I think the Paizo subscription display is a canny way to link geekish competition to sales, as you said: 'fanboy one-upmanship'. Kind of like the Community Supporter tag here.   I've never seen anyone dismissed on the Paizo boards for lack of subscriptions. Every Internet forum has a different method of measuring 'cred'. Here it's community support, date of join and post tallies, which are posted right under your name. I have like 14 posts at the moment, joined in 2008, and do not donate. I am sure people dismiss me as not a 'true' ENWorlder since I don't have 1,000+ posts here, a five-year-ago join date, or the pretty green avatar border. As I mentioned before, if I had stumbled on this site a little earlier in the decade, I'm sure I would be a staunch supporter, but I didn't. All I was trying to say is it is just a perception issue more than anything else why I don't post here and post on Paizo. You say you have been here since it was 'Eric's site' (more fanboy one-upmanship?) I don't even understand the allusion. :/ Once again I am not slamming ENWorld, I am sure it is a wonderful site, I am just happier posting where I feel comfortable. Which is why I was answering the OP's original posting with a dissenting view to give a glimpse into why some post on Paizo and not ENWorld.</blockquote>
