Nice to see that they are finally instituting a rewards system. A bit late, but it's nice.

I think TP would have been a better reward myself, but then they'd have to hand out a couple thousand for it to be at all useful.
How did buying a lifetime account become a free ride, and an example of not supporting Turbine? That money left my pocket and they took it. Free it was not.

Well, you can dump them as a matter of principle, if you like. Alternatively, if you have a friend in-game that is stuck with boxes and no keys, perhaps a gift or trade would be the right solution.

A shame I'd be something like 3.8 years in the game at that date, so yeah, only 3 year rewards for me. That'll be the first time I'll go open those lootboxes, then, with those 3 keys they offer me. I only have never looted a lootbox yet.

I have one 5 year account, and I can't remember when I created my 2nd lifetime account, but I know it was as a trial account before I decided to add game-keys to it.

Well, at least I know I won't miss out on the festival horse this time around. I was already content that all my new characters received the pre-order goat mount with MoM, but it only had 60 morale (plus it's a goat). Now all of my characters will receive a horse mount that mirrors the equivalent of kindred mounts. Not too shabby.

I wonder, if people log in, will their characters get the new stuff immediately, or will they have to type in /claim, and get every single piece of 'reward' they've ever gotten since the game began? I know I'd want to kill someone if I had to go through all the ROI stuff I got with the legendary purchase, on top of all the stuff from the veteran rewards. That's just a killer combo right there. I wonder if they'll be smart and adapt a GUI that allows you to pick from a list of all available 'rewards' so you don't flood your bags? Of course, the potions and such are likely to be one shots and they won't want them repeating (though since they ARE bound, you can't sell, so not a big deal to me). Hard to know how that will be handled.

Likely the same SOB who thought up the 'charge them to fix the Barter Wallet', and 'stop allowing in game purchase of vault increases'.

From the FAQ, which I didn't initially read either
Quote
Do I have to log in to the game during the festival to receive my gifts?
No. Even if you are unable to log in during the anniversary festival, you will still receive your gifts upon your next login. We think you’ll want to join us for the festival though – it’s going to be quite a party!
How do I receive my gifts?
Your gifts will appear automatically in your inventory upon login, provided there are enough open spaces available. If you did not have enough spaces, the remaining gifts will appear upon the next login when enough spaces are open. Eligible players will have their new portrait frame automatically applied to your characters upon login.

Now now, it's not the items that are the problem; it's just the delivery that is. In this case, it's a bit of "advantage not convenience," if you follow.

Actually, Dal, he does have a point. He really does. How many threads on the front page are bashing Turbine; how many aren't? I also don't hang around here much any more because it's largely BashTurbineCommunity.com, not LOTROCommunity.com. It gets tedious after a while, however well-stated the bashing is.
Good players adapt, bad players whinge; which are you?
I find that, where Turbine is concerned, optimism is a mayfly that lasts two seconds in the face of the blowtorch of experience.
