Citizenship Referral Program:
The Citizen Referral Program has begun. Active
Worlds will be trying a new referral program to reward
citizens who are helping us grow. When a new customer
registers they will have the option of entering the Citizen
Name of the person who referred them to Active Worlds.
Once the new customer has been registered, in Active Worlds,
for more than two months the Citizen that referred them
will receive a free month of Citizenship. (depending on
the activation method a new customer can enter your Citizen
information in a "Comments" field or in a "Referred
by" field)
