In an effort to be fair I did suggest that current subforum owners could retain their subbies for as long as they had VIP, and this was adopted so nobody lost it till they ran out of VIP.
I am wondering if that decision has actually decreased the VIP revenue. I am not saying it has because I don't know. It was right to get rid of the inactive ones but its a shame that the truly active ones could not have had it included in their VIP as it was seen as a step back by the members I think.
Maybe members are happy to pay for them - only you would know that
