Journals, Subscribers

po0k

1. The Journals are down. Regi says Oops?

2. I seem to nolonger be a "subscriber", ie. PM message limit back to 150, can't access Subscriber's forum.
I'm also a fair while overdue subscription payments, but will be lodging money after my exams.

Following a decision at the boards.ie admin meeting at the weekend, any unpaid subscribers were downgraded. You can upgrade through the Subscriptions link in your CP.

I'm gone too. Subscriptions says I'm good till August, but Group Memberships has been disabled, as has my ability to edit my tag.



Access to Subs forum gone too, I assume everything else is too

uberwolf

prompted by Seamus - I'mgrand = pain by Paypal (in Dec). So maybe the way the payment was made is distinguishing people?

Cloud

Peculiar. The Subscriptions should correspond to you being in the Subscribers usergroup, and it didn't for you. Fixed.

I always through RMods ~= CMods?

Are the Subscriptions only payable through PayPal or is a direct bank a/c lodgement possible?

you can set up an annual standing order to the above account. works the same as a Direct Debit except you send them the money rather than them taking it.

BuffyBot

doesn't look doeie enough imo buffy

I think I might start gently sobbing soon! I only paid up 3/4 months ago :O

Beruthiel

BuffyBot

I want pics!

Cruel woman. You're enjoying my pain!

We have a bank account alright, but I guess one of the other admins can give you the details.

RMods were upgraded to full mods some time back - congratulations

BuffyBot

Gentle sobbing isn't working..time for Plan B. It would help if I had a Plan B I guess!

You need to be a subscriber to view that page.
I'm having the same problem seamus. Taught journals were down for the past 2 day for repair or upgrade or something.
Logged out and I can view them now

BuffyBot

Mmm, can I please have my subscriber features back seem as I paid for em?

(Gentle hinting didn't seem to be working!)

Winters

Forgot about my subscription...

Seeing as though I got my credit card today [finally] I might aswell provide you with some support again... though, I think it would be a good idea to wait for my next paycheque first.

Cloud

BuffyBot, can you open a Help Desk ticket - because I don't know who you gave your money to or how long you paid for - and at least then we can tell the appropriate person.

LaFortezza - I know you've already PMed me, but maybe you could do the same and we can get DeV to fix it if he was dealing with it - thanks!

Already done

Which I did, I fairly sure I'm paid up, but thanks for removing my subscription without any warning. After all, it's vitally important to piss off the central core of people willing to spend 50 bucks a year on a website.

The correct way to have done this would have been to post an announcement saying that current subscribers had a week to pay up before being cut off. It would have also advertised the fact that you can subscribe and thus recruited more to the fold. Nobody pissed off + More money = SUPER HAPPY FUN TIME!

But no, it's the old "make changes and deal with the fallout afterwards" approach as usual.

P.s. I can't access my journal now. Has it been deleted? Or just put offline?

it keeps us on our toes though, and most of us could do with the exercise

Awwwww but at least we can enjoy a good amp rant now. In fairness nobody was pushing your "Drama Queen" buttons much lately and the world is far more entertaining when you go off on a rant. And no I'm not taking a dig, amp rants are a welcome relief from the general numbness.


And now I sound like a fan boy. <shuts up>

Uhm

I never got an email from paypal to say the payment was picked up, but I pm'ed your goodself Cloud about it and you fowarded the pm to DeV and he replied saying he'd collect the payment from paypal.
I still never got a pick up receipt email from paypal though and its now over 5 months since the money left my account.

Not really, your giving your opinion about well.. my opinion. Feedback is important. Maybe if I and others keep ranting about the fire and forget approach and the need to change it, maybe it will.
