Discussion: Premium Rank!

Honestly, donations weren't sustainable and accepting items was causing us a lot of problems. I won't go into detail or reasons why.

Nobody is forcing you to pay. The service will remain completely free and your use of Outpost will never cost you anything. If you would like the premium features, then you'll have to pay. It's what provides us with stable income to allow us to keep everything else free.

It's actually saddening to see people complaining about having donated a single key and then asking for a refund when we announce Premium. Servers cost money. Everything costs money. We're providing you a free service, but to keep it free we need some paid customers. That's how business works.

So Outpost is a non-profit webpage? It's hard to believe so if you are asking for $5.00/mo. "to keep the service free to other users" eventhough free user have to watch those ANNOYING ads with loud noises that can't be muted, I suppose that those ads are the ones the pay the most since is a total abuse to the users who have to hear it, the only way mute it is either close the page or press refresh crossing your finger that other ad will appear.

At $5/mo, if there's 5,000 premium members that will be $25,000 bucks each month and TAX-free since they are "donations", so that's the legal gray area you are talking about? That if donations are made in keys then the conversion between keys to cash will need you to pay Taxes? Also how high can be the monthly server costs? $25,000 bucks? I don't think so, this new update asking for "donations" smells like a HUGE profits while evading taxes
