Nice scam, then.

See your Communist representative about a workers meeting. Set up a protest. Clip the tips off your havanas and talk it over.

I was among the first to sign up for PolyPLUS because I believe that what has existed here is something worth supporting. Sadly, although the staff and ownership have (I believe) honestly attempted to foster the community here, they have lost sight of what made this place worth visiting in the first place. If they'd get over trying to "set an example" of Asher or anyone else who irks them and get back to the job of facilitating an enjoyable experience here, I wouldn't feel I had to withdraw my share of the financial support (small though it may be).

You signed up for a specific length of time, not on a per-month basis or anything like that. This is exactly the kind of attitude that is at the root of the problems here. I signed up because I supported the site. This isn't the same thing as a cable subscription.

Sucked in! Witness the true face of Poly...

It's more like donating money to a political party or a charity you respect. Hardly - in those cases the organisations are trying to change the world in some way. Message boards are basically about entertainment and socialising. Perhaps with some education thrown in.

Apolyton is neither a political party nor a charity. Nor a NGO of some sorts. Besides, any time you purchase a service, you should read the rules. PLUS rules have said that there would be no refunds all along.

PolyPLUS, to my understanding, was never about making money. It was a symbolic way of actively covering the costs of running the site. Passively collecting money off of advertising banners does nothing for the continuation of the healthy community needed to keep a site like this running. Asking members of that community to actively give over a token amount to contribute to the costs does. I now want that token amount back.

Yes. The bills need to be paid regardless. Having a sugar daddy foot the bill or relying on advertising is all well and good. But this creates an active bond between member and community. It's the exact same thing as passing around a collection plate at a church.

It's the exact same thing as passing around a collection plate at a church. not really, people donate to the church thinking they will be saved from eternal hell

as for plus, when the "bonded" member requests a money refund from the community then your concept has failed
