Forum > Suggestions > Option to convert "FREE" player to normally FLEX-purchased one.

I recently e-mailed Support asking them to do this for one of my dots so I could have another Free player without having to retire the current one and the admin suggested posting the idea here.

I grossly over-estimated how much FLEX I would need to carry out my remaining dots to plateau, so I would have liked the option to convert my Free player to a standard one in order to use up some of my FLEX.

I feel this would be a neat option to impliment for the morons like me who purchase FLEX in bulk pre-emptively but cannot do math but also for those of the users who come up with the funds to purchase more FLEX after-the-fact.

I envision this potential option working with the automatic deduction of the appropriate amount of FLEX (player cost + boosts) from each user's account when the option is exercised, and I also feel there will need to be an automatic bar from this conversion if the user's account does not have at least the appropriate amount of FLEX.

Thank you for any and all consideration.

Respectfully submitted,

dommy

If this is the case, I feel the option to go both ways (lol) should be available to us.

Bort may not like it in as much as its most likely to be used to pay for a cheaper dot to get a free expensive one. Really only reason to use it I can think of.

But still why not

?

Sounds like a fair option to me... don't think I would ever do that, but who knows

converting flex player to free player is definitely on admins NGTH list. I'm still waiting for admin answer on your suggestion though.

I didn't even think of that, but if that truly would be the case (probably), then maybe some constraints could be put into place like allowing the conversion only in exchange for a Free player of equal or lesser value when the time comes.

I would say that as long as the swap of free-to-flex player, or vice versa, works only when the requisite amount of money can be attained. As long as the balance sheets match up, there can be no "cheating the system" and therefore it's a very good idea.
