[Neil de Guzman]

Subscription creates demand. I mean, literally... Demanding to fix unwanted rating calculations, What cars to race on what time slot.... etc... ADS are everywhere around here, which is not a bad thing. If that keeps the service free, then I don't wanna shoot it down. I was in that thread too, the donations will do if you are very happy. Give what you think SRS deserves. But like I suggested there too, no strings attached. No demands, no thank you. No removal of ads, etc. Just try to improve on some areas like commented broadcast, better rating system to lessen "whining" threads, and some sort of safety rating that will decide if a driver is good enough to race certain cars, and were good...

Currently, some races have ratings requirements like 200 or 500... What's nice to have is make it check all 3 stats, like minimum 3.0 or 2.0 incident average, minimum of 20 races raced in SRS servers and any given rating like again, 200 to 500 maybe even 800... this formula would take away the comments that noobs can race with the regulars because it was easy to do so.

To the topic... free sounds better any day of the week. But I will not disagree if someday subscriptions will be required. As long as it's reasonable of course.
