Premium Content lock

Does anyone else think that this website locks too much behind the subscriptions? I am fine with things like the limited puzzles and bots, but on the other hand you have the joke that is ONE lesson a week, and only 1 to 2 practice drills available for each subject. Honestly i would be fine if they kept locking SOME things behind the subscriptions, but give us a few more things without it.

Let’s see... you get to play people from all over the world and have a taste of premium content, and you pay $0.00?

You do realize that all the money you’ve contributed to maintaining the site, paying employees, paying for content creators, and everything else adds up to a few pennies a month through ads, right?

So, umm, no. I think you’re being ridiculous. For the cost of a couple of coffees at Starbucks, you can get a gold membership. Which one is the better deal?

Let me rephrase my statement: I definitely think that premium would be worth it if i got it, but i am a bit young and i don't have an income yet. All i am saying is that maybe they could let there be a little bit more so i could decide on whether it is worth the time and money. Either way i will continue going to the site.

A gold membership is $30 for a whole year. You don’t get unlimited stuff, but you get a lot. You can ask your parents what you can do to earn $30 so they can pay for it. Even if you have very little money, you can find a way to cobble together that much.

The "bobo" statement and the gold membership

Avatar of Spaghettioli

I guess i was only considering the diamond level. I can definitely afford the gold membership. I am just a cheapskate when it comes to saving money

I am very grateful for what is offered for free.  The only things that confuse me about pay to play is the premium for the same stuff that is free elsewhere, like opening book /databases or analysis.  You can download and do analysis all day free, for an extra click or two, so why charge for that?  And there are a dozen solid free databases out there too, again just a click away.  The lessons, tv, videos, puzzles, alternate games, tournaments, ... there are plenty of great things they can and do charge for.  But again, I get what I pay for, and I am grateful for it.
