Okay I'll reduce the cost to $5.80. We have noticed that it takes us more
money to run a US player's account than any other - admin costs, time,
explanation of the house rules... A decent middle ground I think.
Note UK players get charged 5% on credit cards so North American's get an
advantage there. Swings and roundabouts.

Ok, I have kept quiet on this issue, but after this last comment I
just couldn't keep my mouth shut any longer...
1) Being a US player all of my correspondence in performed via e-mail
and my turns are delivered the same way.
2) I am an experienced ME player and do not ask the Harly staff for
help. If I need help I come to this message board.
3) I had moved to Harly from DGE prior to the "forced move" in order
to play with my "new" teammates. No new demands were created for the
Harly staff as a result.
4) The UK player 5% CC charge versus the US players CC doesn't seem
valid. Harly is getting the same cash from me due to me paying
through the on-line payment feature. Therefore this 5% comparison is
bogus. If there is a fee that is placed upon Harly for each of my
payments, charge me that fee when I do so.
The net response is that I would prefer to continue paying for my
account exactly as I do now. A higher cost for US players as opposed
to a UK player just doesn't seem to add up. Especially if this UK
player is a postal player. Then I would strongly assume that the
reverse is true.
