Tell Me More About Apolyton Plus

[Sprayber]

Is it really worth it. I've been thinking of throwing a little support polys way, but what are the most convincing reasons for me to subscribe.

[Locutus]

See the testimonials: http://apolyton.net/members/?action=test

In summary, most important advantages:

1) You're supporting the site
2) The whole site becomes faster to use
3) No ads -- pop-up, redirect, banner or otherwise
4) Bigger avatar (if you care about that)

As for myself, as a heavy PM user, I'll add that I absolutely love the extra PM storage space and the higher maximum length of PMs.

Plus Markos keeps adding more 'minor' features on a regular basis (see http://apolyton.net/forums/showthrea...hreadid=116530)

[Skanky Burns]

By far the biggest selling point is that you will be helping Poly.

Aside from that, you will not be subjected to ads ever again.
Larger avatar.
Not subject to load limits to the extent that non-subscribed people are.
Not subject to flood control.

These are some of the benefits that I find really nice, but of course there are many more.

[MarkG]

here's the list of benefits (i forget a couple on that list )...

Yeah I went ahead


Any chance we can change the supporter/inmate tag to something unique any time soon?

[Kloreep]

It certainly would be neat if there was a PHP script or something to generate custom title bars.

Though we do already have avatars.

[MarkG]

yes, you DO have avatars (and bigger ones)

the plus icon is to show your status as a great human being

[joncha]

Nevermind that it's what the people want...

I was going to do this until I looked at the price

And the only reason I wanted to do it was for the larger avatar .

I just feel the lifetime membership is waaay too high a price.

[MarkG]

well, it WILL last you a LIFETIME

[Skanky Burns]

But if he happens to die next week...

On the other hand, if he died next week its not like he would need the money anyway.

[Atahualpa]

Read some of my slogans here: http://apolyton.net/forums/showthrea...39#post3401739

Maybe they will give you the extra kick to join

[Alex]

I'm considering to sign it too, but I'm having some financial problems right now, so perhaps I'll do in the next year...

I didnt get a lifetime membership. I picked a less expensive option to see if I like the difference.

i forgot to note that you can start your ApolytonPLUS Experience with just $2

[Atahualpa]

And if you live in the Eurozone that's even less!

[DrSpike]

Looks like he signed up.

[conmcb25]

Its worth it just to get rid of the adds

at least IMHO

or MarkG and Dan may say they are both no longer interested in Civ games and close this place down

[Bloody Monk]

For any question there are usually hundreds of reasons to say no; but, no matter how convincing your reason is to you, saying no to PLUS is a losing choice. Not having the money is the only exception, but there, you didn't have a choice anyway. And, really, making up things to be afraid of is just pathetic and so very sad.

Come on in; you will enjoy life in Stepford.

i'm sure you're certain that we're honest enough that we would refund people if we ever did that....
right?

[DrSpike]

A better response is that of course you wont lose interest in Civ.

entirely possible. I'm not real intersted at the moment, however. But I'm addicted to this place. I'll never leave

Then just buy the one year subscriptions then.
