Premium isn't going to prevent anyone from seeing IGE's adds. Furthermore, my premium isn't going to ALLA, it's going to some gaming conglomerate debil. When is this all going down? I might just stop paying for premium once it does. The tards aren't that special.

Seems that a lot of people are cheesed at this and planning on cancelling premium.

Auto-renew is off, unfortunatly that doesn't happen until march 26th of next year.


If cancelling isn't too much of a pain, i'm gonna. I came here because this is the ONE large site that didn't endorse or help RMT, and I paid to help with that, espcially since I didn't click the ads. Now, there's nothing seperating Allakhazam from Killvoid, except an annoying lack of img tags.

So Jeff gets a deal to do what he's already doing, but gets shed-loads (I assume, and hope for his and his staffs' sake) of green-backs.?

Good call. P'raps now you have a more consistent income stream to maintain servers and the peeps who make teh forums work. Sounds like common sense to me.

Jus' sayin'

G'luck Allah.

I think its kind of ****** thing to do.

After all that bashing he did of thotbot, after all the long testimonials agaisnt RMT he turns the site into the exact same thing.

If he had no stance on it I could let it slide but its like Noam Chomsky taking a well paying job in the Bush administration. Kind of ruins the credibility.

I don't pretend for a second that Allakhazam LLC gives my opinions any more weight than those of its other however-many subscribers but, as a personal note, having read Jeff's comments on plat sellers for the last six years and seeing his site survive the big Yantis/IGE buyout a year or two ago, this was very disappointing.

I've no idea if I'll wind up staying, going, pretending to go and then returning or what. And whatever I do won't matter for sh[Aqua][/Aqua]it in the big picture because Alla is running a gaming site, not a social club. But right now I just feel let down by someone whose previous stance in the face of a whole lot of money I previously had a deep respect for.

So no ads for IGE on this website. While I'm still sad to see them even some what linked as long as I'm not going to be bombarded with ads I'll stick around.

I'm with Bodhi and Joph. I want no truck with anything that is affiliated with gold-selling conglomerates, so I suspect my posting days here are quite numbered.

I dont want my money going to companies that could potentially fund goldselling companies. While Alla has expressed his claim over and over that nothing will change here, thats not technically true. I love this community and I probably wont stop posting, but whats my piddly $3 a month doing for him that he hasnt already just gotten in bundles? I'll continue posting here for the guys and gals that are the Asylum, but until I can be 100% sure my money is not being used even in a roundabout way to gold selling companies, I think I will not be renewing my premium

I can't say that I fault you, Alla, but I can't say that I like what you've done either. As such, until can be sure that my premium money isn't going towards gold farmers in China, I will also withhold renewal of premium membership.

And until my premium runs out, I'm on Strizike!

Meh, I remain purely neutral. I completely understand that Alla wanted to make his site as best as possible and did what he needed to in order to make that happen. and obviously the whole RMT thing being affiliated with us now leaves a bad taste in everyone’s mouth. many feel alienated but oh well, shit happens. I'll still stay as long as there are people worth talking to, my continued premium will depend solely on how this pans out then coming future.


Edit: haha! I don't even need to change my avatard as it fits in with all the doomsayers!
