Suggestion: SS and Market Use

This is a quickie...

I started less than 2 weeks ago, and had some spare money sitting in my PayPal account, so I bought SS with it. However, I still cannot use the market.

Could it be set up so someone with SS can use the market immediately upon obtaining SS, rather than having to wait for the full 2 weeks?

you have to wait 2 weeks to use the market, EVEN if you have SS, giving them access right away means that someone could start, buy USS, and then get a MAJOR head start over those who dont buy SS right away.

Yes, but why should those that use real money to buy SS not have an advantage?

Ok, so not immediately, but maybe some advantage in market use for those that pay real money for SS...like maybe let them on the market after a week instead of two.

3, enough swearing. the fact that you've not put the full word does not detract from the fact that we know what it is. this is a PUBLIC forum, and many players are younger. we, and them, do not need your posts to be filled with swearing. seriously, if you have a point, make it, but get rid of the swearing.

It was made that way as a multi-prevention. Now you cannot setup a multi, buy it SS and start sending yourself stuff right away.

I must admit I was not aware of this - having bought SS way back in March last year when all bonuses were instant - have to admit that it seems a bit unfair. Is there not another solution?

As I read down the thread, I'll admit: I disagreed against the rule to begin with. I can't remember it existing when I started playing the game.

My fiancee started playing three or four weeks ago, and she couldn't use the trades. That seemed a bit unfair. However; Sleipnir's post made me feel otherwise.

Anything preventing cheaters from gaining is great! After all; Anyone quitting this game after two weeks shouldn't play at all anyways. :)
