You'll also get 500 points per anniversary that you've been playing (so 1500 if you're a founder)

If you are a founder with a lifetime account the bare minimum you'll get is 3000 turbine points, and you don't have to do anything to get those points they're on their way.

If you log in, that's all, just, 1 login, you don't even have to do anything, just enter your account name, password, and click log in, pick a character, enter middle earth, then log right back off.. one time per month starting June 1st..

You get 500 more points per month you do that until F2P goes live. After that, you don't even have to log in anymore if you don't want, you get 500 points a month just for being dope.

Say for instance, F2P launches December 1st.. a Lifetime founder who does so little as to just log in once a month, will get that 3000, plus another 3000 from the 500 per month.. that's 6000 Turbine points.. plus 500 a month every month ..

People who think they're getting shafted for their lifetime account are just out to lunch.
Yup, I did the math in this thread here, http://forums.lotro.com/showthread.php?t=335635 and what I concluded is that Lifetimers will probably be getting around $600 worth of free TP by the time the game ends in 2017 (if they don't extend it).

$600!!! For the price of a $2-300 purchase which most of us have either already broken even on, or will by the time F2P goes live.

As long as the game remains good you really CAN'T beat that.
