While I can't afford it (paying the bills is more important, y'know?) I have no problem with it. There are expenses for keeping the site running, after all.

I don't think I'd ever get premium (Kinda infrequently on this site, travelling, etc) so buying premium with it's advantages wouldn't be the best for me, and it looks quite expensive. However, it's good that Riako and the others get some sort of payment from the fans, they deserve it! c: I don't have any problems with other users gettin' it, it can help out on the site loads! ^^

I would get premium though I think maybe Riako could lower the price of a year to 50 dollars U.S. For a year Instead of 80 dollars but it's a bit to expensive for my taste so I'll continue to save my nuggets up for a years worth.

I guess premium's not made for me. For one thing, my father doesn't spend anything on my games.. And for other, it's too expensive to save up. I guess I'll open up a thread, sometime.

Premium user expressing opinions
Premium is really expensive, and for people like me that doesn't even use real money on the site, it is really hard to save up for premium. I had to sell basically so many valuables for nuggets and bought myself three weeks, and it cost me a lot of virtual money, I wish riako can just lower the number of nuggets required.

Its kinda unfair all those Premium features for the Lab, it pratically makes all the Dittos and Legendary Birds easier only for premium members, imo.

But otherwise, It kinda looks cool but I'm not affording one. I don't feel like using real money + I only have 50 Nuggets pffft.

@~Kety~ Actually, there are some premium members which are unpopular as heck.

Yay because it supports the site. I love anything that can help keep this amazing site online. The site is also adfree because of premium/nugget buyers making the site a better experience for non-premium players as well(because let's face it. Most ads on a page aren't the best)

As a premium user:

I'm more than happy to use my money to help support PH. I enjoy the game, and I would like to continue to support its functions. The site probably requires a fair bit of maintenance, money-wise, for the servers etc -I can't imagine that this much space and hosting is cheap.

I don't think the perks benefit a premium user that drastically much. The lab scan is faster, sure, but I've been lab hunting for a while and haven't gotten a dang thing. Bad luck is bad luck, you know? I think the shiny chance improvement is the biggest thing, and that's really just for people who are impatient. Don't get me wrong - I think it's completely worth it to get premium. I just don't think it throws things that badly out of wack for those who are not premium.

thank you, kaitotemari, for this signature!

As a premium user since forever:

I don't think premium is worth it. It's way too expensive, especially for somebody like me who can't buy nuggets with real money and has to buy nuggets from other users, and the benefits it gives are not that good, you would rather lab hunt with the flutes that are cheaper than getting a month of premium.

Then, why have I bought premium since the second month I registered in here? It's simple, because I'm shiny mega hunting. I need to buy premium every month to continue my damn shiny mega hunt, and I can tell it's not worth it.

But hey, it's not that simple, if you shiny hunt a lot, premium with flutes is definitely the way to go, the flutes really made premium much more worth it if you want to shiny hunt with the Pokéradar. Otherwise, if you want to labhunt, using only the flutes is usually better.

Like others said, premium is pretty expensive, but it's needed to help support the site, no? Therefore, while I may not get it anytime soon, I have nothing against it.
