Whether someone is a sub or a non-sub is competely irrelevant to most things about this site, especially when it comes to the forums.
To say that a non-sub is posting rubbish in the forums is all very well, but to say that it is rubbish BECAUSE they are a non-sub is pretty tenuous. There are fools amonst the subs too, you know.
How about we all stop car ...[text shortened]... y counts? Which in the forums is probably only for questions about clans, tournaments and recs.

Originally posted by Dr StrangeloveI would say that you had to show some sort of commitment to the community, and the only real way of doing that is through a subscription.
So you would consider it a privilege to become a mod???
Stopping non-subs from posting in the forums would be counter productive for the site in general. Some of the better stuff in here is posted by non subs.
And as I have stressed [dunno where you are reading] non subs, on the whole are not complaining about what they do or don't get.😴
Most moaning comes from subs....about non subs.[other than the cheats issue of course] 🙄

There are surely other ways to show commitment to something without throwing money at it.
A case could be made for more mods however choosing to give the responsibility to nonsubs (most of which haven't been here all that long) rather than to subs who have been here and contributing to the forums for a very long time (some of them years) would be downright snubbing them.

so how's about a new sub-mod with resposibility for the protection of the rights[?] of non-subs?
edit:I just know someone's gonna say they aint got no rights.
