kgs account timeout ?

Post by otenki »

Hi guys,

Do you know when kgs accounts start to get deleted? I`m currently only playing on tygem and real life but would rather not loose my kgs account for later. Anyone know after how long it starts expireing ?

Cheers,
Otenki

It used to be and probably still is six months, but am not certain (let mine go awhile ago).

I make sure to log on once every three months just to keep it. I think it is 6 months, but I don't want to risk forgetting.
Still officially AGA 5d but I play so irregularly these days that I am probably only 3d or 4d over the board (but hopefully still 5d in terms of knowledge, theory and the ability to contribute).

It is 180 days, which, in some cases, might be a couple of days short of 6 months.
However, if the account has or used to have a KGS Plus subscription, it is 2 years.
