Do you really want unreliable freeloading non-subs to have any opportunity to enter a tournament? Bah!

And; Why are people so concerned with how much OTHER people are paying, subscribing is self inflicted....it only affects the subscriber.

Not too sure...I guess it will still only attract certain type of people...

you'll still have your freeloaders but always good to be flexible as pos so the community can increase.....

and potential be part of the no1 site...

expansion, global domination, but thats the way I think...best business practise really....

I think it should be pay per post. Now that is something we could all live with.

At the very least I think RHP should allow all non-subs a one-time free tourny entree. I know I'de like to subscribe, but am still debating given my limited access to the site's features.

In other words. non-subs should be able to "sample the wares" before subscribing.

For those that cannot afford the existing subscription fees then maybe the offer of a pay per move subscription (at a rate determined by the above + profit margin) would allow unlimited games, tournament entries etc at a known cost per move, allowing the user to tailor their play ...[text shortened]... moves made in any given month is charged back the following month.

You know it makes sense!
I say $41.50 per move and if its a move to put one in check, the price is $51.50. To get out of check its $59.95. For a knight fork move, I say $63.95. A double check position move is $75.95.
A threat from any piece move is $80.95. A capture move is $93.50. A checkmate move is $125.95. A draw move is $150.00. A resignation move would be $175.00. I think this is fair for the friggin poor slob who cant afford the yearly subscription fee. NOW tell me what ya think> Sincerely, Trains44
