If I were to pay for one month, then not the next...would I be able to reactivate my previous player-files, or would I have to start over...and is that even possible?

Your account will not be deleted for a while.

If you want to hear it straight from a dev, last post :p

This is, without a doubt, the most frequently asked question. John and I, as an inside joke, now ask each other this every other time we see each other.

It'd be awesome if it were like, in the FAQ.

You're a dev, why don't you add it? :>

hehe, thanks man...now, one more question: how would i temporarily cancel the account (as if to not pay for a month)?

Under 'Billing Options', there will be a cancel button if you've paid via credit card. Just hit it - your account will continue to work until the expiration date. If you pay for a month, you keep the month regardless of when you cancel.

Right on...thank you.

What if you are paying for one month at a time and want to just keep renewing that subscription? Does it automatically do that for you? (and if so, for some reason it didnt do it for me and im wondering why)

It keeps renewing, Anevitt, up until the expiration date on your credit card, which I encourage you to check. :P
