if you were trying to support graal would'nt one thing you would have upgraded yourown account and used it for the forums

Its just really funny. Ill do the math for you... Ok graal. It costs 39 a year right? that is $3.25 a month. If you wanna make it every school day. it would be about 21 cents a day for every day you go to school..

Now here is your lunch (its a bout $1.50 a day for the sake of argument) Look at the difference. Even if you get reduced lunch (40 cents) So every year for regular lunch you pay about $270
and for reduced you pay 72 dollars.

Now look at them numbers. Number never lie

Per day
Graal: $0.21
Reduced Lunch: $0.40
Regular Lunch: $1.50

========
Per year
Graal: $39
Reduced lunch: $72
Regular Lunch: $270


And that is why it is SO SO SO rediculous to complain about the price.
*kerblink* Yeah, so just, ah, don't eat lunch for half a year...and you can afford Graal?

I think I liked it better in terms of movies. One adult ticket: 7 dollars. At that rate, you could watch 5 or 6 movies a year, or play Graal2002 as much as you like for that entire year.
Even that's not such a good comparison, so look at video games. Find a game that costs less than $39 dollars, and tell me it's gonna give you more than a solid year of enjoyment, or that new things will develop on it even occasionally. Devil May Cry's supposed to be a great game, but it's not $39, and in a year I'd be bored with it. FFVI is still one of the best games I've ever played, and that was for the SNES, and that was like $45 when I got it. A single PS2 game goes for like 60 bucks nowadays...and yeah, okay, so the quality's much better. But you can get lifetime access to Classic for $15 - that's 1/4 the price. You could get 4 people upgrades for the price of Gran Turismo 9 or whatever they're on now.

so how is it triggered? if you try to log on will a prompt come up and ask or something?
It will depend on how it is setup , I'm sure it will be some sort of voice prompt or when dialed a certain phone # it will automaticly bill the number you are calling from much like ....errr hate to put it this way , but its the most commonly way it's used ....those imfamous 900 numbers which charge you discretely as some sort of entertainment company by the minute.... use your imagination on that.... anyway it will prolly prompt you on which upgrade you want so it will charge the correct amount... like if you want the $ 15. press 2 and so on ... this of course is just spectulation on my part on how it will be done...

Tyhm, don't be neive... I was trying to compare the price of graal with something most of use have to pay for every day. You don't go to the moveis every day. Some of us go to the movies once or twice a year.

mmmmkay: I thought that too, but now that I think of it, he meant if you go twice a year you have no life, you should go much more.

Some people can't afford to spend cash to go to the movies all the time. I guess they have no lives.
