PSU: Subscriptions

[Hamma]

The staff has discussed this possibility a bit, and I figured I would get the users involved to see if there is any interest.

We have disgussed the possibility of a monthly subscription, but before you freak here is what it would involve. The amount would vary depending what you want to pay. (The existing subscriptions to buy post counts etc would remain the same, but they would become a one time buy (lifetime)) The minimum would be between $5.00 and $10.00/mo - and you could pay more than that if you wanted to. It would allow you access to some features other members do not have, such as access to profile pictures, and a special forum which non paying users cannot see. It would be subject to different rules than non-pay forums (still unknown) Normal users who do not pay would continue about normally.

Anyway, what do you think? Comments / Questions / Flames

EDIT: It would also hide the google advertisments

/bump That'll go over like a swastika at a bar mitzvah. I wouldn't suggest it.

Are we paying for flat access, or to retain our purchaced abilities permanently?

[Peacemaker]

Like I said b4. I need paypal

[Doppler]

I'd pay, but then again I already have, I think this is a good model for you guys. Sure not everyone will pay, but they just get to see the adds.

[Fragmatic]

I would love to man, I know how much you put into this site, and I'm surprised you're not bankrupt!

unfortunately, I don't have much money, no way to pay you either sorry man

Much for the site

[Hamma]

As I said in the post, normal users who do not pay would retain their current access.

i dont have enough money to pay for it

[Biohazzard56]

Id be willing to pay $5 a month, but id like to see what features are at each price point
like $5, $7, and $10 an month

[VashTheStamped]

if i give hamma a shiny penny ill expect it to have the same effect as $50.00


EDIT...i might pay some mulah = )

[Rarzo]

I'd do it if it was a one-time fee.

$20,$25,$30 tops. I'm not a big fan of monthly fees.

It can't be $10 per month! Thats almost as much as the game itself!

[AztecWarrior]

As long as you don't disable the features we have now, then I'm OK with it.

[NoSurrender]

i wish you would take money that i send via snail mail.

[Sputty]

I'd do this if I could sent it using normal mail, or you had a sign up system with CCs. Not paypal. Paypal isn't really working well for me.

[Hamma]

Mailing the fee is out of the question, I have enough work already

We already have one time fee's for things here
