I'd pay AU$50 easy

Its a entire year so you would have to cover your cost I would expect?

I second that, actually I would pay double.

I think you could consider having a group called "gold member subscribers" few extra perks perhaps, for ?50 per year.. id be happy to pay it.

howz about a no warning one, loll

How much would you pay for that:yes:s:

Perhaps Neowin management need to work out a cost structure of the extras and stuff they were looking at when shift first went live, and get an indication of how much people would pay.

Or was that already done?

^ Welcome aboard friend.

the two features i think ill taking advantage of the most are the 1mb upload limit now, so i can post more pics without posting 1 pic over and over, and i dont have to compress the images. and the other one is the shorter flood control, i always accidentally hit active posts...right before i want to search something or check threads i posted in, then i have to wait a while to do it...

^ another one you will like is the the ability to edit thread titles after posting :D Welcome (Y).

Yes please admins look into it.

Yes, but it's not easy to implement and would people be prepared to pay more than Enhanced service?

Possibly. To be honest though, ads don't bother me. It's just the ads in text that bother me. Can't sweep the mouse around without having windows block the news I'm reading. :pinch:

    • Microsoft brings Planner Agent to all Microsoft 365 Copilot users by Ivan Jenic Image: Microsoft Microsoft has announced that Planner Agent in Microsoft 365 Copilot is now generally available to all users with a Microsoft 365 Copilot license. Planner Agent is the latest addition in the string of AI features that Microsoft is implementing across virtually all of its products. The agent lets you manage tasks through natural language prompts directly inside Microsoft 365 Copilot. You can create and update tasks, check priorities, and get insights about current entries without leaving the chat interface. The general availability release comes with a handful of new additions on top of what was available during the initial rollout. A new plan picker lets you search and filter your plans by name, then update task names, statuses, due dates, or priorities through the agent. There's also a goals bucket now, which lets you group tasks under specific goals. This builds on the Goals view, a feature that was introduced as part of the broader Planner refresh that rolled out earlier. Image: Microsoft | Planner Agent in Microsoft 365 Copilot All AI-generated plans and tasks are created in draft mode by default, so you can review and approve changes before anything goes through. This is actually a thoughtful safety feature, because trusting AI to handle all your tasks without a human in the loop is usually a recipe for disaster. Having tasks initially saved as drafts is the best possible middle ground. Microsoft also says that not all tasks are executed equally. Simple tasks get processed quickly, while more complex ones, like building a plan from a Word, Excel, or PowerPoint file, are handed to a more capable model. Microsoft says this approach delivers the best performance, but it could also help with usage management, as you won't have to waste tokens on performing simple tasks. Planner Agent is available now across Teams, Loop, SharePoint, and other Microsoft 365 apps for anyone on a Microsoft 365 Copilot subscription.
    • To be clear I'm anti trump, the bigger point is why review this game at all?
    • Trillion dollar Microsoft has to reduce spending by hurting more people. Good job Microsoft. Good Job Asha.
    • That's a shame. The big Xbox reset when Phil and Sarah left and then Asha came on and brought a new team of executives, and all the layoffs last year and saying that the ABK merger wouldn't result in redundancies I am surprised they are calling for yet another reset and yet more layoffs.
