hblask 1 Posted December 5, 2007 Share Posted December 5, 2007 Do you earn Vpp's at an accelerated rate as well ? It would make it easier to maintain status !No, and that's why. But you do get to earn extra FPPs for the next month, so with this promotion, you can get 100 FPPs in the first day or two, and then earn extra FPPs for the rest of December and all of January.

Ie achie Silver Status by the 15th of the month, and you have it for the rest of the month and the next month.Maybe I just dont get the promo. Link to post Share on other sites

It's not completely clear, but the way it's written, your way makes the most sense. Link to post Share on other sites
FCP Bob 1,312 Posted December 5, 2007 Author Share Posted December 5, 2007 Your current status is based on what level you reached in November. For example I'm a gold star but let's assume that you're a bronze star.When you reach 100 VPP's in December that won't change your status for December and you are still a BronzeStar but will mean that you will be a SilverStar in January. If you then reach 1500 VPP's in December you will be a SilverStar for the rest of December and you will be a GoldStar in January. If you then reach 4000 VPP's in Dec you will be a Gold Star for the rest of December and a Platinum Star in January.Basically the more you play in December the higher level you reach the even greater level you'll be in January.I hope I've been clear in my explanation.

But one Q that hasn't benn answered is do we get the accelerated FPP earnings like all the normal Silver, Gold Stars get? Basically do we get all the benefits that normal ppl get who are not fortunate to get our accelarated Star status.The literature: As a SilverStar VIP you will receive a 50% FPP bonus. So whenever you earn an FPP, we'll credit you with 1.5 FPPs. You'll notice your FPP balance going up 50% faster! Link to post Share on other sites

I thought I explained that above.When you have a certain status you get all the benefits from that status. You won't see your status change until January from this promo, for December you are exactly like everybody else. Link to post Share on other sites

Umm, I'm not sure what you're talking about. This promo has nothing to do with bonus.The adjustment for January should be done within the first couple days of the month.I think what he's asking Bob, and I'm assuming here, is where it shows the VPP status, it still says how many we have to earn for this month being the regular rate (Ex. 1422 VPP by Dec. 31st to earn Silver status) etc. I was wondering about that myself. Is it just going to calculate later? Link to post Share on other sites
