Platinum is an in game currency which replaced Subscription Time. With Platinum you can buy extra features. Most of those are permanent but some items are only a temporary boost. The big difference between Subscription Time and Platinum is that there is no time limit, platinum does not go down!

History

Platinum is the 'premium' currency within Legacy. Before Platinum there was Subscription Time, when you bought Subscription Time, either from players with credits or from Legacy with cash, it would slowly go down until there was none left. Unlike Subscription Time, Platinum does not go down. In the old system when you had subscription time available you would have a number of benefits, Special Outfits, Faster Ability Training, A Badge and Banner, Forum Title, Double Inventory Space, Friends List, Battle Clinic, Cheaper Tokens, Longer Lasting Items and Drops, Max Turns Increased, and No Account Deletion. If you still had any Subscription Time Left it was traded into Platinum automatically when the switch over was made on the 19th May 2011.

Trading With Platinum

You can now buy and sell items at the market with platinum, in the market square, items will still decrease in a trade point per exchange.

If you buy platinum from other players you cannot then sell it back on the platinum market. There are two types of platinum, bound and unbound. When you first buy platinum for cash it is bound meaning you can then sell it to players. If you buy platinum from players it turns into unbound platinum, you cannot resell, you can only use it.

If someone does decide to buy platinum that you have put on sale, then you will receive a message saying:
