General RPG DiscussionDiscussion of all RPGs and non-system-specific topics. DM/GM/player issues, settings, etc. Rules discussion belongs in one the forums below.
Right now, I'm looking into the possibility of including ENP's PDFs in the CSA account. So, for $3 per month, you get access to PDFs produced by ENP. I'm currently thinking I'll add one every month or so.
They'll still be available for purchase at various online stores, but I hope this would be an incentive to subscribe. There's a selection of both 3.5, 4E, and even some system neutral products, so while not everything will appeal to everyone, there's hopefully something of interest for most.

IMHO you should do this more like the DDI: people should get access to an online-friendly version with the subscription, but they shouldn't get a pile of PDFs for $3.

Well, we don't have the resources to play around with the formats. We have to use what we have.
If we manage to get a good level of continual subscribers, we can look at doing fancy things like that. I'm working on the numbers, but I'll be setting a target subscription level by a certain deadline.
Since my wife isn't working I can't afford to to renew my CS all at once, but with the $3/month option I can.
Not seeing a option outside of the 1-year and 3-year ones, I decided I could afford to give $3/month and commit for 3 years so I went with the 3-year option. Looks like I was charged the full $75 now (again, I realize I messed up).
Morrus, can you refund $72 of my payment and convert me to the $3/month plan?
Thanks.

Since I already have a CS until 2011 I've just send 100 bucks into Morrus' general direction
Oh, and just as a tip:
Why dont't you add a "donation bar" to the site like like they did at mythtvtalk.com. I think it makes it quite transparent for everyone how much money is needed to keep the site up and running and it might prove as some kind of incentive for people to donate some money to keep ENWorld above sea level.
Edit says: Correction: Not until 2011 but I've just got myself the new CS subscription . Sometimes it pays off to read those bold, fat information bars at the top of a forum.

Not without more information!
If you forward me your PayPal receipt, I can hit the refund button at PayPal and manually take you off the 3-year plan. Then you can resubscribe.
I have added a product to the CSA downloads section! It's book 1 of the METAMORPHOSIS trilogy, a fantastic novel set in the outer planes by Aeryn "Blackdirge" Rudel.
My only problem is that I can't see the month at a time option. This is what I get (in both IE and Firefox):
What about now? It looks like you somehow managed to register without ever confirming your email address! I've moved you from "Waiting Email Confirmation" to "Registered User", which I hope will fix it.
Signed up (finally) for as long as the site's active. The subscription method works for me and I hope it works for a lot of others too. Thanks for the option and thanks for the site!
Best Regards

What about a sandbox? Subscribers would get access and each month would have new content. The sandbox would slowly get filled out and detailed with little plots and places all the way up to big connecting plots and places. It could also get multistated and have guest creators.
Maybe make it useful so someone could just yoink some things for their campaign in a pinch or run with the whole thing.
We have a target of 1000 subscribers by Christmas to know we're on track to making EN World sustainable long-term. That's just over 10 per day. So far, we have 19 subscribers, so we're ahead of target for the first day - although these things always drop off drastically after the first day or two.
What about now? It looks like you somehow managed to register without ever confirming your email address! I've moved you from "Waiting Email Confirmation" to "Registered User", which I hope will fix it.
Not sure how I managed that.
Everything is good now. Thanks for all your help.
