What I'm hearing is...

"We should make a whole bunch of new impliments for donators. Then we should make them for one time customers, that way I can say I already donated and get them!"

Basically people who don't want a subscription premium service because they already have paid cash and have no intention of paying any more but like the idea of a premium service. It's good to hear what the customer wants, sure. In this case it sounds like the customer is asking for a bunch of new features nicely labeled support features and they want them for nothing.

That idea has a little.. ridiculousiality? because the staff would put in the work to implement them but would see little to no income generated from it. So it makes me ask the question. Why would the staff bother?

I still think the service should be (at least partially) subscription based, I think it should at first be extremely simple and easy to implement so it can be improved upon later. Just get it started so there is at least something there.

Sure some benefits can continue after your subscription so you don't have to keep subscribing but I don't want to get into the long list of possibilities since I find that conversation to be unproductive.

My reccomendation is still the Auto G-->. Strictly as an easy way to get the premium service up and ready for more impliments, but still worth paying for. Also notice I've changed my opinion from supporter features being subscription based to partially subsription based.

Wrekx as I wrote no matter how low the limit for getting premium would be I wouldn't be in as I didnt pay a single penny to game developers thus far - which simple fact makes whole your post obsolete ..

If I want this or not, I can't. Simply because I don't have a credit card and I'm not intend to get one neither. So if TFW would introduce a premium, they also should add more payment methods.

Besides that I would like to see that there are more ways to buy gold other than with a credit card. I wouldn't mind to buy packs for gold.

I thought there already was a premium feature.. buying cards.

Everyone can buy cards, and it doesn't matter if you pay for gold or win it, so it's a different thing.
