Today we announced that the subscription price for WinCustomize was going to go up $10/year from $20 to $30. Now, of course we had to come up with a good justification for this, something that would fool the sheep of the forums into believing we did this for their own good and that they're getting the better end of the deal.
But, just between you and me? Complete BS.
As some of you may know, today's Angie's birthday, so as a gift the company bought her a new car...
So that would have probably accounted for a $2.50 increase per subscription, but some of us were looking at that car and asked "What about us?" After some haggling and stomping of feet and numerous rude gestures, we sold upper management on the idea of the Stardock Porsche Fleet...
Each, of course, added $2.50 to the unit cost of a WinCustomize subscription.
That's why the subscription is now $10 more per year. Gotta pay for the fancy cars!
Now, I know some of you are probably getting worked up about this turn of events, especially considering how we told you it was really about the free skins, and not the Porsche fleet. To calm your nerves, here's a serene picture of some geese...
That's right, here at Stardock HQ we have a fleet of Porsches AND cute little baby geese!
No kidding.
You need to seriously get a life.
One more ridiculuos post and you'll lose the priviledge of participating on this privately owned site in which I decide what content is and isn't allowed. My name is Brad Wardell btw. And while not a practicing attorney, I've been involved in more than enough lawsuits over the years to know what is and isn't a legal liability. We also have a pretty substantial legal team we've built up over the years.
And as the last lawyer who tried to tangle with us learned, I eat lawyers for lunch.
Who says I'm not a pig?
I find them a bit too crunchy.
I didn't know being called out was a big issue.
I like to say what I want to say. If that makes me a pig, so be it. I can live with that.
The Frog's a pig?
This cross-species experimentation's gotta stop...
Zoomba provided the fun....but it was while he was in the 'land of nod' that it all went 'silly'...so 'twas I who took 'the fun away'.
As is our wont, the 'issue' was moved to private communication/s....with this thread temporarily locked to stop the spam.
All this was through the course of a Wednesday afternoon, 'recovering' from a trip to the dentist [injection wearing off, etc] and poking what supposedly passes for MY new car with a stick....OK, guys...I know my horse-flesh when it comes to cars....and a Goggomobil is not a sub-compact Porsche, m'kay?....
