 500 is a bit low, better if become 750 of at least, 650.
