With this new calculation, it's possible for someone's paid time to have started on 8/16/2014, and they would still get the mount.
8/16/2014 until 3/16/2015 is 212 days. At that point, someone could set up a 3-month sub for an extra 92 days, putting them at 304 days, and get the mount.
I believe this should reward people that have been here since Day One, not people that joined four months after launch.
I dont mind they paid the same as us. Hell after March we can cancel our subs they will have paid 5 months.
It's the principle of the matter. I've been here since the Beta in September 2013. That means I've been playing this game almost a year longer than some people who will also be receiving the "Loyalty" mount.
It's clearly designed as a way to hook people into new subs, I just personally wish it was a bit more exclusive.0 -

In the end its a video game. I was hoping it to be a bit more exclusive as well. I'll get over it tho

You're right. Also, I realize the realities of the new business model, and this will be more profitable for the game in the long-run, hopefully making it better for everyone.2 -

Yea... but what are you going to do? Let them have them. Doesn't devalue my battlecat mount at all. It's still awesome.
What ESO really needs is an Auction Horse.
That's right... Horse.

Fortunately, there are only 90 days in a 90 day subscription, so they will not be able to game the system like that. There is also no way they could have 212 days since all subs are in 30 day increments. They would either have 210 days or 240; there is no option in between. The least amount of time you would need on March 15 is 210 days elapsed. Then you could pay for another 90 days, which is the longest subscription at the moment, and you could qualify for the tiger.
You could also go out and buy time cards but that requires a whole new level of math that I am not qualified to try.

Your math is correct. I was thinking in months of time.
I didn't even consider game time cards, which would potentially allow any idiot to buy 10 of them and get the mount, even if they started today.1 -
