The premium account is similar, but it's not a recurring subscription, you buy 20/60/180 days at a time.
Ahh. Gotcha. Thanks. Want to describe it properly.
I had at one time suggested being able to buy blocks of hours in AH (still have all-you-can-eat subscription but have it as an alternative).
There are some folks who might only want to play only very occasionally. Or just an event. The event may span a month cross-over and they don't want to pay for two full months. They can open and close the account but they have to go beg for their handle each time?
Blocks of hours might be something a parent can gift a child without committing to an ongoing subscription. Might be something to help people who don't feel they would play often enough for an ongoing subscription to convince themselves can be justified. Does it really make sense mathematically? Maybe, maybe not. But a lot of time consumer purchasing choices have large components of psychology involved and not just math. That's why things are sold for $14.95 instead of just saying $15.
Bottomline, if what you have been doing for 20 years has stopped working, maybe it's time for some creativity and flexibility in your approach.
I love to fish. If you go to your favorite spot and try your favorite lure and can't get a bite, you can either stubbornly stand there and keep pounding the same lure in the same spot for hours and go home empty handed, or you can try moving to a new spot, try a different lure, try different depth, try a different presentation, try and find another pattern that will produce and go home with your limit.
