That should be possible since you can upgrade to Premium with Cupid Credits. However, I would have to do a delicate balancing act with the his because the most active users of a site are also normally the most likely to actually be willing to pay to upgrade to a Premium version of a site. If the active users can just get it for free, and the inactive users don't pay to upgrade, then the site can't fund itself.
Keep in mind that the reason I originally added the ability to Upgrade to Premium using Cupid Credits was because our previous payment provider Bango stopped working with small businesses, so I couldn't charge folks any more yet they could still earn free Cupid Credits by referring friends, so I wanted to give them the ability to still upgrade to Premium without paying.
So I don't currently foresee removing the ability to upgrade to Premium using Cupid Credits, and I will definitely be adding more achievements to the site so that there are a lot more ways to earn Cupid Credits, but I may have to increase the Cupid Credits "price" of Premium so that it's not too easy to upgrade to make sure it requires A LOT of dedication. It will all depend on how many achievements I add and the value of the rewards and how much folks are able to earn. The other reason the Cupid Credits "price" of Premium will most likely have to go up is because once users are able to purchase Cupid Credits again (as well as upgrade to Premium) like before, the more Cupid Credits you buy in bulk, the bigger your discount, and if you are able to purchase Premium with Cupid Credits, then you would be able to purchase a single month of Premium at a deep discount by purchasing Cupid Credits in bulk, so I will need to resolve that loophole.
The only way the site can survive in the long-term is if it's paying for itself, and for several years now I've been paying hundreds out of my pocket every month to cover the shortfall because I love the site and genuinely enjoy adding features you guys request and then seeing you folks use them and I still think Dating.mobi has great potential even after all these years of ups and downs.
