Comment Revenue Boost (Score 3, Insightful) 738

When a company wants to increase its revenue they will initiate a ban. The pay method of the individual is never banned. The company will no longer have to provided the service that the end user payed up front for. It is then predictable that a high percentage of users that were banned will immediately repurchase it.

600,000 Gold accounts are worth how much?

Arbitray:

600,000 x $27.50 USD (3 months) = $16,500,000.00

AVG user is on day 10 of 90 day prepaid Gold Service

Ban-Hammer is dropped

M$ just made 14,850,000 pure profit by not having to honor remaining service

Follow week after the Ban-Hammer 50% of users repurchase Gold accounts $8,250,000.00 of new cash surge

If M$ or any company for that matter wanted to curtail cheaters and modders, they would ban your Credit Card (pay method).
