Does silver members get free retcon at 40 or is it exclusive for gold? I do not think so. I could be wrong, but I have seen nothing to indicate that Archetypes receive an earned-retcon at level 40. Again, feel free to correct me if I'm in error. Retconning is the act of paying resources to removing purchased advantages, powers, and talents from your character in the order that you obtained them. For Free-Forms, that's everything except the powers you started out with, but Archetypes are unique in that you don't have to pay to remove most your powers (your level 17 and level 32 powers, in addition to your travel power(s) are the exception). So to condense what I just said, Free-Forms have to pay resources to remove everything they have in the order that they obtained it, while Archetypes only have to pay to remove advantages, talents, and player-selected powers. Oh, and a good thing to note is that the price you pay to remove your advantages/powers/talents will be significantly more expensive the more you remove - IE, while it might only cost 1G to remove your most recent advantage/power/talent, it could very well cost 40G to remove the one three advantages/powers/talents older than the most recent one. That's kinda a complicated way of putting it, so I apologize in advance - if I did a horrible job explaining it, please say so and I'll give it another shot.

No, apparently they do not. The retcon is tied to the Icon perk [ www.champions-online-wiki.com/wiki/Icon], which is only available to Gold accounts now; given that they did not want Silvers to have access to additional character slots from reaching 40. Do note however, that the Wiki page cited above is outdated and as a result, doesn't mention the Gold requirement.

Actually silver has to do it the same way gold does, I spent 30+ G last night untrain my powers and talents in the order that they obtained.
