What xenophon said. Paid Monday, funds cleared Wednesday, still Guest. Sorry to keep badgering about it.
Testing, 1, 2…check check…is this thing on?
I paid via CC, my user CP, under subscriptions says i’m paid up till next year…
yet my name still only shows up as MEMBER…
What up with that?
never mind. It seems it only work son NEW posts.
Long time lurker. . .first time poster. . .now a subscriber! Will the changes and experiences ever end!! 
I would like at least one more change, though, and that is to have “Charter Member” appear after my name. Afterall, I paid that whopping $5 membership fee. . .small price for HUGE entertainment. . .uh. . .learning 
Another member status test post. 
I don’t think this will work until Monday, but what the hell.
We’ve made a few spot checks - so far it appears that when an eCheck clears, we’re electronically notified by PayPal and the member’s status is automatically upgraded. Whether we’ll get notifications over the weekend we don’t know. One caution - if anyone is planning to pay by eCheck, please don’t wait till the last minute; the payment may not clear till after the rate has gone up to $14.95.
This is a test post. My e-check has cleared. I’m not requesting action, but if this still says Guest, I hope to be changed.

hmmmm, dunno. My past posts still just say “member”.
I guess if one doesn’t have a card they’re left without an option.
Quite biased really, elitist.
I paid by PayPal (checked, and it went through) but no receipt in my email…
It looks like I’m in this boat too. All my old posts still list me as a “member” but not a “charter member”. I’ve gotten an e-mail receipt, and my subscription shows up in the user cp.
Just a quick test. Apparently, if you post once after subscription (I have all the features, just it still says Guest), you magically turn into a charter member. Lets see…
Chartering myself…
What’s the difference between Member and Charter Member under everyone’s names? I thought everyone reverted to guest.
Mine still not changed.
I, too, have not received the ego gratification of having my title changed to “Charter Member.” This is as bad as the time the machine broke just as I was next to get a star on my belly so I could be like the really cool Sneetches (with apologies to Dr. Seuss). Please help. Thanks in advance, Rob
Subscribed on Saturday. Still waiting for my fancy-schmancy title!
Apparently, this magic EvilHamster speaks of is real!
