FA+ is loaded / unsubbing
2 years ago
I'm honestly pissed with how they've handled this.
When I first subscribed the only thing I really really wanted (avatar upload size limit came later!) was to have more thumbnails/submissions per page when browsing them and I thought FA+ would only be small things as such.
This far in (a year? two at this point?) and they decided to not only now LIMIT the FREE previous feature of being able to upload whatever resolution you wanted but now you need to PAY for the "privilege" of being able to upload UP TO 4K ?
What the fuck was the thought here besides the obvious easy cash grab? Why is it that if an artist chooses to upload a HD submission for people to enjoy in all its glory that is now not only NOT possible, but it's now limited to people that are only willing to give a portion of their hard earned money to "thou that shall not be named" ?
Imagine the audacity to remove a fucking feature so incredibly important to some for the sole reason of squeezing even MORE money out of people?
You can argue that it's "not needed to enjoy artists work" but the previous example shows that BOTH parties get shafted no matter which way you look at this.
How the fuck is this okay?
There is no way I am ever giving them another dime unless they remove this fucking idiotic file size/dimension restriction.
Devs/Web designers updating the website require money, I get it, but its been THIS LONG and you've yet to give us something truly significant or at the top of the list of requests.
This website is legitimately a joke and I'm wishing more and more there was a replacement that wasn't so god damn money hungry.
e6 I bet makes half the money these ass holes do and yet they have no file size limit. Go figure

It's not surprising if it doesn't take off or have similar traffic (like weasyl and similar) due to the sheer length this website has existed in comparison.
