Hello,

Thank you for your support of Corvetteforum this last year! The Supporting Members are a key part of the site not only financially but from a participation standpoint. You are the heart of the site.

Unfortunately your subscription "Supporting Member" is about to expire. To extend it you must visit http://forums.corvetteforum.com/payments.php

If you choose not to participate in the Supporting Member program this year the system will automatically move you to the correct usergroup upon expiration of the subscription.

Thanks again for your support this past year!

hm... First off, I didn't realize that supporting membership was annual. I was under the impression that it was a one time deal.

You shoulda bought the "Lifetime Membership".

Now, because you're banned and all, you're screwed.

I'm not sure how much a "membership" is over there, but let's say that it's $100 a year.

This converts to about $0.27 a day

Now, let's say you've been banned for the last month, 30 days at $0.27 a day = $8.21

So, I would respond with a letter letting them know that you've been banned and you're still waiting for your refund of the unused portion of your membership for $8.21 and you would like to know when to be expecting it.

Why respond? It's probably read by a machine. Ask for a mailing address and send them a flattened roach.

2 days before they banned me, they had me in 'moderation'. That means your posts don't get posted right away, till a modhole views them.

I knew one way to defeat that garbage...

So I upped my ante from SM to LSM (automated). That over-rides 'moderation'. Really ticked off the modhole too, when I'm postin' right away, with 4 stars yup!

So he changed it to 6 month ban. 3 days later, the charges went through. GRRR. Took 2 months to get that back. (the stars are still up too).

The other way is a little more challenge. If you're already banned, you're gonna' have to write (or google) some script hack for their software. The version they have is archaic, and not hard to beat. Might take some time tho; lots of searchin'.

Ok, I didn't hear any of that.

My method was more crude. I posted about 100 times the first day of moderation just to keep them busy. And on day 2 I was bored and quit posting. Some of the posts would take 3-4 days to go through.

John, how long are you banned for? Forever? I heard it was a year. Maybe if you offer to buy a lifetime membership, they will let you back in?


J/K

I am a supporting member, but this is the last year for that sh*t. They chased away all of the knowledgeable people.

Make sure you tell them that. Send a PM to the IB rep on the forum and CC it as well to savewave.

I have no comment about their memberships... it's also the #1 reason why I don't ever expect to offer them here.

It was a year last I checked. Who knows if they upped the ante, wouldn't be the first time.
