I've just came back to DP after long time. i did not do anything that relates to IM or internet in general therefore i did not visit the website. Now when i am back suddenly there are sections i am incapable of posting to due to not being an established member or the fact i don't have premium membership.. seriously ? i have been a member for a long time and contributed to the forum in the past i am not a new user who's here just to leech ..
All positive rep in the old system was converted to likes, so users that were good/contributing members were established right at the beginning.
Let me get it straight........ you've been a member here for a long time. Yet you posted this thread initially in General Chat (I think I saw your post there a few hours back). Which means you have no respect for this forum. All you want to do is promote your crappy SK Design stuff. I will never use it. Do you think anyone else will? I doubt it. And............. why were you missing for so long?
DP has changed forum software and the rules have been modified to fit the features now included. If you read the rules, you'd notice that you need 3 likes now to become an established member. I had over that when the forum was converted. Know why? A few members liked what I posted on this forum. I think they might of been drunk that night when they gave me REP in the old forum system. If you search the forum, you'd see a ton of threads about this topic you just created. You don't need a premium membership to become an established member. If you want the perks you get as a premium member then upgrade your account.
I don't agree, as Shawn said "All positive rep in the old system was converted to likes," and I don't see much under your likes column. So I guess little more effort is needed
Thanks for replaying everyone i guess i will have to get those 3 likes. and bubbba77 i wont even bother wasting my time reacting to your nonsense.
