Why doesn't RHP give non subscribers a limited time for free, say 3 months then if they want to play good, and if they don't ante up deny them access?

..so after 3 months one has to pay for a sub?

You should take this to site ideas. Personally though, I don't think it's such a good idea. There is more contrubution given my members then their fee.

I doubt, under those circumstances, that many people would actually subscribe at the end of the trial period. The majority of people would probably just create a new account instead or find another site to play on.

Besides, I imagine that the revenue gained from the current non-subscriber advertising heavily outweighs the potential revenue the site could gain from limiting their access and trying to convert them into subscribers.

To further note. They are giving an opportunity to see if you enjoy the way the site plays by giving, permanent but limited use of the site for evaluation and enjoyment.

RHP should cut me a cheque for gracing this hole with my presence.

I like to think of you as the RHP cat - proud, slightly arrogant and only turning up when you want food or attention.

I say again. I'm new to the site, non-sub for a while and now paid up - RHP rocks! I'da subbed sooner but I had to wait for the mrs to leave the credit card unguarded. What's not to like? Chess and arguments all in one! *purr*

spot on. wikipedia concurs.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cat_intelligence

The brain size of the average cat is 5 centimeters in length and 30 grams. Since the average cat is 60 cm long and 3.3 kg,[1] the brain makes up 1/12 of its length and 1/110 of its mass. Thus, the average cat's brain accounts for 0.9 percent of its total body mass, compared to 2 percent of total body mass in the average human.
