Seriously, its practical to have some sort of indication of sub, but it needs not be intrusive. Just a thin gold/silver frame under the name or something.
I cannot remember ever seeing ads on GB. (other than that quest one). And I have none now either. I have no adblocks running, so have the ads been some sort of country specific?
From whiskey twitter: So once again, without consulting my co-workers (sorry guys!), I'm going to extend the deadline to the 15th for the reasons mentioned B4.
That way people can get in with paypal too. I think the chances are very good that we will make it.
Of course it will, but don't act like they're heroes coming to your rescue. It's pretty clear they know they fucked up but don't want to admit to it. "
Why would I care? I have even paid.(but not because I was unable to wait some days to get the bombcast)
Yes it was dumb of them to go back very slightly(the full bombcast is still free) on a promise, but not as stupid as this reaction from what I suspect is a very small and loud minority of internet drama queen's.

@CreativeColossi: i am not a white knight, thanks nor am i on a high horse, i didn't pay the money to get the new features such as no ads or hd video, i couldnt care less about them, i did it to support these men. they've given countless hours of entertainment and i am more than happy to pay them for that.
Glad you're willing to pay essentially out of charity then, because there isn't anything I want in the membership. It might just relieve some (now nonexistent) guilt I might have had about GB being free before. I'd much rather give money to the wife of the recently deceased CoH dev than to dudes who would rather not cop to making a really stupid monetization decision, and instead "extend the deadline" to get to 5000 subscriptions. What a joke. "
You may call it charity, I call it supporting. GB is unique, and I would like to keep being entertained by them. So I'm voting with my wallet.
