Joshua Posted July 11, 2009 Report Share Posted July 11, 2009 Should it have been communicated in a way in which that does not promote nagativity you would have been informed that you can also be upgraded to the better package for no extra fee due to your regular support.

Data Posted July 11, 2009 Report Share Posted July 11, 2009 VIP's have either been here a long time, posted a lot, helped us out, or paid the higher subs fee. I am glad that people who help out can get a free upgrade . Does the inverse work... those that are a pain in the arse get a downgrade? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joshua Posted July 11, 2009 Report Share Posted July 11, 2009 Il think about that Good idea. You would have made a larger donation or something? I can downgrade you if you like? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joshua Posted July 11, 2009 Report Share Posted July 11, 2009 That maybe what you believe but it certainly wasnt stated as insult to you or was it directed for your attention so you have no right at all to tell someone to fuck off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Data Posted July 11, 2009 Report Share Posted July 11, 2009 Your apology is accepted, Shelley . I went to my local MIND drop-in centre today, its good for a social inadequate like me to actually get some people contact for a change!!! Its so much easier speaking to people face-to-face. The internet brings with it many advantages but also many opportunities for misinterpretation in communication. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benway Posted July 11, 2009 Report Share Posted July 11, 2009 i also find the 3-tier-system to be elitist. and unfair. i agree with shelley with her point of view. and joshua, you are very snappy of late, i have noticed this from sarcasm to plain rudeness to subscribing and non sub members. why do people pay money to get abused and 'lol'led at, and sarky remarks from a MH professional such as you? i notice the vips dont get as many sarky responses. you know bpd, as a professional, i cant help but feel that your remarks are inappropriate, considering some of us are ill, alone, in crisis, hurting, plain broke, paranoid, etc. benway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Data Posted July 11, 2009 Report Share Posted July 11, 2009 I actually think Joshua does a good job on here. He comes across a bit aloof and sarcastic sometimes, but its just the way he is, he has BPD as well and if he opens up emotionally to people on here then the trolls will sieze on it and rip him apart. He is always being criticised but I expect he works very hard and he has always been fair to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sammy Posted July 11, 2009 Report Share Posted July 11, 2009 Benway there was a tier system before and it never caused any issues the only difference now is that one extra tier was added and more ppl can access it without paying money. I think this is better than before because now those that can't afford to pay and don't have the time or ability to contribute their time as a welcomer or peer supporter still have the opportunity of the added benefits of the extra tier system by being long term members of having a certain number of posts.

Roses Posted July 11, 2009 Report Share Posted July 11, 2009 Perhaps a full explaination of the new system would help put people's minds at rest? Just a suggestion, I'm cool with it all but was thinking of others. xxx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joshua Posted July 11, 2009 Report Share Posted July 11, 2009 Yes im sarci, thats me and part of who i am. The other point you make about treating people differently though, no im sorry i treat everyone the same. The difference is if ive spent days and nights with this complete overhaul and then some members start describing things with words such as disgusting, of course I am going to be bothered.

Sammy Posted July 11, 2009 Report Share Posted July 11, 2009 There was a full explanation of how it works in the notice board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
em Posted July 11, 2009 Report Share Posted July 11, 2009 there is a full explination of the changes in the notice board, also links to the subs area where it is listed who gets what how you can get it etc. Before only paying members got sponsor status, now everything is open for paying and non paying members. How is this unfair? Josh has worked bloody hard on all this and gets shit for everything he does. I THINK THAT IS UNFAIR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roses Posted July 11, 2009 Report Share Posted July 11, 2009 I completely support Josh 100% with the changes and think this place is great. I only mentioned the explaination of changes cos I missed it and hadn't seen it myself. Sorry. xxx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roxy222 Posted July 11, 2009 Report Share Posted July 11, 2009 i prefered just being a member, but thats prob just me. if anything appears even unintentionaly elitist i like being on the bottom rung. i agree some are treated better than others though, i have said that here before, that this place comes across cliquey, however as i dislike cliques of all sorts i am glad i am someone who is on the outside Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
