Well thats the point, I don't want the crap. But would like to have the chance at a random rare here and there although it would be low, and some other fun bonuses. Note, fun, not supposed to be unbalanced.

this idea would be much better if you'd replace the member ship and subscriptions with having a regular account and the option to buy an item in the cash shop or many in order to get an item from the cash shop/a colored name on the forums

I'm not against a subscription per se (maybe with one cosmetical item coming with it once and not every month just so people can show off they supported the devs without a precise idea what they'd like to get out that), I just don't think it fits the system we have now. And I like the system we have now.

special items, special name colors, a special building only special people from the special club can enter.

yet they spent a small amount of money, and did nothing special. gain your status from doing something, not buying it like some ****** that buys stuffed animal trophies instead of hunting them himself :lol: :lol: :lol:

Have you seen, what is happend when H&H has started a monthly payment?

Many angry player...

Sure there are Subs... and they still play... but they would also play if they would have only an itemshop and would maybe spent much more money like with the sub.
And look to the player count at H&N is is not better than before.

Monthly fee would not improve the earning money for the Dev's, but it would be lead into some angry player... and we don't have that much player.

You can implement a monthly payment system, if you have tousands of player daily.... but with 500-600 active (i guess there are only 200-300 or less) you don't win a single buck with a monthly fee.

The one time item could work too. Like I said my idea is by no means perfect, I just think a consistent reason to pay if you wish to have some fun benefits will be good for the game. Opposed to being able to buy an item that enables you to murder for example.

Yes but the Sub is MANDATORY. This is a terrible idea. I am proposing a membership solely for cosmetic/fun benefits that are by no means necessary and add nothing more than an extra fun factor

i will agree to your idea with minor stipulations.

the color of the name is a pastel pink color.

the in game building is located off claim and has a sign out front that says the underachievers club.

the in game item is one of those county fair type participation ribbons.

I suppose if you buy store items other than a membership you are an over achiever? :roll: :lol:

nope, your a guy that bought an item. you also do not get a slew of "im special" bonuses which is what your are requesting and the reason why simple store purchases are not good enough for you. but feel free to continue intentionally missing the point.

For access to more fun features and a paid member forum name, that does not say you are special. It shows that you are a paid supporter of the game. However, it would be possible to remove the idea of a forum color, as I do understand your dilemma with it.
