I feel a bit confused by your reply because the numbers don't appear to match what you're responding to.

Regarding the free relist, my focus wasn't on the abuse. By offering a free relist per day, I don't think we're going back to the abuse that existed before listing fees were thing where bots would constantly relist to make sure their cards were the cheapest ones available, which was causing massive slowdowns while playing the game. My focus is offering a free relist per day regardless of how anyone relists. They can relist manually, using this potential service or any other way. We shouldn't be making exceptions for certain services.

Do I want this feature? Yes. Do I think it is worth $14k? Absolutely not. I don't believe this is a reasonable value, especially because, while you believe it won't have enough return by itself, it will add one unique and pretty good feature to your site. So you end up getting paid $14k to develop it, give up revenue for 2 years, have an extra revenue after that time period, have that unique feature that will attract more people to your site, who can use other features that earn you money. I don't think that is worth it nor it is a fair deal. You haven't even provided any details on why $14k is necessary.

What I said is that if you're asking the DAO for money to develop something, part of the deal should be to provide that service plus all other services for free. Remove all premium subscriptions and crazy conditions otherwise you're getting paid from the DAO and from the players. A premium subscription is a normal approach. What is not normal is getting paid by an entity that represents stakeholders and also receive money from users. I'm also against the condition of "use this feature only if you purchase more than half from us". It would be much more fair if it was "after $X purchased from us you get this feature".
