Several of ourWorld's basic functions are controlled from your account page. The Account Link is highlighted here in blue. You'll find it in the upper-right of the screen Controls and displays available on your Account page include: Membership Type Resident/Tourist Display Membership Expiration Display (Resident Only).

The date your Resident membership expired is listed on your Account page. Log in and click "account" in the upper right of the screen. You will see the date there. If you have signed up for a month-to-month ourWorld subscription it will not expire until you cancel. Your expiration date doubles as the date of your next billing.

When a Resident account expires that player becomes a tourist, again. The character's photo and clothes inventories shrink to the smaller tourist size. If you have more gear than what will fit in the smaller inventory you will need to sell items in order to buy new things or spin the prize wheel. No items are removed from your inventory automatically. The character will no longer receive resident perks like the 150 gems per month and the monthly bonus item. The character's condo will be closed. If the account is renewed the condo will return as it was before. You can see your resident membership expiration date on your account page (in the upper right of the ourWorld screen).

If you like ourWorld, but you're not happy with your starting Avatar you can make lots of changes in your account profile. Your resident subscription will remain valid until its expiration date at which point your account will revert to a free tourist membership. To contact us about your account or subscription simply create a support ticket at our customer support portal located here, and we'll take care of it. Be sure to include your ourWorld name and/or login email with your request.
