Seriously.... Just went to renew my membership (and have been a member for YEARS, only to find that they only do memberships on a billing system now. I understand the easiness of having it billed on a monthly basis like xbox live but what about those people that cant afford to link their Paypal or bank card to their dA account. I don't have money in my account every day.
Not even Microsoft have just a billed by month or 12 month system. They still have the option to just put a month on through vouchers. I could understand if dA kept the 1 month and 3 month pre-paids and then left the others as a billing system. Just smacks of poor forethought to me.
Premium membership isn't a god worthy thing. Hell, I was a normal member for about a year before I got it for my birthday from a friend that got banned for some reason, and I was alive and active before.
DA wants money, so they rip you off. Go get some points and buy them with it, they would not bill you.
This is not what the post is about. I buy my own subs. It's about dA shooting themselves in the foot by removing a way for people to buy subscriptions without having to do it in a roundabout way or sign up to a billing service.
