Removed some off topics posts.

Ok, guys, arguing with @Salvos_Rhoska about that the glass is half empty or half full can be debatable. Everybody can have his own point of view over different things. Are you participating in some sort of political elections or what? Most of your replies are kind of trolling in this thread. He, similarly to @Rivr_Luzade, @Balos_Tritapo noticed that its a 30 day subscription, a period. I’ll try to explain a difference between period and month subscriptions…

Subscription is a kind of billing monetization.

Telecommunications billing system is an enterprise application software designed to support the telecommunications billing processes.

Telecommunications billing is a significant component of any commercial communications service provider regardless specialization: telephone, mobile wireless communication, VoIP companies, mobile virtual network operators, internet service providers, transit traffic companies, cable television and satellite TV companies could not operate without billing, because it creates an economic value of their business.

Look at your ISP contracts. It must be around $30 - $50 per month for unlimited 100Mb/s, right? You have a monthly billing subscription. It means that in January you’ll pay $40 for 31 days usage, in February you’ll pay the same $40 for 28 days usage, which in other words, it also means that in January you’ll get some bonuses, benefits from your monthly subscription. If you’ll sign your monthly ISP contract in January 14, you’ll not get a full month subscription until, lets say, February 15 - the billing system will count until January 31. Moreover, how to count a 1 month subscription in January 1:

  • it can be a 28 days month;

  • it can be a 30 days month;

  • it can be a 31 days month.

In your ISP contract should be noticed how they’ll count a 1 month. May it be a 30 days month only, right? So, with these conditions, if you’ll pay for 1 month subscription, you’ll get 30 days of interned. Therefore, when you’ll try to connect to internet in January 31, you’ll not be able to do it, because the ‘virtual’ month has 30 days only. After you’ll pay for a month, you’ll not be able to use internet for entire month, which is nonsense, right?

The Omega subscription is a Period basis subscription, which tends to some sort of granular billing model,- 500 PLEX for 30 days. The smallest granule (one day) costs 500/30 = 16.667 PLEX. So, to be more accurate, we can call it not a month subscription, but a daily subscription. A period basis subscription makes easier to perform billing computations in scenarios when customers add game time through ‘Add game time option’ for 6 months, 1 year and ‘PLEX option’ for 30 days, 90 days at once. It makes it additive. As I mentioned in a post above, if you’ll PLEX your account for 1 year = 12 months = 365 days then you’ll get only 30x12 = 360 days from 365 days, which isn’t a year but practically it doesn’t matter so much.

The Period basis billing (PLEX) is useful and comfortable for ‘service providers’, while the monthly subscription model is useful for their customers, because in this scenario its easier to adapt a long-term plan for them. It sounds differently ‘I have a 6 months subscription’ (Aha, I’m in until November, ok) and ‘I have a 180 days subscription’ (hmm, wut? when?). The confusion happens when the producer’s period based subscription is presented for customers as a monthly basis subscription. This confusion happens similarly to how the ‘discount from discount’ is presented on ‘Add game time’ page, which is well discussed on this forum.

500 PLEX gets you 30 days.
Months have nothing to do with it.

There is nothing more to it than that.

Somebody /thread this, cos I cant do it myself according to netiquette

We were all laughing at how stupid you are.

Steve_Ronuken: Plex lasts for 30 days

Salvos_Rhoska: WRONG. It ONLY lasts 30 days.

Steve_Ronuken: Thats what I said…

Salvos_Rhoska: WRONG. You still dont get it do you. It ONLY lasts 30 days.

This is the level of stupidity that youve shown in this thread.

Incorrect.
He said, and I quote verbatim:

See?

Sorry, but no matter how hard you try to troll, you cant change the facts.

You’ve already had some of your posts hidden.
Learn to walk away.

Do you know what he said directly after that?

Youre right. The facts dont change.

So youre bragging that you flagged my posts with you and your alts? Okay.

Again, everyone here is against you. You should be the one to walk away. You only make yourself look more stupid.

I dont flag, or do anything here, with alts.

Steve was wrong.
He got corrected.
That would have been the end of it, if it wasnt for people like you insulting/trolling incessantly therafter over something that was settled already much earlier on.

Yeah.

Right.

He did. by Rivr Luzade.

He acknolwedged this.

Then you came along, and made some really stupid posts.

If, by “people like you”, you mean “Every single other person in this thread”, then sure. You literally kept coming back, and posting the same stupid cr@p over and over again. That wasnt us. That was you.

I understand Steve is your buddy, and you want to protect his innocence.

But Steve fked up, and got called on it.

None of that justifies your insults/trolling thereafter.

Never seen steve before till this thread.

Im just the type of person to call out people for their stupidity when i see it.

Again, yes he did.

And it wouldve ended there.

But then you brought it up, over and over again.

I agree, i am insulting you, but im not trolling.

Just because someone points out how stupid you are, doesnt mean they are trolling.

Funny, I didnt see you correcting Steves “stupid” mistake.
Instead you attacked those correcting him politely and matter of factly.

Strange. Not only did you just admit to forum rule violation, you also fail to realize that its you and your ilk that keep this going on, when it could/should have ended 60posts ago.


This was my post, literally the one above/preceding yours, where you started insulting/trolling on this, all over again:

I think this should be fought out in game, both carrying a plex in cargo

That’s a very good idea. Then the boys can whip it out and see who has the biggest ego!
:smile:

Nothing to fight about.
Guy was wrong.
He got corrected.

The remaining 60 posts are the result of trolling/buttrage over something that was already resolved before they even got here.

Bacon.

Because he was already corrected.

This is like the third time telling you this.

Do you want me to quote the person who corrected him again?

Yeah, you were a complete A-hole. Dont kid yourself.

You can stop it right now. Stop posting. Leave.

Yes. You brought it up. Again. Which prompted me to reply.

Not by you.

But then, by you.

Multiple times.

Thats what we were calling you out on.

Bringing it up again, huh. You really dont want to let this go, do you.

There wouldve been nothing more, but you keep bringing it up over and over.

Is there a single person in this thread that has taken your side? And how many pointed out your stupidity? Maybe that should be an indication that youre in the wrong?
