So my subscription ran out a day or so ago and I'm freeloading now. Yes, there are the ads to worry about and the ignore list is no longer available but I don't have any issues yet with service and the ads are no different than ads on other sites (so I don't really even notice them).

I'm waiting to see how the servers respond when busy now...

Yeah, I know but I'm still considering re-upping. I just got pissed about the de-funning of BigSoccer and am not sure if I want to pay for it anymore!

Really, there is no point for me to paying, I enjoy having an avatar that I can quickly search pages for to see where I last posted, thats pretty usefull.. sorta. I'm not sure, I guess $10 or 15 or wotever I paid is not that much but I dunno if I will continue in the summer.

Edit: I originally had every smilie in my post, but Big Brother says the limit is three. That's bull you-know-what.

I think we pay more than those who pay nothing. Therefore we should get a little more out of our experiance, like many imgs.

I didn't pay $33, but I paid something. What do I get then, if not smilies?

Now I'm angry. Will someone please tell me what the different levels of membership are and what you get with them?

I think that the more expensive one removes the ads... the cheaper option does not... but as I'm a constant freeloader I have no greater insight into what else you get... you can edit your guestbook or something I've heard..

I guess we all elected to hide it. :rolleyes:

Thanks for the info. I'll see if I can rep you. Probably not since I repped you once already this decade.
