Well in that case i'll have to give you something new to look at in the gill net. Man when that no rules platinum package comes i'm gona have some fun.

What about reduce the membership fee and make it a requirement to access any part of the site.....I'm not a member...that would get me to join...there seems to be no benefit to the member to pay other than that person feels better about themselves.

Have you been in the premium section?

No, but from what some on this post has said I'm not missing much.....am I wrong?
What am I missing from the premium section?
Not trying to rowl anyone up...Just trying to give my perspective.

On the nose dive of membership if mandatory...what if you were able to get a 3 month free trial?

This would also nose dive any future members from joining. I wouldn't pay for a site that I couldn't try before.

This post makes you look like a welfare leach. Why put in anything when I can reap the benefits of other peoples money for free.

I like it as is, premium membership is ridiculously cheap entertainment

It is crazy cheap fun. Like I said earlier. One month free trial then a $4 basic membership. $8 premium. $12 platinum membership. Platinum should be a no holds barred 18yr old minimum section

The people who use this site (market) will determine if the premium extra site is worth the cost.

I am probably like most users, I get what I want for free. So why pay to get more when I am satisfied with what is free?

Because sponsors and paid members are the reason you get your free stuff. It really looks bad when you openly admit you aren't willing to support the site. It's $6 a month. Really. Just a welfare leach. I'm guessing you don't have a business. It take $ to keep this site going. When paid peeps get tired of supporting free loaders and bail there will be no sc for you to visit. You are a blood sucking leach.

HAHA! Yep I have no business. Just on welfare...

This is a business. Whomever is the owner has his/her free rights to put on the internet anything free or for profit. It is the proprietor's decision.

Now, if the "free" stuff is taken away that is the operator of this web-sites deciscion, but he/she may start losing advertisement revenue. Or the people may decide to pay for this service. That is the risk the operator has to make.

Or the operator can start beating down his cost of bandwidth and such. I did that with my business (or am I on welfare)...

But for you to get bent out of shape by me stating a view from a user that the operator can use to improve his/her product and try to raise revenue isn't good form. So stop

...I like many people are not paying because it really isn't necessary. And the operator is making money off of advertising or should be. That's how facebook, yahoo, linkin and others do it. It's a great business model. I use yahoo and linkin in addition to this and I don't pay for those services.

Now a way to get someone like me to pay money is maybe to offer a free preview to the premium. I may see I like or need it and would be willing to pay. Like I said right now, I get what I want. 5 to 10 minute break a day to see if anyone is catching/killing/playing/etc.

Or even offer a payment plan which a percentage is used for marsh restoration or research on Big Lake or such. Again not my decision, but could be a good time to poll the audience. Market it a little or something.

Like I said talking sh it on the internet is fun. I was just being a sarcastic smartazz and trying to get people talking sh it. Yeah I was trolling. Lol
I agree with you that thongs could be done to help intice people to go premium. I like your idea about a free premium trial. Like you said it ultimately isn't up to us.
