Woot - I seem to be back. Thanks!
Coincidence? I think not!
Testing, testing…is thing thing on?
Thanks Jerry!
Thanks, Jerry!
I am seriously getting pissed off here. Others have gotten their charter membership back, but I still haven’t.
ETA- I’d like an explanation from somebody other than another poster, please.
Well, Ike, have you been paying? You’re not a Member, you’re a Guest.
(I’m not just another poster. I’m a Pepper! Wouldn’t you like to be a Pepper, too?)
I have been paid in full since the board went to subscriptions. I changed my user name at the same time we migrated to the new server (I used to be adam yax). Again, I’d like to know why my charter membership has not been restored, since there is no reason I should not have it.
E-mail a mod, admin or Jerry.
Your account isn’t showing a subscription at all (much less one that was not paid in time to retain a Charter Member subscription–which is usually the case), so this is being sent on to Jerry to take a peek at.
Is it back?
Just testing (crosses fingers).
ETA: Yes!! [Cartman] Respect my authoritay! [/Cartman]
Testing
IN case Ike doesn’t post again in this thread, he got his title back. It was a weird case of changing names and the software deleted his subscription data. Jerry took care of this.

I was a (paid) member but I dropped out for a while. Just recently I started posting again but I’m now a guest. Is the board free now, or do I have to pay to be reinstated as a member?
You can now post as an unpaid “guest” for as long as you like. If you become a paid member again, you won’t have to look at any ads.
I finally have my charter status back.
There was much rejoicing…
Yay!!! Yippee, Yahoo, Eureka, etc!!!

Am I or am I not?
YEAH!!! I’m back.
Eh hem. I plan to do to do much more posting now that my goldplated status has been restored. Not that I’ll have anything more interesting to say now, but still.
