Flood Protection?!

Post by **Tigereye** » Mon Mar 10, 2008 1:08 pm

I don't think Supporters and Supporter+s are blocked by flood control.

If you don't like flood control, donate /mrgreen.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="mrgreen.gif" />

I am still blocked and I am a supporter +, if I remember correctly. (I donated 20$ some time ago.) I wont donate any further money, as I pay enough money for the server and use up plenty of time for the helpline already. /smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />

EDIT: I just (re-)spotted the supporter + token below my name, so yes, I am a S+ and there still is a flood gate in control.

Supporters, Supporter+s, Helpline Moderators and Zone Leaders are now exempt from flood control /smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />

TE I donate yearly and have never gotten my Supporter Tag.

I remember Thal was going to do something about it and it never went anywhere - and its not to big of a deal as long as the money gets where its going..that is until I have to deal with flood control. Any chance you can look into it?

I donated and my supporter tag didn't come though ... so I asked TE to fix it /mrgreen.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="mrgreen.gif" />

(It did not take him any time at all)

Spidey, when you use the forum's "purchase subscription" feature, the donation is sent to Thalgor and your account is upgraded automatically.
If you just send the money using paypal directly, the forums won't know about it so won't upgrade you.

I can send an email to ask Thalgor if he received your donation if you like. If he finds it, I can upgrade your forum account with a few clicks.

Well if flood protection is staying and you don't mind...I'd appreciate it!

Edit: To make it super easy my first one was on Dec. 19, 2005 with my user name in the item title

Thanks!

I think it is still not working...

EDIT:
"The error returned was:
Flood control is enabled on this board, please wait 60 seconds before replying or posting a new topic"

Please, get rid off it again and turn it on, once it is needed again.

That sorta defeats the point of using it.
