Re: Subscription

You know, it's been years and I'm still in awe that people call them subby/subbies.

Seriously, respect yourself.

How about you respect others before telling people to respect themselves. Anyways, I'm serious. Subscriptions. Extentions or no?

Re: Subscription

Why are people still asking about subscriptions? If you had a subscription, the forums will more than likely have record of it. Those who had subscriptions should get extended by however much they had left (or 10 months, if the subscription time exceeds FFR's down time).

EDIT: as far as the OP - it had been stated quite a few times that if you wanted Paypal to stop payment on your subscription, you had to do it manually. While I do agree that you should get a refund on your subscription time for the ten months that FFR was down for, you most definitely shouldn't be refunded for the time that the site was up because you were unsure of how to stop payment - but not in money. You should get a 10 month extension on your subscription only because you were paying for it while the site was down. Regardless of you knowingly doing it or not, you shouldn't get a cash value for it because you didn't take the initiative to get in contact with Paypal/your card company to stop the recurring charges.

Re: Subscription

I find it hilarious that while some people are spot on about the fact that it's the OP's own fault for being stupid enough to not contact his bank nor Paypal (namely because many services are recurring and require opt-out -- something you should ALWAYS look for),

it's equally hilarious that people are semi-defending the notion that the money is "lost." It's technically stealing. If you guys *really* wanted your money back, there are ways to do it. Synth is otherwise relying on the inaction of the young and uninformed when it comes to legal recompensation.

The monetary values involved on a case-by-case basis are not large. But if *many* people complained and filed? Collectively, the sum total of foregone payments represents a fair chunk of change for Synth that has, effectively, been stolen.

Honestly, there's no defending this. Synth, at some point, needs to make this up to his userbase. It's literally stealing money from people who don't know any better.

Re: Subscription

Well, I can't deny the fact that the payments not stopping automatically with the site being down for 10 months is wrong. But, it's just as we said - there's a serious problem if there was no contact with the bank/paypal for a year in a half with this recurring charge. There's faults on both sides.

oh burn

i need to reevaluate my life now

ps

At the moment, no. I may never bring back supporter status or may make supporter status exclusive for all "Pre-FFR Death" accounts and normal status for all "Post-FFR Death 10/10/10".

I am really undecided here but I do know that I need to work and sort out the subscriber issues before anything else happens.

Cheers,

Synthlight

tl;dr TBD

Re: Subscription

I'm sure Synth will figure out a way to make it up to those that were subscribers.

Your username says "ban me blazze"

I really couldn't hold off on the offer.

Also, yes, we will figure out a way to give back to the people who were affected by the downtime that had subscriptions.
