I paid hoping to get the best trainers AND for requests for options to be listened to without nonesense- that is, it becomes a "Business Relationship." We pay so that others will code the very best trainers for ALL the best and newest releases for us. Could be a motto "You pay so that others May Code with Excellence."
I think somebody who puts their MONEY where their mouth is deserves to be listened to more than cheapskates. After all, its only 10 dollars a year. Whats with all the nonpaying "members?" If far more members paid it would make it a lot easier for the sites owner to get out MORE megatrainers and hire more talent. Whats better than getting paid for something you love doing and might be doing anyway? Hehe, I think some porn stars have made that same comment, lol.
I say the other members, if they want a trainer for this game from THIS site need to flat out message the OP and say "here is my money, can I please have a trainer?" Instead of "Can I get a trainer, even though I am a cheapskate?" Lets say that 100 people emailed Pwizard and said "I will become an unlimited member *IF* you make a bug free trainer with such and such options." Ok, lets do the math: That is $1,000. For a
$1,000 I bet an incredible trainer could be made. The best solution is simply for a LOT more people to become Unlimited members. Its only $.83 cents a month or so - less than a cup of coffee a month or less than a soda a month. Thats nothing, even a teenager working at a fast food place can afford that.
More subscribers means more money which means better "Customer Service" so to speak. Customer service in this case means more megatrainers with the options we all want, maybe a SPECIAL part of the FORUM itself for paying members *ONLY* where paying member actually get realtime updates on things like options being added AND paying members get listened to OBVIOUSLY over non paying members with regards to requests for both trainers and options. Now, that could be an incentive for more people to shell out that soda-a-month. Put even more limitations on the cheapskates and increase incentives to buy.
It worked for Gamespot, IGN, etc.. BUT that means creating more incentives and setting up a higher profit business model.
So to ALL nonpaying members *MONEY TALKS* BULL**** walks. Every good business listens to their customers. If enough customers complain and suggest, than a business generally evolves, and gets even better. BUT I don't see a whole lot of Unlimited members here saying, "Ok, thats it I am fed up with no scarface trainer made from this site so you won't be getting my money next year." If 1,000 paying members said that you are looking at a possible loss of $10,000. So, with regards to me, I see it as a business/customer relationship. We pay for a PRODUCT and a SERVICE - not because we necessarily appreciate it, but because we wantit. Like when I buy a box of cereal or car or whatever I don't think much about which factory made it or how hard the factory maker worked. I just want to EAT the cereal and I just want the car to be THE BEST for the money. For a service, I want the best SERVICE for my money. Every high profit business runs on a customer service model. Except for maybe the damn health industry :/
So a forum where only paying members can request stuff from YOU sheep and be taken seriously and they paid for the right (ego and FLAME free and I am NOT referring to you, just in general- there is no room for it when MONEY gets involved) and maybe some other paid talent where the customer gets satisfaction and good customer service would be too cool.
Also in that paid only section of the forum Pwizard takes his customers sugesstions on site changes, options, more trainers (and what I referred to earlier), sets up polls and actually changes stuff to suite his cutomers needs. You get PAID appreciation, we get the best product and MORE product/services. It works! So PONY up the money PEOPLE!
