Vint.ee credit revaluation on June 1

The more VIP status costs, the fewer VIPs there are and the less vint.ee benefits.
Who are these rich people who want to make buying VIP status 1.8EUR more expensive? I don't support this change at all.
Maybe VIP status should be lowered to 30 credits in the new mode, because 50 is too expensive.
There is clearly too much emotion in this topic. 1) For 3.2 EUR, you can at best get one lunch... or one pack of cigarettes. That can't be too much to pay for a month's entertainment. For 5 EUR, you can probably get one movie ticket. 2) The problem is not the price, but that a person would buy credit at all. If they are already buying credit, it doesn't matter whether it costs 2, 3 or 5 EUR. 3) Listen to Kraska - buy VIP status for a longer period of time right now and you won't feel the price increase. 4) Users don't understand how much it costs to participate in a paid Russian checkers tournament. 25 credits - how much time does it take you to convert that into EUR? If the ratio were 1:10, it would be immediately clear: 2.5 EUR. 5) Vint.ee will not make a profit. At least for the next couple of years. Losses will be reduced to keep the portal running. 6) Is a person rich today if they have 1.8 EUR in their pocket?
1.8€ is about 25 kroons. For that you can get a whole steak in a cheap place - I don't mean the restaurants in Tallinn and Tartu. If you make it at home you can have a pretty rich lunch. It's actually a pretty noticeable amount, by how much this thing should be more expensive. I work and earn money, etc., but if the situation were a little worse, then you would definitely feel the difference, because taxes and loans and things also want to be paid and the family needs to be fed, etc. But in defense of this change, you can say that it's voluntary, and it's true that with the aim of supporting such a guy, you could make yourself a VIP some extra bonuses.
In my opinion, the problem with Vindi credit is not its price, but the advantages or rewards you get for the money are not attractive. Secondly. Prices must be simple and clear. 1.5977912134265591246660616363938 is not easy to remember, nor is it easy to do calculations with such a price, although it is very accurate. 1.6 is also not a good price, especially if it has to be multiplied by two, three or four. If the unit in the case of credit is not divisible, then its price must also be an integer. Therefore, in my opinion, the unit of credit could be a whole euro (1€), money paid in kroons should be converted into whole euros (in a more beneficial direction for the payer), and the prices of all paid services should be brought to an accuracy of 1€, and if necessary, they should be increased.
but make 1 credit = €0.01 convert existing credits according to the exchange rate, you can also adjust the price lists if necessary. that way no one loses anything.
1) You can get a lunch for just 3.2 EUR, so for 5 EUR you can already afford something more. 2) There is still a difference whether it costs 1.8 EUR more or less. It should be taken into account that many users do not go to work and do not have their own money, but have to ask their parents for it. And there are certainly some unemployed or low-income people here. 3) In order to listen to Karska, you also need to have EUR to buy more credit. 4) 25 credits can also be calculated into EUR on a computer, or on a calculator. You don't have to calculate in your head. 5) If you raise the price of the service, you will hardly make a profit. Many simply do not use an expensive service. 6) If you have 1.8 EUR in your pocket, you can still get bread. There may be something else. But I am convinced that many do not have that either.
So far, everyone has talked about what the pros and cons of this matter are. They have also tried to convey their views on how much 1€ is worth to someone. And the only reason for the change seems to be that it will be easier to calculate? However, no justification has been given for why a price increase of 56.25% (1.8/3.2) is necessary. Even the largest price increases in all areas are 20%, in extreme cases 30% - and this is always clearly justified either by some kind of excise duty or direct cost increases. It can also be justified by adding more options, services, etc. I believe that everyone who asks today is waiting for justifications.
Vint could apply for state support. For example, from the Cultural Endowment. Thanks to Vint, some young people are at home in the evenings and don't cause trouble in the city. Thanks to Vint, there will definitely be a rise in young mind-players, etc.
