Premium Membership Extended

I was quite vocal in pushing for hardware upgrades on the forums and in what I perceived as a lack of communication about the problems affecting game play for some of the membership.

I know the server upgrade and all of the other performance issues were unexpected and reacted to as fast as the resources allowed, and I appreciate the efforts made to correct the situation.

Kudo's to the powers that be for the gift of an extra two weeks on my Premium Membership. Thank you for recognizing the inconvenience and frustration of the members, and offering some good will, understanding, and a bonus. Excellent management.

For better or worse, I love this site. The hours of entertainment justify the adjustments of code and hardware, and are well worth the pittance they charge for fees.

...we would all have made improvements sooner...but then hindsight is a very rare thing.

I like many others, i'm sure, think the 2 week bonus is an excellent gesture and very good business sense.

Personally I would gladly sell my house, children, the dog and a kidney in order to fund any further developments on this wonderful site...you just need to ask.


NB...TBH I would like to keep the dog.

thank you guys for that. =)

wasnt expected at all. a nice surprise.

i cant even buy a board game risk for the cost of this subscription, and this place has a bank of willing players constantly on tap, and a lot more variation and creativity around.

so cheers for keeping this place a great place with great atmosphere.
