Dear DIDI,

Your access to the paid subscription "Premium Members - 1 Month" is about to expire.

If you have selected a recurring subscription you will be automatically billed for the renewal, else to renew this subscription you must visit [url]http://www.mercuryserver.com/forums/payments.php[/url]

If you do not extend your subscription, access will be removed.

All the best, [ms]

Read that thread. From you ,

[QUOTE]Yeah, it's related to ad-free browsing. You get it automatically when you subscribe to 15 artists, and also if you have donated in the past. There are no recurring charges here, so ignore that part. It's the default vbulletin message.. I need to update it so it's more meaningful.[/QUOTE]

And my answer at the time and is still very much applicable.

[QUOTE]Well actually I have subscribed to more than 15 artists and I have donated in the past. I am being billed monthly :) Paypal went though again yesterday. And when I did ignore it at one stage I got the ads back [/QUOTE]

This was never answered last time.

Frankly it pisses me off that I get something like this , I have donated hundreds of dollars to this site. Then to get hassled for a meagre $2 a month .:evil:

Re: What is this ??? Who got it ??

DIDI, you're a poignant lady, go about your own business. just disregard the ads, and pay them no heed and attention... it's all bullshit really.

the only reason advertising, span and popups exist is because people are stupid - they will still get suckered into glamorous dross and waste.

Re: What is this ??? Who got it ??

^^ Thank you, but It's not actually about the ads, I promise you I will not respond to any of them . :lol:

Re: What is this ??? Who got it ??

pardom me not seeing your plight: so what is the problem?

don't let the hassle get to you dear. really.

somewhat off subject, but i can't stand the absurd amount of hassle i have to put up in everyday life, nowadays, in this deep, silent depression. it sucks; i deal with it by getting over it. it;s hard times for everyone. we all could throw in our 2cents fosho. the cost of living sucks, and everyone is stooping to all time lows just tryin' to make ends meat. fuck :(

anywho, so i've really been fucking with advertising agencies, solicitors etc. as vindicating payback as the days go by. loads of fun! :)

#1524973Post 16 of 28

Re: What is this ??? Who got it ??

Thank you, I think I stated problem fairly clearly :lol: Strangely enough I've over the hassled, just disappointed at the inevitability, and a tad sad for what used to be.

Really sorry about the deep silent depression, it really does suck :( The advice you are giving me, listen to it :)

#1524975Post 17 of 28

Re: What is this ??? Who got it ??

ah, yeah. i've only been here for a few years, but i see what you mean...


yes, i do listen to it. you should come statside for a long visit --- as the recession (millions will agree that it's really a bad depression, no doubt about it) is much more evident (overall) and shitty over here.

it's the people that are hurting the most.

#1524978Post 18 of 28

Re: What is this ??? Who got it ??

what is even more interesting, is how people try to hide the fact that they are hurting big time financially: all seems quite normal and fair on the surface...

californians really do a good job at this masquerade

Very true.

Re: What is this ??? Who got it ??

I do pay attention to what is happening in the states, we get a lot of good information. But even just looking at the stats you can see it is pretty bad.. Australia is too small to be too insular. We have to pay attention :)

It's pretty much human nature to put up a good front when things are bad financially.
