I'll be paying, I've tried the others and never get the friendly games that BW offers.

I will be interested to see how it works though, I've got a feeling that the servers will be very empty for a while.

When the stats were with us, (for how long was it?) the total number of players that featured was about 7,000. There were 20 servers then, but that is still a very large proportion of passing trade. There will be none of that with a subscription system. I think we may be very lonely for a while.

Also, as I have mentioned stats, why not make them part of the subscription package? I still have withdrawal symptoms, and we only had them for a matter of weeks.

I'm just glad to see that the regulars here are beginning to come round, the best games I have are with the people who come here, even ECA with his hacks :p

You all need to rope your friends into subscribing and playing, and to get them to rope their friends into it, or itll be a flop and we will indeed be lonely, yes i am paying despite all the banning issues ;)

I am not paying. But thats not just because I'm a greedy mean bastard, but I'm now a full time student so I am poor by default.

That may be true puma, but you'll spend more than that on beer in a night.

Don't be tight, just cough up.

I think im poor, my Parents have just paid for an Extension to the House which is currently been built, which cost a few Grand, ive just left College, where i was gettin paid like £30 p/w, i left hmmm, a month or so ago.

I went the Dole a few weeks back, but they refused to pay me because im still on the College Register until Spetember, so i wont be gettin paid for another 3/4 Weeks.

I have nothin in my Bank, and i have a Cobweb in my Wallet, i dont drink / Smoke or whatever but im gettin no Income what-so-ever

I have about £30, and £14 of that will be goin towards The Subscription.

I have a Car which needs Petrol, so thats another Tenner a week, but because the Extension is getting done, i leave my Car at our Other House (Which is *attempting* to get Sold because Bricks are in our Driveway.

DeadManWalking, atm I have 56k only, but in October I will have uber-fast JANET.

I've got to pay fees, accomodation, food, drink, clothes, stuff, books, transport (how much do you think a train from Oxford to Edinburgh costs?). I also need to have some cash with me all the time in case I get mugged so they wont kill me.

I don't understand all the fuss about student debts. That's life - everyone is in debt. And if you received your education free at the point of delivery, you would still end up paying for it through increased taxes.

Students aren't poor, I know I have only stopped being one recently. Go without one extra pint a montha nd you can pay.

Remember the 24 or 12 quid you might pay is not just for CS servers. Its for bookables, hosting and all the other game servers. Its for the hope of a game free from cheats, lamers and hopefully the lag issues of present.

for anyone begrudging the idea of parting company with £24 here is a simpler solution

sign up at the addy below for £2 and get a game reward card - get your pin code for it while your there

https://www.game.uk.com/reward.asp

then go and sign up for subscription - et voila - £14 and not a penny more :)

no offense to those who think that £12 or even £24 is gonna make them go elsewhere, but not so long ago when playing online went through a rocky phase and pay2play was all talked about, ppl where dreading another £12 a month, so imo £12 a year ? thats nothing. u cant go wrong. and BW svrs are one of the best about.

I'll end up paying, cos with a reward card what is £12 a year? It will hardly be missed! On the other hand, if few people are going to pay, then I don't want to be playing a game that is only half full most of the time. So let's see how it goes
