Ooh, please do. RPS currently earns us a mere fraction of proper grown-up money, which means we’re having to run it on spare time, goodwill, and lots of help from our friends. Clearly that’s not ideal – so every penny helps us write more, longer, faster, better. Yes, it’s a little humiliating to put out our begging cap in public, but it’s all for the good of the site.
If you’re super-generous and want to give us a piffling $2 a month as a recurring donation clicky here:
Please use an email address you actually check for Paypal! It’s how we send you stuff.
We have to emphasize that subscribing is first and foremost about supporting the site, in order to help us keep it going. At present, we’re not able to generate secret bonus content or whatnot as thanks, but as we’re aware that our undying gratitude and love may not be quite enough recompense, what we have been doing is sorting out irregular subscriber-only freebies and deals in order to make such lovely people feel a tad VIP. Lately, we’ve been able to sort out a free game, a subscriber-exclusive compo, exclusive discounts, first dibs on tickets to our Thinkosium event and freebie keys to several game closed betas. Again though – we can’t guarantee we’ll be showering you in free stuff at this stage, but hopefully there’ll be the odd one here and there.
If this whole monthly payment thing seems a little too much, for a one-off chunk o’change this here’s your man:
Love you!
(Oh – if you’re worrying about that dollar thing, Paypal (which we use for our sub payments) does the conversion automagically, and takes funds from your account in your local currency, so you shouldn’t incur any bank charges. That’s if you already have a Paypal account setup and linked to your bank account, anyway – if you want to bypass signup/login and manually enter credit card details, it might be worth checking your bank don’t charge a tithe for conversion.)
