Sponsor & Super Sponsor Benefits

I'm still sceptical about the whole "people with enough stamina or money do get better seats" thing and I just know that I'll end up behind a 2m tall brick and won't see a thing - again ;)

Yeah, and the guy who pays extra will even get a larger PIZZA than you. And the other guy who paid more will also get a bigger CAR. And the furry sitting next to you might have paid THREE times as much as you for his hotel room, and got a suite.

Sure. All true. But it does strengthen the point how "commercial" "everything" has become. And though we all know that we do have a kind of money-based class society, that's not the thing people want to see when they are just wanting to have a great party. Which is what EF has always been known for - back in the time when everyone including Chairman of Anthrocon claimed EF to be the greatest party of them all.
So, frankly, your first point noting that Sponsors just "makes all of this possible, including the lower prices for non-sponsors" was way better, imho, than bashing at our guests that they should fucking cope with capitalism :-/
I decided to upgrade to Sponsor a few hours ago. For this single reason of supporting EF. I'm glad I did this before reading your post.

I'm just annoyed that I always have to sit behind the tallest guys and now there will be even more tall people in front of me because they can afford it. I can't afford it because I don't have a job. Why don't I have a job? Because my education comes first. Studying and having a job at the same time doesn't work, not with the fucked up system and chaos around here so please don't diss me for not having much money. Sorry but that topic is a little bit touchy for me.

Don't worry. Our agents have worked hard to recruit the smallest super-sponsors on the planet. They're all japanese :)
But, seriously. It doesn't matter if you're a supersponsor or not ... there may or may be tall people sitting in front of you. That's why the stage is raised by 1 meter (pawpet stage 2,80m) above the floor, and why we have two 4,50 meter projection screens left and right at 5 meter above the ground. Stop worrying - everything will be fine. I promise.
