if you re-read the thread there are a number of people including myself who WANT to be charged extra for those "future services" including the spam system.
Our only request is that we not have to terminate our rights as perpetual/lifetime licenseholders.
But as Charles stated. IPS is looking at solutions. So, we'll see what happens.
Being forced out of something you've paid for to have an additional benefit directly connected to the product you've paid for is not acceptable. Acting like little kids? Thanks for the insult (ironic considering you're 14). We're not asking to get anything for free. We're PAYING customers. We pay $20 less a year than normal customers. Fine, give us the ability to pay the standard rates WITHOUT giving up licenses we've paid for and I'll shut up.
I won't stop using IPS products as I think they make great products, but if they make us do this then instead of saying "Great products and great company" when someone asks me about them I'll say "Great product but company that doesn't care about its customers".
