Suggestion Just a suggestion about premium membership

    I had a suggestion which i'd like to share about premium membership.
    Why not add an option for weekly/1 week membership(s)?

    Since there are members who earn limited amount of money every week :)
    It'd be like a "trial" before they go for a big leap.

    Just a suggestion i thought i should share.

    Thank you :eek:

    Then people will say why not a 1 day trial option too? In the beginning it was just 3 month, 6 months and an year.

    Trial for what purpose??? There is nothing special in it that you will need trial.
    Whatever is there in it is shown there in the payment page...
    If there would have been trial many would have created new threads with premium feature to stand out of crowd.

    Yeah ^, people would just buy the premium, make their threads highlighted and take a cheeky peek in A51 (steal alien secrets) and then not renew. Premium threads don't lose their green-y-ness after premium has expired afaik.

    The system is already relaxed enough . If you can't get 25 usd then you don't need premium . I would hold premium for 1 year minimum but that would be bad for business .

    Speaking of smileys how about more smileys for premium members ? It's unlikely that we'll abuse them since there's not that many of us and we're mature enough to to spam like a newb . I think it would be a nice touch . But i think that it might be difficult to implement .

    Any opinions ?
