Upgrade button in the 'account' section

[dhricneowbdjd]

This is just a small suggestion, but it benefits users that have already upgraded and can no longer find the button to upgrade once again. I've spoken to several users that have found it extremely difficult to find the button to upgrade, and have subsequently not bothered. Considering upgrades are part of your account, it would make sense to have a button in there. The one in the footer just doesn't cut it. Who even goes down there anyway?

Gotta agree. I wanted to know how to upgrade so I asked in chat since it's hard to find.

The footer of a website is always the first place I look when I want to find something. I'm shocked that it’s so difficult to locate.
Especially considering it’s at the bottom of every single page on this website, and is the only object in the footer besides our logo which contains color, making it stand out against all of the other resources we make available there.

I’m all for adding more redirects to our upgrades, but knowing that not everyone, not even a majority of our marketplace buys and sells Minecraft accounts, I do not want our move to "make it easier to find" to be hiding it within a very specific forum.

Since you couldn’t find it, maybe you could tell us where you looked for it first, and we could consider one of those places for placing another redirect. I’m not keen on putting it in the nav bar though, since that’s annoying to upgraded members who don’t want another one any time soon. If you looked in the usermenu though, or an account details page, those are possible additional locations for it.

As I mentioned in the post, it should be added in the "your account" page. That's the first place I looked and is likely the first place anyone else would go to upgrade their account. Seeing as the "upgrade" page technically directs you to that part of the website when you go onto it, it makes perfect sense to have a button on there.

I agree, having it on the nav bar would be too intrusive, hence having it on the "your account" page being the best option.

Reading your suggestion title, I took "in the 'accounts' section" to mean in the accounts forum, which is why I expressed why I thought it shouldn’t go there. If you merely meant the User Menu, then I wouldn’t be against that at all.

I can understand the confusion. Thanks.

It certainly is pretty intense.

Since the time that this suggestion was made we have made our account selling forums require Premium to even be able to see, which makes this redundant.

Denied, thanks for the suggestion
