lol this thing just sounds more and more shady every time.

They're probably tired of getting their clock cleaned for $100 by everyone who paid $15 to sign up.

I notice also that it's US players only now.

This part seem pretty contradictory to anyone else? I'm pretty sure its a one-time fee, hence the 'no recurring fees' part. Just nitpicking here.

Anyone know if the $15 PPA/$100 party bonus is done with (because of this new thing)?

Good catch. If it's $20 per year then that should mean there ARE recurring fees because you would have to pay $20 EVERY year...

That's what I'm assuming, this message replaced the message that used to say get a 20% bonus up to $100 for joining the PPA...

No, it means $20 gets you a 1 year membership and they won't AUTOMATICALLY charge you again next year!

[/ QUOTE ]I just did it today and the $100 bonus is still good, although if you are looking to do it I would deposit sooner rather than later, in case they actually do disable it.
