    I was thinking of adding an option or changeing membership time from days to hours that your actually playing. That way you would pay only for the time you play and not for the time wasted on things like server downtime and so on. So instead of buying a week, you buy like 20 hours of actualy membership. Just a thout thou so comments and more suggestions are welcomed Smile

    yea but that's how RS make money Razz

    They count on you not playing for 'x' ammount of days while you've got membership and the time still clocks over and you have (well dont have to) buy membership again.
    They cant lose out using that system therefore nor can we Wink

    well, i am more the service user not service provides Razz but you can counter that too by making membership hours more expencive so if like i would buy 24 hours at the same cost as 7 days, i would have to buy more ofthen hours if i can play every day Razz

    yea but at the same time it might limit the number of hours a member is willing to spend on the server if they are limited to a certain number of hours they have membership for..

    My opinion is that we shouldn't do this, we will lose out..

    Not that we get many donations anyway..

    How about a system that you only lose a day if the server is online during that day, therefore if they lose out it's though no fault of ours?
