I have really missed being able to update my Magelo account - be so glad when it comes back from the LD zone. My question is this: are the Premium Service people having any problems with their automatic updates? I should have got this service a long time ago. I was just wondering. The only thing I can do now is bring up my very outdated Magelo page.

Does anyone have an email addy for Magelo so I can check on progress and find out more about the Premium Service? Thanks for your help in advance :)

I am able to connect, but when I shut down EQ later, I get "unable to update" something about not being able to run the Magelo with my current version of EQ. Magelo, while a good concept, has crappy reliability, even as a premium member.

I am now a registered magelo user and have been having no problem updating lately.

At the moment, Magelo's working fine for me.

That said, I'm unlikely to renew my premium membership.

Positives:

As a registered member, the quality of the service is excellent. Play, synch - Et Voila! I have an up to date verified web page of my toon's kit

Jelan works his **** off to update the system as quickly as possible when SOE patch the server

But

There's a mismatch between the homesey personable 'Fan Based Site' that does the best it can, and the set fee that customers pay

When a patch renders the site OOA for a while there's no ETA, just a stream of 'Apologia' in the forum that 'We can't read SOE's mind about patches'

In summary,

Magelo has an awesome product, but it's dependent on external variables that it can not influence.

Those variables have become more variable in recent months

Magelo's value has diminished significantly with the frequency of patching
