It's not that they don't matter, though they probably matter less. I just think there's probably some value in knowing what your paying customers are saying and what your potential customers are saying.

I've heard perfectly good sense coming from cheapskates, and man, have I heard some absolute garbage coming out of people with tags of all kinds.
I'm all for segregating people who give good feedback from people who give nonsense rubbish feedback, but what in the world makes you think the fact that someone paid money should be a barometer of sense?

Because this community needs more divisions within itself... am I right?

No because those people would be very entitled and I can't imagine the trolling be any better there than here.

It would be my way to make sure most everyone give his due to pgi. At least it wont be so damn annoying to read their crap. Idealy people who "sub" to the game/forum would get freebies in game in the form of mc. This would replace a sub that cant be applied in a normal way now, would probably add lots of revenue to pgi.
I would make it any amount of mc bought once a month gives you a "sub". Great way to support product you want to exist. Free to play dont mean the game exist for free.
Founders should have a place only them can access and it shouldnt cost a thing.

No... Maybe a paying or paid only section, but nothing with the discussion depth here.

Y'know I never did believe that there was really a "worst idea ever" as some people like to say for the game...but now I think this one might be it.

how's about a paid section where devs (any dev) has to reply at least once a day...

No. Want more communication / discussion, not less across the board with everyone.
right they are communicating with NGNG / SJR / HOL... happy with that?

Get back in your box troll face. We don't need your kind of threads around here.

Splitting it would insinuate to the non-paying customers that their input doesn't matter; That's not a good plan for turning them into paying customers.

I'm not sure. If anything I want them replying to the free forums more to show people they are getting more engaged.

No, the business model needs both types of players. Additionally, there seems to be no relationship between good/bad posts and paying/not paying.

seriously... is there any "free-to-play" player left in this game... i would have thought they would have cycled through everybody they could before going to steam...

Judging by how the queue changes whenever a new clan mech is released for cbills, I would say "yes."

I see no reason to do that. Perhaps, as someone else posted, a founder lounge for a more intimate environment with the devs.
