I'd prefer some sort of middle ground, but given the choices I'd rather just get on with both as best I can.
What are the other options? Isolation or constant whining? |

This thread is a real shambles. I am surprised Forbes is being as reasonable as he has been above. I am not sure I would if it were my site.

| Re: Ello from Ket Depends how much you think of it as 'his'.
No offense intended Forbes, I assume you know that though. |

This thread is a real shambles. I am surprised Forbes is being as reasonable as he has been above. I am not sure I would if it were my site. | £30 a year.
Supply and demand, in my opinion, would place purchases of 'Sponser Status' at a purely altruistic level; free advert blocking software services are available easily, and if you want to have unlimited PMs, then simply direct people to your e-mail account.
It makes the purchase a pointless frivolity, bought for altruistic reasons, or possibly as conspicuous consumption. These two reasons alone are not really enough to encourage me to buy anything.
If the price were lowered to a more reasonable level, then perhaps I would buy; for purely convenient reasons, but I would much rather spend five minutes of my time being inconvenienced than, say, five pounds to not. |

| Re: Ello from Ket People take this way too seriously. It's clearly obvious they were taking the piss. Plenty of people pointed that out. It's not a big deal, surely?
