I have to say i totally agree with what everyone is saying about $15 being too much, and i really hope we reach the 250k mark, and i still believe it is possible.
But what if it hits say... 200k? or even 230k, but not quite the 250k?
In this instance i urge jagex to make the right decision, not just for the community but for the business.
The very fact that this vote was put up, and the possibility of 07 servers was introduced, shows jagex is taking an interest in the community and trying to make decisions to help their business prosper.
So what i have to say is, if it does fall just short of 250k is do not have a $15 membership fee because believe me you will be instantly losing a lot of players' money. Instead, make the fee something like... $6 or *7 to account for the missing numbers.
I sincerely believe that everyone who would be prepared to pay $5 would have no second thoughts about paying an extra $2, and that way you keep all the players paying the extra membership, you do not lose out on any money (if calculted right it should work out to earning the same amount of money as 250,000 players at $5) and it keeps the community happen.
So just remember, it does not have to be $5 or $15, one or the other, you can find a middle ground that makes complete sense and is the best for the game and for your business.
