    free MMOs are mainly geared to convince you to pay for the "premium" service in order to actually enjoy your game.

    I don't know what robbed Scott of his sense of humor. Maybe it's the conventions or something. He can hardly write a goddamn comic.

    On the subject of Penny arcade, the unsubscriber plan made me laugh my ass off. 'Free' mmos are so bullshit
    "unsubscriber plan" was really the only joke I laughed at in this comic.

    May actually be the only joke in this comic!

    Well done!

    So appearently yesterday's comic was mentioned on one of our radio stations last night.

    As you can expect it was described by a dude who had no idea what "Pennies Arcade" or even "Comics on the web" were about.

    So I actually went and read that vgcats thing.

    I take back what I said earlier, that comic is representative of everything terrible about video games and "gamers"

    I had to sit through the conspiracy theory with Courtney Love. Some music majors take this shit seriously.

    As a music major, what the hell sort of college have you attended that the music majors theorize on Kurt Cobain's death. Again, I love Nirvana and all things Cobain, but I wouldn't consider that even close to intersecting with my training as a musician.

    Near the bay area, California. I don't get it either.

    Hey everyone I wanted to point that you can in fact use a just a creditcard to purchase the Premium subscription.

    Hit http://spellborn.acclaim.com/keypurchase.html and look for the red box around the "Pay with Credit Card" radio button.

    Gabe or Tyco.. drop me an email at community@acclaim.com and we will hook you up so you can really see what the skilldeck can do.

    A Properly tuned skilldeck on a low level character can easily decimate a poorly designed deck on a higher level character.

    And much thanks for the mention.

    I think Gabe does read the comic thread, but you'd probably be better off emailing them as well.

    They don't tend to read the forums, I'd shoot Khoo or Gabe or Tycho an email if you wanna chat it up all businesslike.
