    The main thing I use here is the forums, and mainly I don't feel like paying for a service that lacks so much transparency and response time.

    I'd kinda like to know I get some sort of benefit from the exchange.

    Considering the big FU I have gotten in the past, I have been resistant however paying for premium on behalf of others however who maybe can't I am really considering to do it.

    I enjoy the site and have gotten so much from it, so it maybe worth it to also help improve the site.

    Nope, not going to pay a subscription for something I currently already get for free.

    Adblock programs are free, why waste my money?


    Websites come and go every day, if your website requires you having annoying ads, often with popups and malware to stay alive, then I will gladly use adblock until the website shuts down and I go to a new one.

    Is there a money back guarantee if I get banned when a mod doesn't like the words I post?

    Don't put words in my mouth. Not paying for it. And I'm paying for Amazon prime already. Why doesn't it cover this?

    This is also an issue.

    No one put words in your mouth. If you didn't say it the statement obviously does not apply to you.

    The forum moderators are entirely volunteers, so paying Curse won't support anything to do with moderation (which is what I assume you mean by response time).

    Aww, the poor little guy is soooo upset that people are calling him on his shit. Heartbreaking!

    It's amazing how it was clearly aimed at everyone in the original post, now it apparently only applies to like two people on the planet or something. Neat how that works!

    Pay them to stop using some of the most invasive and shitty ads I've ever seen? Lmao. There wouldn't be an ad blocker used on their website if they were even slightly respectful of the performance and security of my desktop. If they can't keep the site running after that exchange its their problem. I don't need their news or forums. We will just gather somewhere else like Discord class servers to discuss things

    Never give money to a website that you've no control over.
    Adblocker...NoScript...plenty of freeware that can control that shitty advertising.

    I would pay for premium if it made it so posts started by shitposters that I have ignored wouldn't show up on the front page for me.
    Topics started by them would also need to not be shown when browsing individual categories etc.

    This and other posts are just making me shake my head.

    If you dislike the moderation team and the site so much, why are you still here? Why not go somewhere else? You and everyone else moaning about how awful MMOC is, you're like people who sleep in a bed of broken glass, complain about it, do nothing, and go to bed the next night on the same bed of broken glass.

    I dropped money for a year. It's dirt cheap, and why not?

    I never whitelist any site for any reason, but I still supported. It's less money than I normally spend in a day for a whole year of premium. I get premium in every site that offers it if I regularly use it.

    I'd say that has an effect on the professionalism, I know some try their hardest but the lack of transparency and response time for questions really doesn't make for something I'd actually fund out of pocket.

    Giving money to this site seems ill justified considering not much will change about that.
