Extra Type Ahead Question 10/30/2010 07:22 PM CDT
Quick question--If I were to drink from the fountain to get the extra type ahead line, how long would it last? What I mean is, if I at some point downgrade to standard in the future, would this extra type ahead line be lost? If it is, would it automatically come back when I go back to premium?

Also, can I drink from the fountain more than once to get 2 extra type ahead lines?

P.S. Type ahead lines are awesome.

I haven't tested that aspect of it, but I seem to remember being told it was a one-time only thing.

It does persist across downgrades and subsequent re-upgrades, though. So if you go from premium to standard, you'll still have the 2 typeahead lines as though you were a premium subscriber without an LTB boost. Whenever you maintain an active premium subscription you will have the full 3 typeahead lines.

The last time I saw this question, the answer was that there would always been an extra type-ahead line. Premies get an extra line as it is, IIRC, then the fountain gives one more over that, which stays with the character permanently.

Actually with the whole account, not just the character.

You keep it.

No. Once per entire account that works across all characters.

<<Actually with the whole account, not just the character.>> not the whole account, its instance-specific. I have the extra type-ahead on one account in prime, but it does not carry over to either tf or plat.
