I've gotten a handful of e-mails (about 2-3 per month for the past several months) letting me know I've been given a complimentary Premium subscription to Curse, and listing off some of the benefits of being a Premium member.  I imagine this is because I'm now listed as an author for QuestHelper, because it didn't occur until I was.  However, nothing seems to have changed - I still see the advertisements, there's nothing in my profile indicating I'm a Premium member, so...am I?  If not...why am I getting these e-mails?

(Those responsible for this site can extract my e-mail from their records, so I will not post it here.)

Hi Ionadar,

As an author, your account should be flagged as being premium-enabled.  We'll investigate.

Thanks,

Magus

Do you have access to a premium forum on these boards?

I just checked your account and you do indeed have premium.

You may want to try logging out/logging in to ensure your cookies have been updated.

I'll try flushing my cache/cookies and see.  Yes, I do see a Premium forum in the main forums list, now that you mention it.  I don't use the Curse Client (prefer hands on)...perhaps I'm just not realizing things have changed?  Should I still be receiving these e-mails, or was this an earlier issue now fixed?  I do appreciate you checking for me, though.  (Now if only I could get logged into CurseForge.)

Hi Lonadar,

You are definitely setup with a complimentary Curse Premium account. Do you see your complimentary subscription here?

The system does a check every month to see "hey, are you an author?" If it's true, you'll given a month premium subscription so you'll probably get e-mails monthly.  As for the advertisements, what kind are you seeing?
