Title
Idea: Code-generated basic accounts

Short, concise description of the idea
All paid users accumulate codes every six months that can be used to generate basic accounts (works like invite codes). Codes can be used for one's self or given away.

Full description of the idea
See above. Not much else.

I'm sure something could possibly go wrong, but I dunno what.

I support this suggestion.

I'd like this.

Things that could go wrong:
People mis-estimating their paid time and causing a fuss for support volunteers/staff
Implementation is likely to be a headache
Unlikely to fly with business-manager types

I like that idea. Or better yet, more like the original. The codes give you a temp paid account (three months or a month or something, just enough to get used to the features and enjoy them) then they can revert back to a "Basic" ads free account or they can pay for a paid account of their own.

I'm not seeing the point or benefit to this... o.0

[azurelunatic]

You're not the sort of dude who creates non-paid non-community project journals on a regular basis, and is signed into them often enough to not want to wrangle with ads?

[adudeabides]

I create journals more than my friends seem to consider healthy. I get a lot of project ideas. Though I don't have all the time I'd like for those. (Until I win the lottery and have the time, heh.) Not one of them is paid.

And I use Adblock.

No spambots? No harassment through journals registered two minutes ago just to leave an insulting comment?

I support this idea.

[lacey]

I'd love this.
