I must ask, why?  I personally look forward to Fridays to fly in a more realistic arena.  That extra charge would chop out quite a few I think.  I know for certain I wouldn't pay it.

lol, stoopid!:p

what he means is, he only likes flying in the SEA, and doesn't like paying for time in the MA that he doesn't use.

I dont follow the logic that fewer numbers = realism.  The CM team is in charge of setup and organization of events, have you spoken with a CM?  During my tour on the team, I know several events would have killed for higher numbers... what benefit do fewer numbers play?

That's what i was saying before it was so stoopidly pointed out to me that my thinking was incorrect.  I was thinking that if there was an extra charge there would be even fewer people in the SEA then there already are.  Disregard my statement from before.

I know of several players that would jump at that. I don’t know if HTC has ever considered that. The biggest issue IMHO would be charging players for events that are run by volunteers. CM’s work hard behind the scenes and put in a lot of hours every month, but they are volunteers. It is not their job and the first time an event was not run or something went wrong HTC would come off looking tainted.

I have always been under the impression HTC prefers to offer all they have for a single price.

yeah i agree, just not worth paying 14 a month to play for 8 hours a month.
