Suggestion: New Account Types

[strathound]

My suggestion has less to do with gameplay and more to do with the kind of accounts we can create. I have two basic suggestions:

1.) Give us the option of purchasing a lifetime membership. I read somewhere that LOTR Online offered this for like $199. I'd pay that in a heartbeat over the monthly subscription. That way I wouldn't feel like I had to play every night and could take my time levelling my character.

2.) How about family memberships? I will probably keep two active accounts. That way two of us can play together at a time. However, it would be nice if this was a little more flexible. I'd like all of us to be able to get online together now and then. But this will be infrequent so I don't want to pay for 4 full accounts. I don't know, maybe we can use two free accounts and two paid accounts. Some options here would be nice. Ideally all my family members could have full accounts and then we just paid based on how many can be logged in at the same time. Also, the accounts could be separate from users somehow so that different combinations of players could login and play together using the fixed accounts but they could all still get to their characters? I don't know if this makes sense. But maybe you get the jist.
