I believe you get some premium features along with the subscribtion which probably is the main reason people are paying for it though I'm sure some just want the blue tick too.

why hide it in this case then, you got your features (some seem to think that being able to push their messages and have them at the top is the one a lot are going for that want to have the blue tick removed) what would be your reason to be like I dont need people to see that.

You get to keep the premium features even if you hide the blue checkmark. There's no downside to it.

Then you are saying there is an upside to it. Why would hiding that your posts are promoted and your comments come first has an upside if you wernt trying to game some system?
