How about SC. Oh, and the classifieds, I guess you shouldn't be able to list unless your "Premier". Fuck all, should non-premier members be able to post at all? Maybe they should just have viewing privledges... that sounds good, yeah. I hope you're kidding. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have no ability to not click on them so clearly they should be separated into another forum that I can go into and complain about how the entire forum is all polls Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well, that's silly if you ask me. If you think it sucks or you are jealous for some reason.. why don't you buy the membership. I plan to as soon as I can find a stinkin job. The site is well worth it and HH has done a fine job for us. It's kind of like the Drunk Dial forum... not everything is for everyone. Now let's all play nice shall we?

Maybe it would do well for folks to actually read what HH has written regarding premier membership as to dispell any rumors, specualtion and innuendo. I saw Sunny making a joke.

I can't anyways. There is a hint of truth though. I mean HH has had to disable the polling function due to over use / abuse. Just a thought "Find out just what any people will quietly submit to and you have found out the exact measure of injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them."

Yes, I read that, but many people seem to want to make it mandatory to buy the membership else lose stuff you currently have access to. You join, and get more features. I won't use them, so I won't join. I'm all for anyone who joins, that's great... I just don't feel the need right now. I apologized to Sunshine, guess I just felt the need to say something about it finally, and it just happened to be addressed to the wrong person (someone who was seemingly mocking the idea, actually). This is about the "POLL" function, not premier membership, though, so i'll stop posting about it now and leave you to your poll about polls. thx. -A Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well said BB, so for the lazy, or uneducated, there is this: http://www.dropzone.com/cgi-bin/safety/detail_page.cgi?ID=508 or this: "We very deliberately made a decision that nothing that has been free in the past will become part of the Premier services. You will be able to continue enjoying Dropzone.com exactly as you have without ever giving us a penny. That's the way I want it." And as we all know, this ain't no damned democracy....

What was free remains free. No losses to those that chose not to become Premier members. Those that have joined, chose to do so because they saw an added value. Quite simple.

Maybe they should just have viewing privledges... that sounds good, yeah. Does it really matter? If this site was only premier members would it still be the best skydiving site on the net? Yup. Would HH's business plan be more cost effective? Yup, since non-paying people wouldn't be chewing up his very costly bandwidth. Does it matter what any of us think on the matter? NOPE, HH will do what he damned well pleases with this site. Honestly I think its asinine to use top notch resource and fun thing such as DZ.com and not even bat an eye at helping the guy out that created, maintains and pays to keep it on the net.--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline."
