so i got one thing wrong.. but the majortity of the stuff you get with premium i never used!!! I would much rather just pay a fiver a year or something to pay towards the running costs as i can imagine the cost of running a site this big..

I see where Danny is coming from, people like me dont want guides or anything like that but still enjoy the site.

what did you get wrong? i was asking if you where agreeing with my idea of being able to purchase a larger pm capacity in the shop for a fiver a year

maybe even include pager messaging with that?

i read it totally wrong

ignore me

something like what your saying makes sence yeah

Simo^p · 25th March 2008, 13:40

an option could be given for improved forum priveleges... maybe larger inbox, pager use, possibly image atatchment? Not access to premium forums or content though.

Not convinced... but see what people think in this thread.

Lee_P · 25th March 2008, 13:52

i suppose technically if people want to contribute then what you say simo would be a good idea i agree that acces to prem forum needs to be for full paying members

baker556 · 25th March 2008, 14:35

for a student like myself £15 is alot lol....could you do student discount? got the ucas card

Robb · 25th March 2008, 14:39

£5 for bigger inbox, pager and premium forums would be fair crack.

that would minus how to guides, saxo content, discounts etc.

tbh for me i would rather do it the other way round like all the guides etc without the bigger inbox....

Andy72 · 25th March 2008, 14:47

All I’d say is, how much did you spend last time you went on the town, pissed most of it up against a wall and woke up with a banging headache. Then ask yourself the question “is £15 for a whole year expensive when supporting a community forum such as saxp”

i think thats very reasonable when you consider saxp hardly ever goes offline (once a year if that) when compared to other 'rival' sites

i personally feel your being abit tight but i think maybe an option in the shop to increase your inbox size for say 5 quid a year would suit you?

twice last night

Yeah, that sounds exactly what I was aiming for.

Something for us forum goers, that don't need saxo content anymore, but see a small donation as fair.

betty02 · 26th March 2008, 10:29

So have two lesser options

1.

Larger inbox, and pager £5

2.

How To Guides, saxo content and discounts. £5

premium forum should be left for premium members as thats what it is, if you want to go there that abd you pay, £15 wasn't much forget about it after a while, i hardly ever use premium chat or anytnhing but i pay it to keep the site running

Dan-Subtle^m · 26th March 2008, 12:19

tbh i can see where people are coming from and i think maybe a cheaper alternative could be looked into but i dont think the cheaper options should include access to the premium members area.

i think the pricing is about right for all the options as i was a member on SSC and i paid the membership and only received one newsletter and my card, also the forum was pants and i found myself moving from SSC to Sax-p within a month and i was getting the answers i needed on here for nothing.

I will be paying my premium membership tomorrow.

Barry123 · 26th March 2008, 12:49

SSC is £20

Saxp is cheaper, more frequented, and has me on it - £15 is good value comparatively.

jaybiss · 26th March 2008, 12:53

tenner for just online ads

Its quite ironic that the people asking for the cheaper option mainly want it to hammer the forum tools... pager, inbox, etc.

The pager is the MOST resource sapping tool on the server and therefore in theory should be slapped with the biggest price tag.

Still interested to see how this thread develops...

jpsaxo · 26th March 2008, 14:20

I might pay up soon as im pretty bored with ssc tbh, and probs use this forum more than any other now

£10 for the online membership is a bargain imo

Dan-Subtle^m · 26th March 2008, 16:55

SSC was a complete waste of money and as i said not only is this site cheaper to become a premium member it also has a lot more useful information on it and there is always someone on here to help you out when you need it.

look forward to becoming a premium member tomorrow.

jaybiss · 26th March 2008, 16:57
