Do you think it would be better for the sake of ESO if forum posting was only available to members that subscribe so Zo$ can see what the actual paying customers want.

    WOW, what a ENTITLED and INGORANT thing to say

    You DO realise EVERYONE is a paying customer since you have to buy the game......
    you DO realise many B2P players have previously payed the sub fee...
    you DO realise people buy stuff from teh cash shop, thus supporting the game even without subscribing....
    You DO realise that this game went B2p BECAUSE there were not enough subs to keep this game afloat and was dieing, thus the ONLY reason you are playing now is because of the people who bought it or are coming back and are now playing it

    Why does this even make sense to poll?
    Most all forums are free, and there is no required sub to play so why attach one to be apart of the community

    I do but want to add that subs could have a sub only forum and the public still get access to the public forum.

    Its stupid to cut access for the public but it does make sense to give dedicated players "their own".

    Would add value to the sub for me. I am paying but dont care anything for the current subscription features or the crownstore.

    I pay sub because I like the game and understand that quality comes from income. My sub is my way to support ESO to be on PC development, get good service and add to developing the game.

    Datacenter, service, support and game development costs money every month. Not just when I buy the game.

    Ha!... HA HA HA! Zenimax support? What is that?

    Okay, that might have been a bit rude of me. But, since I was hear since the beginning (even in Beta), I remember when ZOS mentioned that the subscription would offer premium customer service. What we got was far from even acceptable customer service. Most reports about significant bugs were boiled down to "its your computer's fault". Oh really?! Then why are thousands of computers of every spectrum being affected? Or I'd get a copied and pasted response about an issue that had nothing to do with what I wrote in the service ticket.

    Game development, datacenters... there are F2P games out there. They have cash shops, very similar to what ZOS now has.

    Trust me when I say ALL OF US wished that this game was worth the subscription. I wish the game was worth it and I'd have no problem paying for subscription, but the game is not, ZOS has a record for having terrible, and insulting service.

    Oh look at the OP, he thinks he is clever to replace the S in ZoS with a $ sign because evidently a he thinks a business doesn't need money to produce content.

    Also, not only no, but hell no. If you bought the box you paid your dues, this whole self-entitlement crap is going too far. People believe that their subs aren't getting enough respect. Crikey, you get more than you claim, just being selfish and self-entitled.

    Lol. ZoS decided game should be b2p/f2p= all players payed for game.
    The entitlement and greed from people that choosed to pay monthly for crowns seems limitless.

    Would perhaps be ok If only thing that was allowed to discuss in such a subforum was the crownstore.
    And every single one that ever purchase crowns should then get access to that aswell.

    Perhaps you were not around for the last year, but ZOS didn't give any higher priority to nor listen to those on the forum when you were required to sub from March 2014-March 2015. They still did what they wanted to do despite the backlash they received.

    In addition to this, there were just as many negative comments on the forums then as their are today.

    So from experience, being a faithful paying customer means absolutely nothing to the developers, ceo, chairman of this game. They are going to go what they are going to do.

    I kinda did. I actually said on another thread there should be a subscriber sub-section. But I had enough.
    If options weren't necessary, and everyone played the same way, no one would use addons. Fix the UI!

    And rightly so too, it's their game. If you don't like the way they're developing it you don't have to play it.

    No, but I do understand that people are trying desperately to justify continuing to pay their subs every month. I think a subscriber-only section of the forum where like-minded subscribers who think they are better than other customers over a piddly $15 a month could go and stroke each others egos would be fine.
    Happy All the Holidays To You and Yours!
