[QUOTE="Markn, post: 5261914, member: 21827"] Morrus, I know you are looking for cancellation reasons. But this reason has kept me from both subscribing and it would cause me to cancel. Stability - ENWorld seems to go through fundamental shifts every 6 months or so. In terms of account benefits, plans, options, what you can do on the site/what you can't do on the site and so on. The simple fact is, I don't have faith that what I sign up for - whether its a month or a year - is what I will get at the end of my subscription. Too many features change for my personal tastes. Additionally, the fact that I keep hearing the site is going in the red also makes me leery too. I understand that you want to improve the site, to make it more profitable but the methods feel haphazard at best. To be honest, my main reason is financial constraints at this point, but once those are resolved, the stability issue mentioned above is what keeps me from signing on board. One last note: I also think Monthly is a terrible option. I think users find it a pain to have to re-up each month or track the ongoing debits from their accounts. I think it would be far more successful as a yearly subscription - but that is just my opinion. ;) I truly do hope you find the magic formula! Edit: Kzach sums up what I was trying to say about the monthly subscription quite well. Basically, its easy to get someone signed up but its even easier to have their account get cancelled. [/QUOTE]
