Found this page and thought I'd fill in some information.
I started playing OD&D in 1977. Started DMing shortly afterwards and haven't looked back.
Only play AD&D 1/1.5 (with the Unearthed Arcana mods).
I have been running the same campaign (with different characters, as each group of characters hits the high 'teens, I retire them and start a new group) since 1984.
Found this site through Stack Exchange and so far I like it and so do my players.
However, I don't like the way they implement the procedure to become an Ascendant member.
Really? Using a Popup to ask for CC information in 2015? (Sorry, but I'm in information security in the real world and that is just amazing.)
I sent a letter to the administrators but it seems like I will be purchasing a PrePaid card to do the upgrade.

Welcome to the site.
Folk have complained that the support staff are ... difficult to get a hold of.
General complaints to this situation seem to be culminating in the "launch feedback":http://forums.obsidianportal.com/comments.php?DiscussionID=3394&page=20#Item_14 thread.
If email generates nothing, you can always use the "bug tracking system":http://help.obsidianportal.com/
I don't work for the site, so this is just my opinion.

My issue with popups and security is what @Bortas said above. No way to tell if the popup is pointed to the site, no way to be sure if it's secure.
I would personally suggest, if a popup is absolutely required, to ensure that an address bar is there so security and location can be verified, otherwise, adding a tab to the browser or just having it in the main browser window would be more reassuring that the payment is heading where it is supposed to be heading.
