    what do you mean


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,346 ✭✭✭✭homerjay2005


    ive always wanted to know what the advantages of it are, so guess this is my chance to learn...


    so, why would people do it??


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,247 ✭✭✭✭6th


    I do because I have gotten a fair bit from this site. If i could put money directly on the bedside table of the admins I'd do that too!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,263 ✭✭✭Varkov


    6th...........you're a ****ing fag.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 27,944 ✭✭✭✭4zn76tysfajdxp


    I don't because I don't have a credit card and I can't afford €50 a year. Damn recession.

    [Edit: ^^^^^ for fecks sake, he got in just before me!!! ]

    +1
    Lack of monies is ze problem.


    As far as I know, the main benefits are getting a customised avatar, being able to change your name, and access forums like Sex and Sexuality.


    I'd just do it to change my name.
    Tis useless.
    :o

    No, its optional and the admins have never pushed anyone to give. Despite that many regular users still subscribe because they want to give something back.

    Frodo crossed with Batman......fail, or epic?
    I can't decide....


  • Posts: 11,928 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    At the risk of taking down the tone of AH.....me thinks Bijoux is a cool username.

    I don't subscribe because I think access to SandS might scar my innocent little mind for life and I mind my 50 euro notes. At least for the time being.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,346 ✭✭✭✭homerjay2005


    hows many people subscribe?

    I doubt that. Even when he's playing, he's a violent sh1t



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,263 ✭✭✭Varkov

    ive always wanted to know what the advantages of it are, so guess this is my chance to learn...


    so, why would people do it??

    Access to the sex & sexuality forum I'd say would be the biggest plus.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,148 ✭✭✭✭KnifeWRENCH


    I don't subscribe because it's cheaper than subscribing.

    Yes, there are benefits to subscribing. But I prefer enjoying the main benefit of non-subscribing - not having to pay for a subscription.

    Having said that, I've thought about it and might do at some point. (Custom avatar would be nice....)

    Aw shucks :o

    +1 on the S&S issue, I think once I would start going into it, I would never leave....eek!
    Epic fail I think. :o

    LOL then its time to subscribe dude.
    Or change your avatar to something that goes with Frodo.
    If such a thing exists. :D
