Maybe I'm blind but I can't find anywhere that lists the benefits of having a premium account. Could someone please tell me what's so special about upgrading to premium?

About the only benefits are ability to buy land in the mainland and you get a weekly stipend.
Am I forgetting something? Anyone?

1. You get a stipend every week.

2. You can buy land on the mainland.

I am sure others will add to this list.

Premium accounts are also supposed to get priority access to the grid if things are getting overloaded... but LL actually has never implemented this at any time yet... and probably never will.

Support will be changing soon, too - premium accounts will get a bit more than basic ones..

You can own 512M of land tier free.

LL don't believe you're 18 and therefore you're a dirty liar.

also, "in the near future" as LL likes to put it, premium members will receive enhanced technical support.

Yeah. That's what I got from their blog posts, too. Premiums are dirty liars.

I just think it's rude. I've also been out to a bar watching the European Cup Final so my judgements on what's suitable to post could be clouded but I promise not to swear or call people names.
