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. Except that it would probably go unnoticed unless someone is being really blatant about it. While nothing drastic is going to change, it will be interesting to see just how big of a ban-shield it is, as it seems highly improbable that it will have zero effect on moderators' judgement. Considering how ultra subjective every moderated action can be, I'm pretty sure this won't be an issue. See the TL commandments. I dare anyone with TL+ to spoil game of thrones and see what happen
I've seen more Game of Thrones spoilers in ABL than anything else, shit is like a honeypot

And Meat is Norwegian right? (also I thought you were a Swede, wth)
The idea of TL+ forum doesn't really swing to me, why'd I go on a forum where I wouldn't be able to get everybodies opinions etc, like people won't necessarily be more inclined to talk to you and make more friends that way, all the people I've gotten to know through TL has been through retardedly random circumstances so I don't see the point to it at all
I do see a point in supporting TL though, which I sure-as-hell would do if I actually had an income right now

I caved damn you Nazgul.
+ Show Spoiler +In all seriousness, 20 quid for a site that I browse 2-3 hours a day and that has brought me endless entertainment is more than worth it. <3

i'm getting the 1 year deal.
Liquipedia all on its own is worth $30/year.
i'd like it if Blizzard authorized TL.Net to have their own moderated BNet2 ladder.
TL specialists would stamp out hackers.
TL members paying a fee get a hacker free ladder experience.

So if I buy this, I can repeatedly insult the unwashed masses of normal users without fear of being banned?
No, you jerk. TL+ users will largely be moderated the same way as normal users, and will be held to the same posting standards. The TL+ private forums however may have slightly less strict moderation when it comes to thread and post content. If you buy TL+ for yourself or gift it to others, you are just purchasing some added features and access while supporting TL. It is not a get-out-of-ban free card or a way to feel superior to others.
Aww that's a shame

TL just lost they best virtue and advantage - equality. Sad to see, but I'm hoping only good things will come from that.
