Can someone explain this..

sometimes when a thread gets moved to the mod board, there is still a link to it here.


So when you click on it, it gives you this page that says this area is for platinum memebers only.. and tells you to sign up.


So say I was a clueless non plat like jerseyart and I said "ok I really wanna read this thread titled 'digger ass raped my dad'" so I shell out the 1.97 for platinum and then log in and I STILL can't view the damn thread!

Would I get a refund or what?

Why doesn't it just say "this thread has been deleted or moved and you can't read it period" why try to scam us into going platty?

I agree. This pisses me off as well

its just lame

its also lame how many of the ads on the site says that "if you sign up TODAY" or "for today only!"

when you know its gonna say that same shit tomorrow.. and the next day

It is a sellers gimmick. i stressed when i joined. i could not get my computer to work so I got it fixed, begged the sales guy to sell me the online books and make me plat. Damn. I was not a SMARTMOFO then

you see it in other areas.

Say someone gave me karma on a post on a thread that was trashed.

I can see the post title in my profile when viewing my karma.. if I click on that, it will say I need to be platinum to view it.... its an outright lie.
