You just dont seem to grasp the fact that freebies who do not upgrade are worthless in terms of the future viability of this site, if an increasing number dont contribute then it will stagnate.

But by even still by making cc a better experience is an incentive to pay the $20 and play any amount of games.comic boy wrote:You just dont seem to grasp the fact that freebies who do not upgrade are worthless in terms of the future viability of this site, if an increasing number dont contribute then it will stagnate.

its like 10 cents a day for a year to have unlimited, just pay up. its nothing to get premium, its a very nice price for all that is offered. pay or shut up, i agree with comic and illiad

That's fine... can I send you my $20 money order and you can paypal my membership payment? I refuse to get paypal because of past experience with them and the fact that they ripped me off for $400 and froze my account because one of my ebay buyers ripped a pile of people off and they thought we were connected in some way because he bought a pile of stuff from me... It's garbage. If they opened other pay methods beyond paypal. I would already be a member...michiganfan22 wrote:Iliad wrote:But by even still by making cc a better experience is an incentive to pay the $20 and play any amount of games.comic boy wrote:You just dont seem to grasp the fact that freebies who do not upgrade are worthless in terms of the future viability of this site, if an increasing number dont contribute then it will stagnate.

Hi. I think that new members should be kicked out of a game after one turn miss, or if that's too strict, then two misses, and then after having completed one game, or once they've managed to take three turns without missing a turn or something, then they are given the right to miss two turns like everyone else.
