The emails title: Bye Bye to Membership FEES
This i thought, at least they are going to stop charging their playing members £5 a month at last, but then i read the rest of the e-mail.

Membership payments are no longer.
We will not be able to promise the dedicated server unless we charge £10.50 per
month.
There will not be membership fees from today.

Hahaha they are scraping the membership fees and just charging double, what a bunch of nobs.

For £2500 i could pretend for an hour a day to like all the hardcore yet ultimatly crap CSS players.

It did cross my mind to run an operation like that. If you've got say 50 members at 5 quid a month = 250 quid = 3000 a year. The server, for a 12 month term costs 445 quid. That equals 2500 pure profit to an admin willing to fleece kids.

Considering they let every Gayby in the world join if they will fork out, i would have thought that could afford to keep their server at £5 from all members.
I bet one of the admins has been keeping a bit for himself and so the money ran out.
They charge £10.50 per month to play, we pay £8 and have a lot more fun in WoW
Hmmmmm...
Bwahahahaha.
