Due to feedback we have received, the IJ owners have decided to bring back the Self-Committed [paid] account type. With this we are going to introduce a new pricing model.
$10 - 6 months Self-Commited [paid]
$20 - 1 year Self-Commited [paid]
$40 - Permanently Insane
We are still offering Permanent extra userpics and Rename tokens for the same low prices that they have always been.
This change will be made Friday, July 27th. So you have until then to take advantage of the current $30 Permanently Insane price.

I held a poll on my personal journal in a public post. I know not everyone reads it, but there is a fair amount of people who do.
I know I can't please anyone, but I only raised the perm price so the year account would be worth buying. I can't offer the year accounts for any less that $20 unfortunatly as the money they generate just isn't enough to justify it.
I am not running this site to get rich, I run it because I love to run it. Right now we are running about even on costs considering the amount of time i have to put into this site. It's really not that easy to run.
Unfortunately I am not the most tactful person in the world, I'm just a computer geek who happened to start this site at just the right time.
Like I said, I'm okay with that aspect of the price raise; it's just the short term of the “Last Chance” sale combined with the timing and the relative non-visibility of the mentioned feedback and my natural cynicism made things look kind of bad.
Thanks for your frank response. I appreciate your taking the time to explain.
