    With this new release I have read that lot deeds can be upgraded. If I am a founder with a tax free town lot deed, can I upgrade to a city lot deed. If I cannot, I must ask why?

    I feel as a founder I should have the option to upgrade my lot deed, even if in payment installments. Yes I want to throw my money at Portalarium, will you accept?

    Yes you can upgrade up to a founder city deed. Right click on your deed (either in your inventory, containers or banks) and it will tell you how many cotos you require.

    *edit* 500 cotos to upgrade founder town to city.

    It is already in game.

    Hope this helps.

    If I'm reading the notes correctly, I can't upgrade my Royal Founder TF Keep deed to Castle?

    Founder TF and PA TF deeds are not allowed to upgrade to Keep or Castle.

    Its really dumb too because it totally devalues them. Just to make a couple malcontents happy they can still lord it over everyone while trashing the game on here, while the true fans can't pay to upgrade. Whatever.

    Yes, exactly. :( I have a keep deed, and I don't give a fig if other people can upgrade theirs to keep or castle. All this cap does is make founder/benefactor deeds less desirable. The game is full of empty (unclaimed) castle/keep lots in NPC/PRT towns, too. It's a sad state of affairs.

    Oh well. It was a thought.

    Most towns have empty Keep / Castle lots. I'm curious long term how we plan on resolving this. Somewhere someone will need to put down roots. I would hope :)

    Your attitude about Port being asked to keep its commitments related to these deeds is, there is no other way to say it, poor.

    Saying that the people that spent $5-12k on original pledges are not “true fans” is beyond disingenuous, and saying it is just to “lord” these over others is pathetic. Keep on keeping on though.

    Port hasn't kept many of its commitments (See the death of SPO, for example, the exclusiveness of the founder/benefactor tables, etc). Because they have had to find ways to adapt and change. As a person who purchased two Duke pledges, I can agree that I do not lord it over other people, and since I've been playing non-stop since persistence, I assume I'm a true fan? I don't know how one qualifies for that.

    But on the rest, Lord Trady is correct. Being unable to upgrade founder & benefactor deeds does devalue them. Why? Because one of the significant ways to earn cash is to grow crops. This means that POT deeds that can be upgraded to keep/castle lots are significantly more worthwhile to invest your IGG and COTOs into, because you can turn it back into more IGG. Being capped at a city lot is unfortunate.

    I never said you weren't a true fan Mishikal. I know you have skin in the game, unlike this uh, newbie alt account here that I won't mention.

    I'm only talking about people who don't like the game, don't play the game, come here and bash the game, being the ones mad about so called "promises" when you walk by empty lot after empty lot, undecorated keep and castle lot after each another and then wonder... why are we preventing founders, many of us also deeply in the thousands for this game, and spending hundreds just this very month, why are we prevented from upgrading those town and city lots to keep and castle as well ? The free lots given out by the game can be upgraded...so why not founder lots ?

    Does not compute. Sorry if it's too blunt, sometimes the truth hurts.

    Anyway, the idea of exclusiveness doesn't matter - we can buy and sell anything we want if we have the cash. I would just really rather prefer to buy it from Port over having to get one from a third party seller.

    Yeah, I know you didn't mean me. ;)

    Just to be clear, it's both founder and benefactor lots. I.e., any and all TF PA deeds. :/

    My name ingane is Augustus Gloop - feel free to friend me. Thanks for insulating something else though.

    And you know why upgrades aren’t possible. Port committed to not doing that. Sorry if that’s too blunt, but the truth hurts.

    Port made many commitments it hasn't kept. So the real question is, why this one and not the others?

    This exactly, especially for a period of time you could upgrade them all the way to Castle lot and this was never addressed.

    I am fine with Port keeping their Kickstarter promise but at least allow Founder/Benefactor deeds to be able to upgrade to POT exclusive TF Keep/Castle lots. Finger crossed they will eventually allow us to do that.
