Message: <blockquote data-quote="Morrus" data-source="post: 5136836" data-attributes="member: 1">One thing folks seem to be doing is concentrating soley on the "losing sigs" part of the plan. Ignoring subscriptions for the moment - assuming you're not a subscriber, and don't intend to be - you'd be losing sigs, but getting a crapload of really awesome stuff for free in return. The Gamers Seeking Gamers functionality on its own is going to be absolutely fantastic; and that's going to be available to everyone.  Now, I can understand people saying "I value the sigs more than the new stuff", or "Not having seen the new stuff yet, I can't place a value on it". That's a determination that everyone has to make for themselves; I'm sure there are people who value sigs over the new stuff that's coming. I also believe that many will find the new stuff incredibly cool. Depending on how much you value each thing, this is a net loss, a break-even, or a net gain. I personally believe that it will be a net gain - and not a small one, at that. Just wait till you see some of the stuff coming (there are coders writing the code as we speak!) One piece of feedback I've received thousands of times over the years is that folks want (a) a great system for finding new gamers based on location and other criteria, populated by a large number of said gamers; and (b) online gaming tools. We intend to give you both of those things for free - essentially at the price of s signature. These things may or may not be worth a sig to you; everyone will vary on that. I honestly believe that these things will add massive value to the site, and are intrinsically linked to the sitre's core functionality.  They're things we really *should* have been doing years ago - but better late than never!</blockquote>
