Subject: Would You Pay $5 A Month For These Features???

Bnet is fine the way it is now, and anyone can get coup for free. So you'd pretty much only be paying to raise the group limit.

I have to pay for enough "services" as it is. (Xbox Live, Netflix, etc.) Im not paying for more, so No.

No way. Defeats the idea of being distinguished enough to have a custom avatar/title.

5 dollars... A little steep for me. Maybe 2 dollars or 2.5 dollars. For 5 dollars, I would want my own signature and be able to change the color of my text. But I believe that forum titles should never be attainable by money. Too sacred.

Jack of all trades, master of none.

No, because coup. The only added benefit would be 50 groups, and no-one can be active in 50 groups.

>Pay $5
>Change title, username, avatar
>>Never pay another cent


Sounds good to me.


I agree. The majority of those features don't require a monthly fee; I only need to use them once.

I have a grudge against them for no reason so take my words with a pinch of salt:

Sounds a bit too Activisiony for me.

  • 04.26.2012 11:10 AM PDT

Maybe if there was a few more features, I might pay for it, but I sure as blam wouldn't respect them for it.

No would not pay for any of that at all.

The only feature I want out of those is being able to join more groups.
I don't really like the idea of turning Bungie.net into a "freemium" site.

  • 04.26.2012 11:46 AM PDT

Considering I'm not even close to the group limit, I think I'd pass on that package.

God no.

Most of what you said is acomplished by coup anyway.

No. None of those would really impact my experience as a user. I really don't care much about my avatar, I couldn't even tell you what my title is right now without looking, I don't really want to change my username, and I'm only in three groups here now.

It's a metaphor for the 07s' lack of identity. too old to be newfa­g, yet too new to be oldfa­g, we wander b.net in search of a home, forever trying to be something we are not.

First and foremost, I'm not paying money to participate in an internet forum.

Second why do you need to be in 50 groups?

How about this. I'll buy Bungie's next game and expect forum features to be included.

No... 5 bucks a month for features that are free to use with a script is ridiculous. Add in many other websites already allow you to use custom avatars and signatures for free.

If Bungie wanted to generate more money then they might as well just add more advertisements on the site. However, for 60 bucks a year we better get free DLC for their next game as well.

I can't deal with the visual vomit that people would create, that's why I had to rid myself of coup.

I'm just wondering how much you guys would be willing to pay to customize your b.net experience.

For $5 a month ($60 a year), you would be able to:

-make your own custom avatar
-have your own custom title
-be able to change your username once a month
-join 50 groups (instead of 25)

So, would you pay for all that? Why or why not?

I wouldn't pay for these. Having a custom avatar would be cool, but it doesn't really matter, I like having set titles, I would like to change my username, but not that often, and 25 groups is more than enough for me.
