Well my point is simply this. People will subscribe, or they won't. I had planned to subscribe within the next couple of weeks, because I enjoy the game and the like-minded individuals. I'm starting to get the overwhelming sense that non-subscribers are second-class citizens around here, and that has changed my mind about subscribing and even continuing to play for free. Perhaps a more subtle approach is called for when trying to increase subscriptions, but I certainly recognize that my opinion is in the minority. No, it's not a lot of money to pay for a subscription, but its money I'd rather spend on just about anything else at this point. Case closed.

*takes a deap breath* thanks everyone, now I have a better understanding about the subscription and what should happen afterwards! :-D I'm going to try to send in a check through mail later today, and wait to see what happens next. Well, I guess ....here it goes! :-D

Everyone here, subbed or not, are important but those who pay obviously will get priority over those who don't pay. That's the way it is no matter where you go!

You are right.. people will subscribe or they won't...and if they don't like how it is being unsubbed...then they can change it by subbing. Choice is yours. :)

If you would actually think about it, you would realize that those who do pay, should get priority, and get what they pay for. That isn't being mean, or saying that non-subs arent important, and sorry that you do feel that way :)

It's ashame that you changed your mind about subscribing because Sleuth really is the best game on the internet, and this community can't be beat :) Just my opinion :o) Yes, I'm biased but, it's still true hehe

(you say you wont even play for free....but you know you will be back....Sleuth has that drawing in effect) :o)))

I don't get all this commotion about limited access for non-subbed players. The game already allows a lot of facilities for free. Are there that many online games that offer such a great deal of shareware?

I can understand the decision for allowing subscribed players more opportunities to be able to play. Everybody wants something in return for what they pay for. Is this a privilege? The fact that you are able to do some free-riding because others pay for this game is what I call a privilege.

Can anyone give an example of a game that allows equal access to Non-subscribers?

I have participated in several beta tests where we all had equal footing but when the game went live and the pay version was up the subscribers always get the better options and better access.

Are there actually games out there that give away the same thing to those who do not subscribe the same as the paying customers?

hey, Celia Scarlet, you are not on your own. I haven't subscribed. I NEVER spend money on a game. if it was a real life incident, then yes, I would. But, just so you know, you are not on your own.

I am not subscrbed. Yes, it's annoying when you can't log on, but oh very very fair. Like BadAss said, we are doing some free-riding because others pay. This game was not made for charity, and a lot of hard work has been and is being put into it. I would have subscribed, but as I'm in Egypt (where $1 = 6 pounds), and as I'm barely making ends meet, it is not a wise or practical decision. I'm content with all the times I've managed to squeeze in when there were 59 players :)

Josie, once you reach 7 days old, you can only log on when there are less than 60 detectives on.

Subscribed detectives can log on no matter what.

This is a new rule in effect to help subscribed detectives make better use of their gameplay time.

Ouch... I'm like 5 days old by now and a shiver is running up my spine for certain.

Case is, my time zone is way different than that of the server so hopefully I have some luck there. Usually there are like 58 detectives when I'm on and I seriously will just hope I'm one of the last 2 to get in before it is 60. My dad just doesn't let me subscribe to online things. :(
