Just to throw a bone in the works here, having locks based on 'paid' time WILL affect certain current members.
I do know of players that activate their accounts every 2.5 months. So technically they are getting a year's worth of age/locks for less then 6 months worth of subscription.
They skill the few new locks for a week or two and then their accounts go dormant/unpaid again for another 2.5 months.
So based on 'paid' time, some players would actually lose locks.
(Which I will not weep over because I always thought it was wrong to those of us who have never lapsed in payment.)
I am an absolute supporter of locks based on paid time. It will be an incentive to keep accounts paid yet players will not lose the time they've paid.
I wonder when the people who believe they should get what they did NOT pay for show up?
It would be nice to delete and recreate in either EAland/TC3 without fear of losing locks. Always did seem wrong to have to start a sim over with nothing after paying years on an account. (I have a 1k plus sim in TC3 that would love to be recreated at the moment....based on entitlement....instead of devs trying to fix it...I could just delete recreate and other then skills....I would still have that sim with locks.)
I believe it was mentioned to about tying the sim object limit to the paid time on the account too wasn't it?
(BTW....Since when can we only skill in TC3?)

I have had lapse times in my account but I had good reasons for this. After having these locks for so long, I would be rather upset to have locks taken away from me.
I would like the locks based on age much better if nothing was taken away from the sims that we decide not to delete. But if I decided to delete a sim then I would like to know that I could start another one at my entitlement age.
