No Pay No Say

I was reading Stadium Suggestion and I was Whittall's point on non premium's don't contribute any money to this game so their opinion doesn't matter. (I am F2P member as well so this may seem biased but) I disagree with that. I know we don't contribute any money to this but we still play the game and I feel deserve a say. Other's may disagree (which is far enough I can see why) and especially on points like non-premium stadium capacity (which is way too small in my view but that is besides the point especially since I don't pay).

Any thoughts?

When it's asking for more free stuff, then no, your opinion doesn't matter imo.
Now if it's something that benefits everyone, then knock yourselves out, good ideas are welcome, the stadium idea was not one though imo.

Free users are not harmful to the game, they are just playing less competitive. They give in their time, their effort to make a live community, to make the game popular. Being in a group of real managers is much more fun than being among bots. They are also making the game alive just as paid users.

Moreover, to get free users, the game is paying for ads, which is not cheap. We should not treat free users as nothing. At some points in the game, a free user will become a paid user. Most current premium went through that point. Some sooner, some later.

In my plan for next xmas, I will pay. As in a blog, the game said the user's ambition will decide that. A casual manager don't have to, but an addicted gamer who want to be in top division will need to unlock all the best in a very long duration, years.

I don't mind this matter being discussed again but please stick to the rules people

Suggestion refused

As someone who has played with and without premium for a number of years, thought I'd give my two cents. Obviously those who are currently paying for premium are footing the bill to keep the game up and running and so their opinion of changes to premium features should be given a bigger weight; with only a couple clicks they could cancel their premium if a change happens that they don't like so they should be listened to. But in the same light, those without could just as easily decided to buy a subscription on the basis to a change of features. To say their opinions on premium aren't valid is to say they will never become a customer which, unless they've stated such, can't be assumed
