    It is, talking about subscriptions.

    I remember a few folks in here saying they'd happily pay to have a spam-free forum when it was hitting the fan a few months back...

    I would've potentially subscribed if people like Ellie, Rab and the like were still contributing regularly.

    On the other hand, I was an RPS 'Supporter' for a short while and thought the exclusive content was fairly shit (and sparse), so maybe not.

    If I really thought they needed it I'd probably subscribe regardless of the quality of extra content- that's basically what I've already done at Giant Bomb after years of consuming their 2 main podcasts and nothing else

    Yeah, this. I'd have paid for a reasonably priced EG subscription as the site was a few years ago, but I'm not stumping up to subsidise Edwin's wordwank, Malindy Hetfeld's weird hangups or another of those fucking "Somebody should make a game about..." dribbles. DF is the only bit of today's EG I might be willing to consider paying to support.

    I must be one of the few who said I'd pay to get the forum closed. ;)

    Didn't seem to be anything about the forum at all. Basically will you pay us to read our shit reviews and opinions pieces and be able to comment on them with gifs.

    Will we be getting a cut? I've provided a lot of free content over the years.

    I think it depends a lot on quality/entertainment of the content, sadly.

    That's a shame for you. Hopefully they take your special needs into account Carlo.

    The fact I have the forum bookmarked on all my devices, and not the frontpage, says it all really...

    Pretty much my response there too. I think forumites will be easy to spot & responses ignored.

    Hehe yeah, did the same. Basically just wanted to see what they asked, so went with 3 out of 5 for everything, but it seems it actually submitted it... oops. The most useless response they'll probably get. Oh well.

    Would you be interested in branded apparel? Imagine how much of a cunt you’d look in a eurogamer bomber jacket

    Don't upset MrTom. He's already bought eurogamer tank tops and hotpants for his backyard diva matches.

    I had fun with the free text comments box at the end. Properly cathartic, that was.

    This website would be awesome if there wasn't anything about videogames, it just dilutes the good stuff

    I only put one suggestion in the box and that was that Richard Leadbetter should wear tight Jean shorts in all his DF videos. But he can never mention them.

    I feel very strongly about it.

    Whoosh :)

    I actually got that one, unlike 'Switzerland - the flag is a big plus' which took some explanation.
