Tried to buy it, forced me to pick what state I live in. And no way to get around it, so this is only for americans or am I an idiot? So I lied and said I was from Philly but then it said my creditcard was invalid. I'm reduced to tears.

I guess that is cool and all, but to be honest, I don't see the point of having this.

You overestimate the private forum

it's a single subforum. There's no TL+ SC2 forum, or TL+ BW forum

There's just TL+. It's not going to suck away membership from the rest of the site.

The price totally surprises me. I thought it would be 1 dollar a month or something ... this is still only a forum.

Why is it visible to others that you pay for tl+, that might be the first step towards a two class society in here and I dont see why this will do any good.


You could easily just block the gold images with adblock

and you think everybody will do this? I highly doubt that. I would even go that far and imagine that if in doubt, mods wont ban a tl+ customer, whereas a regular tl user will get the ban. This will happen, because nobody wants to lose a paying customer.

I use addblock, even on TL. I tried unblocking it here, but switching through streams was such a pain in the ass, that I had to activate addblock again. Still, I actively want to support TL, so I ordered some clothes. That kind of support is only positive, whereas I see many problematic points within tl+ ...

Have you read any of nazgul's posts responding to the exact request that TL+ purchasers have some kind of mod immunity? He's pretty clearly against it.

I read it and I even believe him right now. Still, I have experienced things like this in the past and views on certain points can (often "will") change.

TL is my online to-go-place and I hope this site will be around for a very long time. Because of that I write my concerns down. What will happen with the extra dollars TL will take in? Hire some vivid TL users and pay them fulltime? perfect! for now. What if TL generates less money in the future and they need to ban some tl+ customers with the risk to lose them, which might lead to the decision to fire a befriended coworker. They wont fire the friend, so they wont ban the tl+ customers. I´m not talking about the 100% obvious bans, but the subtleties.

And I dont only see the problem with the bans. What if tl+ customers that used to post the regular forums get pissed off by some users and only use the private forum from that point on. I know some other forums where coremembers used to do that and the websites lost all the other members over the time of months and years, which lead to their insignificance.

The moderation will remain the same because it's part of the USP (Unique Selling Point) of TL. So one person paying TL+ vs all the negativity that would come from allowing someone to go unmoderated when they should be does not add up. So I think you can rest assured about the TL Moderation will remain as it is.

I didn't see that when I bought it, I doubt it's US only. All you need is a Paypal account.

That's weird, it should not be doing that. It should have an option for country. If you are logging into a PayPal account, that account may already be registered to a certain country, but you can checkout with just a credit card too:

Paypal works in Sweden too. I'd go to https://www.paypal.com/se to try and sign up for an account though.

While not being a fan of pay only features, this is the way to go imho. Pure adds will not cut it on the internet anymore and I think this is a wise move in general and the features are not something that locks out people who won't buy. Only real critique is that it seems a bit too expensive. I guess you might have calculated that it works out better (higher price, less buyers), because many people will just buy it to support anyways; so what do I know.

It's pretty obvious Hot_Bid meant that it's not a recurring subscription, but that it's a one-time purchase for the time you choose.
