Ok, My Subscription is going to expire.....?

Hi anyone who may read this, I will start by saying when I first signed up for Glitch way back when, I kept missing the tests, and finally I managed to catch one! I love it, its quite fun and a little addicting! But anyway, I was looking around on my account and I saw this thing that says:
Your Free Beta Subscription expires on June 25, 2011 Purchase a Subscription
Hm... What exactly is this? I have to buy pay to be able to test anymore? I really want to know because I love glitch and even though the times between tests takes time, and the lag issues are kinda rough sometimes, I want to play!!!! So if someone could let me know if I need to purchase to test ... that would be fantastic. If I have to pay to continue playing/testing then that's what I'll have to do.. Thanks for any help anyone can give.

  • You never have to pay to play, a subscription only gets you some extra clothes and teleport tokens (but you can still teleport with the teleportation skill) and the ability to vote on new features. You'll always be able to play for free.

  • Nope, you can still play, you just won't get subscriber perks (e.g. monthly allowances of credits and tokens, votes in glitch referendums, a little heart by your name in the forums, certain wardrobe/vanity items) unless you purchase a subscription.

  • You don't have to pay to test (my alpha subscription expired a couple weeks ago) but the subscription gives you access to other things like special clothes, hair, etc. along with several other special features for subscribers. There is a discount if you purchase a subscription during beta period so if you want subscription rights now is the time to get it.

  • Thanks for the replies!! I think I may hook myself up with a subscription there is some good deals in there and it looks like they don't start deducting until the game is OPEN permanently? Am I right  there?.

  • You know, I have one more question.. if I purchase a subscription, and get the credits assigned to said sub, but don't spend them, will they add and add and add up each month until I spend them, even say, If I let the subscription go after the first year? Sorry to be a pain full of questions but.. just wondering..

  • This link will take you to the Help Page.... the FAQs about billing and subscriptions are at the bottom.

  • I believe that's true. Any credits or teleportation tokens you accumulate are always yours even if you stop the subscription. The only thing that might disappear is wardrobe or vanity items that are for subscribers only.

  • I'm pretty certain in the message I got they said that any wardrobe items I had purchased while subscribed would remain in my wardrobe after my subscription lapsed.

    If you have paid for subscriber clothes with credits, you will not lose them when your subscription expires.

  • You may not lose them but... will you still be able to wear them?
