Good Bye Forever

Silver Saviour · 07-03-2009, 08:03 AM

Well Im leaving.

I thought about it, and decided that girls getting free VIP accounts isn't okay with me. I understand the purpose, and understand its DDs choice and site to do with as he wishes. Saying this however, I find it incredibly discriminatory and unfair. I think it is a sexist, unfair move. Yes your response 'they dont get it strait away' may justify it to some, but Girls, or those claiming to be so, get it 30 posts in, while those unable to get the VIP, be it money or payment issues for any reason, regardless of thread quality, quality of membership, if male are practicaly exempt.

You can all call me an idiot, or say Im over reacting, but really think about it, all those who dont have VIP accounts. Arent you fucked off your expected to pay no matter how well you post when girls or those claiming to be so get it free in a week.

You always say if you dont like something than just leave, well I am. And I say to all those good posters who arent VIP, maybe you should do the same. And those who are paying VIP memberships maybe you should stop. Its grosely unfair, so yeah have a nice life.

I pay every year for my VIP access. it's I think a buck a month. I mean crap for what you are getting in return it certainly is worth it. As far as women getting VIP access quicker, well it's pretty basic since I started posting on forums back in about 1998 there always seems to be a lack of women on forums. So any women we can get to post on a daily basis is a plus. We usually have less than 5 women here on a daily basis. Sometimes less than 10 per week.

Before the last few that have joined the only daily woman who posted, and really contributed that I can think of was Jasmine. So honestly anytime we can get more woman I think they deserve a few special rights. I don't think it's very easy to be a woman on a message board, and I'm all for seeing more women here posting.

Anyway, sad to see you go hopefully you get over it, and keep posting. You already have won two awards in the short time you've been here so clearly you are a valued member.

Yeah, you're right, you are overreacting. It's really no reason to leave a forum.

And like Necro I hope you return.

I can see why it can be viewed as sexiest and unfair, but it's really just good sense to keep the women happy (and we all know how important that is for a quiet life). As Necro has pointed out the lack of female activity on the site is an issue... Having said that, it's a wrestling board, girls that don't like wrestling aren't gonna join simply cos they get access to a fuckload of wrestling videos and porn, but those that do may, I suppose, stick around for those priviliges.

Anyway, it is a shame to see a member whose opinions I respected, and debates I enjoyed to leave over such a minor issue. Sad to see you leave Saviour.

Plus, it's not like people are are plats use the media section and sb all the time. I'd say most people who have plats don't use the SB, and I'm guessing use the media section rarely. If you want plat for a recognition factor, theres really no point in that, since most active people on this board have one. It's quite babyish, but to each their own. I liked you, and you were a good poster...but bye.

Balla · 07-03-2009, 01:06 PM

yeah, i only use plat to talk in the shoutbox, and the occasional VIP forums

Necro · 07-03-2009, 01:11 PM

Lets not downplay VIP. It is pretty fun lol.

Understand why you think it's sexiest seeing as it really is but at the same time it is a good incentive to gain more female posters. Before Roxy, Kayla & xXxMarysexXx joined it was pretty much Just Jasmine as the only female poster. We pretty much need more regular female posters on this board and this is a good way to try & gain some more.

Tommy Platinum · 07-03-2009, 02:54 PM

I don't understand the point about NEEDING female posters. They're just the same as any other poster...right?

But once again, it is DD's decision and hardly seems a big enough issue to leave over. I can see the logic in it even if I don't agree with it, but even if I couldn't, it's not a big deal.

Kimura · 07-03-2009, 03:03 PM

I've said this 100 times already and I'll say it again. DD is the only guy losing money here by doing that, so if it's unfair, it's only unfair to him.

Also, it's like going to a nightclub where girls get in for free...are you gonna complain about that?
