Gah, was so close to coming back to Second Life.. I'm not sure if anyone would remember me but I played SL during beta a lot and recently have really felt the urge to get back to SL but damn, if only I had done the lifetime membership back when it was cheap for beta.. Trying to convince myself to cough up the insane amounts of money and just can't push myself to do it... If only.. if only..

Think of it this way: If you play SL for more than 13 months, it's cheaper to buy the lifetime account. So even if you stop and come back, it'll still be cheaper to go that way in the long run.

Yeah I think it may be part of me thats saying "You could have got it for less ..but you waited.." Kinda hurts to think about the difference lol. If only I could go back in time and order it then.. Only time will tell what will happen. Oh well, time MAY tell that I'm ordering it soon..

First off, beta lifetime membership was $169. Its now $225. That is USD, btw. Its unfortunate that you didn't get to get the lower price, however, SL is still a great game, I think its worth the 225.

While i will probably be happily shelling out my 15 a month for SL I to wish I could have taken advantage of the Beta lifetime price but didnt have the money at the time and wouldnt unilt next friday so i feel your pain but the game is worth the price.

Yeah if the memories I have aren't just being exaggerated in my head it is heh. I think I may be returning tomorrow.. I'd assume since Ive been gone for a few months my beta jacket and pin have been deleted along with cards and ratings etc?

James, it was $160 not $169. At least not on my bill.

Maybe they charged more for you because you kept leaking information :D
