Important: Please Read! Changes Are Coming!

Why not just go with Copper, Silver, Gold, Electrum, Platinum, Diamond, Gold-Pressed Latimuum, then Unobtainium?

But using Electrum Tier might cause people to associate the tiers with particular editions of D&D. We wouldn't want people to think the site was only for discussing pre-3E D&D.

So as not to offend anyone maybe they should just be named "$3 USD Subscription" and "$6 USD Subscription." Keep it generic. You wouldn't want to actually add any kind of gaming flavor to the names in case it's not a member's game of choice.

Morrus, if you do name the subscription levels after 4E tiers, I promise to subscribe.

 

[darjr]

eh, I don't have a problem with the 4e tiers. I thought it was neat.

But subscriber and patron for the two paying tiers actually sounds better to me.

Sorry, I'm already giving him money. Vote with your wallet.

How is saying "do this and I will give you money" not voting with your wallet?

I've been a community supported before. I'm just letting Morrus know that if you discontinue your subscription due to this "issue", I will be there to take up the slack immediately.

Just want to add, if I have to pay for a sig, I hope you plan on disabling the ability for board users to set them as not viewable. If it cost me money, then people should have to see it to read my post.

Guy who cares too much about sigs here.

I leave sigs visible, but I put posters on my "Ignore" list if their sigs are too annoying relative to the value of their content.

That feature will still work.

It was more tongue in cheek for me, but may be something to think about for others. My sig dosen't mean that much to me at all.

Count another paying member as not overly thrilled with the tiers being named for the 4e tiers. It won't really influence me in and of itself but it does feed into the image of this as a 4e board, which it is not completely.

 

[Mouseferatu]

Oh, my God. Really, people?

Of all the things in this world, or on the internet, or on this messageboard, that you could possibly worry about, you're going to get offended if Morrus names the subscription tiers after the tiers of 4E?

Really?

I'm sorry, but using those names does not in any way imply that ENWorld if a 4E site. It implies exactly one thing: That the owner thought it was cute to use the names of the current edition of the game.

You don't like 4E? Fine. You don't like D&D at all? Fine; there's still a place for you on this site.

But you're going to be offended by it? Honestly and truly offended?

I've spent years building a rep for being polite and diplomatic, here and on the other forums I frequent, and I intend, for the most part, to stick with that. But I have to say that, honestly, even for the home of hyperbole that is the Internet, that's some of the most ridiculous, nonsensical, self-entitled claptrap I've ever heard, and I can only hope that those of you making such a claim are playing an April Fool's joke on us.
