$5, same as in town: perks for signing up November 18, 2004 10:45 AM Subscribe
Are these new logins, having paid, getting to see the new ad-free MeFi?
Does the $5 fee come with an uptime guarantee?
Lastly, will Mathowie pay me $5 to rescind my login? Really lastly, what is the returns policy for those who have paid their $5?

Are you really concerned about your $5?
Although there are a few members I'd pay $5 to leave MetaFilter I don't really see anyone getting a refund to unjoin.
And I'm not sure (because I don't read fine print usually) but I don't think the $5 fee ever mentions an ad-free MetaFilter. Maybe I'm wrong.

Damn, you'd think instead of a $5 signup fee, people were being asked to submit their first born child.
For $5 you expect zero downtime? And you expect a refund if you are unsatisfied with the product?
Its five dollars. Five measly bucks. That's almost lunch. And you pay it one time. Besides, the sign up page says no refunds will be given.

Definitely not ad-free. I'm one of the new users that signed up and I still have text ads. I assume ad-free will come with the rollout of Premium memberships and will probably cost more than $5.
And I thought $5 was pretty darn fair.

I, for one, don't mind having a bit of my page soiled for google adwords. I never click on em, but at least they generate a bit of lucre for old #1. If my spare cpu cycles spent rendering html can give anyone anything other than a bandwidth fee, I'd like to help out.
That said, I'm new, paid my 5 bucks, and still see the ads. And it doesn't bother me a bit. In fact, I would probably prefer them on if i had the option. But that is just me.

They'll get to avoid the graphical ads, yes.
Does the $5 fee come with an uptime guarantee?
Ha! As if! My hosting bill is hundreds of bucks a month, this was merely a ploy to help defray that (and yeah, so far this morning I've earned several months of hosting, so that's good).
I'm actually getting close to a day where I could either quit my job and work on this pile of crappy code I wrote, or I could actually hire someone to do it. I know some really savvy CF programmers that could rennovate and certainly get the uptime improved.
Lastly, will Mathowie pay me $5 to rescind my login?
Not in general, but if you really wanted to, maybe I would.
Really lastly, what is the returns policy for those who have paid their $5?
SOL is the official policy from headquarters. I had no say in it. Skippy was all over that decision.

I'll admit the $5 fee was unexpected, but it's hardly breaking the bank. I assume that the money will in one way or another contribute to uptime, and that's well worth it to me.
Just out of curiousity, is there a window of opportunity for new signups, or will they remain open for the forseeable future? I didn't see any info on that floating around.

that's a very interesting point, actually. so many people willing to shell out five bucks in a matter of hours makes me think that demand was so high that Matt could have priced new accounts higher, and still make a profit. not as many users, but more money.
for the sake of the argument BlzOfGlry, 19.99 dollars would have been too much for you?

Oh c'mon, Metafilter has some of the least intrusive adverts I've ever seen (the majority of advertising makes me grind my teeth, but Google textads strike me as just about the best way to dangle products in front of us, pay the bills and still not ruin the experience). I'd have been amazed if paying $5 made the ads go away. It's just, like... really not a lot of money for a lot of Metafilter.
Although maybe the option for an ad-free Mefi with a bigger donation would be nice... Matt! Obey meeee! I paid for... i dunno. A sandwich? A magazine? Porn?

I definetely would have shelled out 19.99 to sign up. I'd say that that would be near my upper limit for the service ($20 is a BIG anchor for me). I think Matt could have priced it up higher no problem.

These are all valid questions. No need to circle the wagons, guys. No need to get defensive.
Money is now involved, and therefore a certain accountability. I think one of the expectations of being a paying subscriber to a website is that the guy you've paid will do everything possible to let you see that web site whenever you want. Zero downtime is impossible, but certainly the turnaround when something breaks down could be improved (I'm thinking of last year's debacle).
I've got a friend who runs a large online community, and he's got a lot of nasty things to say about the jrun errors, lag, and system hiccups we've come to expect. I think Matt does a pretty good job, but this ain't no hobby site, nor has it been for a long while, and so consideration must be given to this sort of shit beyond the community consensus in this thread of "Don't like it? Fuck off."

being a paying subscriber
I know, it's not a big deal in anyone's perception of things, but I must stress it's not a subscription. It's a one time shot, a cover charge, when you walk in, and never again.
When I start doing pro accounts for a couple bucks a month in exchange for more features, those folks I will treat as customers and make sure things are rock solid before then.

i was GRATEFUL to pay 5 bux just to get back in. i joined MeFi in 1999, had a computer problem, and when i finally got back online many months later, my info was gone and i couldn't log in. i never got it resolved, emailing Mathowie didn't help (i understood and didn't feel resentful).
reading and wishing since then, and never getting another chance to sign up was frustrating.
this plan helped me... even though i had to go find someone who would use a credit card online to make the five dollar donation for me.
thank you.

I can understand when the /. kids whine and bitch about their premium membership, but you know what, those Free-as-in-everything guys will bitch at anything that involves the transfer of green paper away from them. Like others have said, I would have gone up to $10 here, $15 would have requird a free lunch, and $20 a massage afterwords. $5 was perfectly chewable.

I had something similar happen to me, reflecked... I had my l33t 5xxx account and everything, and then I not only managed to lose my password (the one I had written down didn't work,) but the email address I had signed up with didn't work, as the company had gone under rather unceremoniously, and I, with my fetchmail script aggregating several mailboxes, didn't notice :(
It was funny, because around the whole 'login' incident someone posted in AskMe about losing your password, and I remember responding as login to his question :) I also paid out $5 in the aftermath to, you know, say sorry...
I'm glad I finally have an account again... I obviously like MeFi enough to have contributed TWICE the sign up price to it (oh my) but given that I never once posted with my first account, I'm not sure how much it really means to me.
I've managed to survive this long without one. I don't think a money-back guarantee will be necessary.

I really don't see the problem - I (and how many others?) were more than willing to fork over five (5) dollar bills in exchange for participation here. I mean, really... it's not a monthly fee.
Maybe it has to do with expectations... if I had been asked to pay $5 to do what I had already been doing (just reading the site), I probably wouldn't have done it. But to pay to get more, that was no question. Does that make sense?

No, you can't use unicode...it's not utf-8 or whatever all the way through. You can ask Matt's new CF code guru for that pony, though.
Meanwhile, use html entities. Apparently the numbered ones are more widely supported, though that means the most common ones methinks. Here's the first link I use for reference. Here's the second. 'Course I remember the ones I normally use. Here's the important part: when you preview, it replaces the entities with extended character. Then, when you post, it tries to post the extended character which almost never will work. So, what you need to do is to either copy the text from the text box before you preview, or just back your browser and copy and then forward and paste. Or whatever. Also, If you want to do anything fancy and you have some other way of entering unicode characters, you might try using something like "tidy", some version will replace extended characters with the html entities. On XP, which I use, I found a command-line version of tidy that I then added a context menu for htm and html files that "tidy this", which is handy.

Then, when you post, it tries to post the extended character which almost never will work.

They'll get to avoid the graphical ads, yes.
Until I read this, I hadn't even realized that the graphical ads had disappeared after signing up. I think over the years I have just tuned my brain to ignore the distractions coming in from the right.
Now that one ad with woman with the low cleavage that's been showing up recently. That one caught my eye.......
