    Re: Wtf @ the new token *mwahahahah*

    Wow...it seems like there are more and more subscribers every day I look and you guys are running out of funds? That is so hard to fathom.

    And no, I am absolutely not saying you guys waste the money you make - obviously it is becoming more and more expensive to run the site, and with Synth keeping the user in mind and eliminating obtrusive ads, I guess it kind of makes sense.

    All I can say is that you guys earn the $3.50 a month. It's a small price to pay for something that I easily get hundreds of dollars of entertainment from whether it be using the forums, or playing the game. More people need to subscribe...

      If you price bandwidth nowadays... you'll see why money becomes a huge crunch. A LOT of sites are actually feeling money troubles, just due to the massive influx of prices on resources that contribute to running a website. There was a news article about it somewhere...

        Well, honestly i'd pay $5 a month.
        Maybe make it so that subbies pay $3.50, and ELITE subscribers pay $5?
        Just a thought for a little extra revenue.

            I would be all for an "ELITE" subscriber section of FFR, but what features would they include with them to please the community within? Personally I would pay $5 just cause. This site's community has given me so many new friends, some of them becoming some of my best friends(i.e. Sprite). So I would just give that little extra just to help out FFR. I don't want to lose the community here.

              This was brought up a while ago in another thread, but FFR needs to have more subscription-exclusive content, such as tokens that are available for subscribers only, so that people want to subscribe. If it's a token, then it won't count towards level ranks, so non-subscribers won't complain (as much).

                This could correspond to the "ELITE" subscriber features. Special 'ELITE' tokens that are available. I'm totally game for this. I'll pay! Synthlight... when you read this... just do it. You know it'll work. It will work cause I said so hehe.

                  I'd GLADLY pay to be an ELITE subscriber.
                  Make ELITE subscribers alpha testers, and beta testers.
                  And I love the token idea.

                  Synth I hope you feel the same way.

                    I'm just happy to see a version 2 on Dendrite its such a nice piece of music and putting bluguerrilla into the equation makes it that much better, its like the perfect match

                    when seeing Dendrite v2 on the token page i was thinking the req is AAA all synth files

                    well going to find a full replay of Dendrite v2 and play with my fingers on top of the replay as if i am the one playing
                    because thats the closest ill ever get :P

                    edit" god that was actually so much fun thanks for the replay Sprite and i think its a fmo btw

                      I'm happy to see there will be a PayPal option, as paying by mobile phone is kinda hard (Europe etc.)

                      EDIT: Wait wow this service works in Europe as well? Cool :O

                        Alright, purchased it, downloaded the album, got the token. Everything works fine.
                        Glad I could help out, even if it's just a bit.

                            It's a great idea. I honestly don't see why anyone would complain about this idea. Like others have said, the token song is a complete bonus. It's an added perk to purchase, and it doesn't count in your rankings anyway. It's a great way to add some actual FFR *content* bonuses to your music purchases, and this site has always been about both the game and the music, so really, it's a very logical and cool addition.

                            I'm a little surprised that this function hasn't been added already, to be honest -- but I'm glad it's being done now. If I hear something cool on FFR, it's nice to know where I can purchase it. Will functionality be added in-engine for purchases (ie. link to purchase page carrying the id of the current played song)?

                              Just purchased it, myself, by the way.

                              I very much support this.

                              Now, if you were able to sell Basshunter albums, I'd be ALL OVER THOSE.

                              Great job, FFR Staff! Keep it up

                                Ditto, all of it.

                                Enjoy the file I made in 3 hours. It's a weird stepfile, imo.
