The '''premium subscription''' is one of the three available [[subscription]] tiers of [[GemStone IV]], which has a higher account fee in exchange for multiple benefits. Being subscribed at the premium tier is often referred to [[IC|in-character]] as being a member of the [[Four Winds Hall]].

== Subscription Benefits ==
Most of the current premium subscription benefits can be found by typing {{boldmono|PREMIUM 2}} in game.

===PREMIUM 2===
{{#section:PREMIUM (verb)|PREMIUM 2}}

====Merchant Services====
A number of merchants visit Four Winds Isle or the various Premium Halls at the discretion of the Premium GameMaster. While Premium merchants are a specified benefit, merchants are subject to change and may be scheduled or unscheduled and announced or unannounced.
*[[Autoscripter]]
*[[Premium Unlocker]]
*[[Ravias Crotar]] Raffle (usually an [[Arkati]] symbol, monthly)
*[[WPS]]

===Other Benefits===
These benefits are not listed in {{boldmono|PREMIUM 2}}.

====Premium Trove====
Monthly [[/Premium Trove|Premium Trove]]

====Premium Festival====
Annual [[:Category:Premium Festival|premium festivals]].

====Premium Spell of the Month====
: ''Main article: [[Premium spell of the month]]''

Subscribers may pick up an item that will change spells monthly and is for one or two uses per day, depending on the spell.

====Reim Access====
Premium members can enter the [[Settlement of Reim]] on a 22 hour cooldown without purchasing quest tokens.

====Type-ahead Lines====
You get an extra type-ahead line as a Premium subscriber, preventing you from being kicked out of the game for typing too many commands at once! An additional type-ahead line can be purchased in Mist Harbor for 900 points by drinking from the fountain.

====[[Premium Unlocks]]====
Unlock charms for certain fluff scripts can be purchased for Premium Points in the Lighthouse.

===Old Benefits===
====Bankbooks and Manifests====
[[Locker manifest]]s and [[bankbook]]s allow portable but read-only access to the character's bank balances and locker contents worldwide. Bankbooks and manifests are available east of the teller at the Four Wind Isles bank. These have been largely replaced by {{boldmono|[[Verb:BANK|BANK]]}} and {{boldmono|[[Verb:LOCKER|LOCKER]]}}.

====GM-assisted Wedding Services====
Premium members got a discount on GM-assisted weddings. These are on hold and are no longer occurring.

====Past Merchant Services====
Some of these have included:
*Lady Merrielle Monthly Raffle
*[[Felthrop]]'s Raffles (monthly)
*Naelyne Sews (monthly)
*Soirissa Sews (monthly)
*Jebariah ([[Premium transport jewelry|transporters]], bi-monthly)
*Geltrude Tattoos (bi-monthly)
*Arbigail (bi-monthly)
*Nycolle ([[label]]s, bi-monthly)
*[[Item property removal]] (occasional)

====Advanced Ticket Sales====
Premium members enjoyed the first pick at event tickets when they went on sale, giving an advantage for the events with limited amounts of tickets!

====Quarterly Premium Meetings====
These meetings provided a place for you to express your ideas and opinions about your subscription. You could also learn what projects or events were being worked on for Premium members, and even suggest your own. The Premium/Mist Harbor meetings occurred in March, June, September, and December each year, and were hosted by the Premium guru.
