    Honestly... there are some VIP I personally think that shouldn't be VIP. The post count thing was getting anyone into it. We should reset everyone and everyone should have a fair chance to earn it. Most VIP do deserve it but some don't. If we reset it, those who really deserve it shouldn't have a problem getting it back. I mean I would have posted a lot more private content, but some people there I just can't trust. I know VIP are going to be mad with this post, but hey.. why not just re-earn it. In the long run it will strengthen our VIP section.

    Post your feelings or thoughts on this...

    I guess this is a kinda good idea, but wouldn't it be easier to just demote those who didn't deserve it so that the others wouldn't have to get demoted for nothing.

    Well we all know that this is directed at people like V3nom, but everyone else hasn't done anything I would say is bad enough to get demoted.

    You can't just demote certain individuals... I did not direct it at anyone... I think it would best interest the site.

    I agree, no members like V3NOM.

    It would be a good idea but two many people would get mad that deserve it. Overall i think it would be a big mess ending up in many people leaving.

    I know it wasn't directed at anyone, but It just so happens he fits the description of the problem.

    The members mentioned above should be the only VIP lol. The rest are either inactive, or flame others, or post nothing (leech). Someone recently showed our VIP content to someone over TeamViewer, and I have yet to find out who it was.

    Those members keep vip, the rest go (in my opinion). But ultimately it's up to the final decision of all current staff what should be done.

    I agree with slip, but I believe the demoted members should still be given the option to earn it back later.

    I never said permanently, I mean as a solution to the problem.

    Everyone would have a chance at earning it back.

    We really can't single members out like that... It needs to be an all or none deal in my opinion.

    Hey, if you deserve it you shouldn't have trouble re-earning it.

    Yea, except the select few (D.HeRo, MFone, .MeLo) - should keep it, they've been around and had VIP for over 8 months.

    Dark, lol that is so flawed. Ok, you are sub-admin... I was VIP longer then you and a member before you... Does that mean I should be respected and higher then you?

    Them guys you named do deserve it, but so do others... For example KD or Dansomee.

    Staff should hold a vote on who should get in like 10 members or something to start it off.

    That sounds good and the rest can just earn it back.

    I only named members I remember from way back.

    Whatever we do with VIP, I will never let MFone lose his VIP. He was given it LONG before any active members here, him and nielsss where the only reason I got VIP/Modded.

    MeLo helped bring the current site back together (even though he was hacked several times), he deserves to keep VIP. D.HeRo stepped down from staff (I think), so he also gets to keep VIP, or I just move him to Retired Staff.


    Idk what Peaches wants to do, I stand behind all his decisions.

    I think this will actually be a good idea.
