Here's today's AO Daily Update: Today we will talk about the patch we released today, billing and account information, and the Testlive server. We are very enthusiastic about the patch that was released today. This patch should solve most of the problems people have had with disconnects and it will also solve nearly all of the client crashes. Today we will start the monthly billing cycle for the first people who created accounts with the game. We are very happy with our new account system and are confident that you will be too. However, should you experience any problems with anything regarding the payments on your account, we are here to help you. We will also not close any accounts right away and we will never delete accounts. Your CD key is valid for the lifetime of the game, and although your character will be deleted after 3 months of your account being "on hold", we will never delete the actual account. All you need is your username and password to log in and play again. For our last bit of news today, after some short downtime, the Testlive server is back up and running. We hope many more players will pop by this server from time to time. We will be back with more tomorrow.
