I don't trade any more, but I like badges

edit: I spent more on lunch today then I did for the badge...now I just need to start playing the USPL and become a mod...

Sweet!

Edit: Questions,

Is it every NEW thread after we bought it? Or every thread including existing ones?

snkp360 · 08-11-2009, 06:51 PM

I believe its just NEW threads

paintballer35 · 08-11-2009, 06:54 PM

i think its existing ones as well because i can bump my old threads from my subscriptions page if i wanted.

I like the idea.

May want to remove the note about BST Trusts on the ASM sign up page.

** Due to technical reasons, you will still have to make a $0.01 (one penny) transaction with Paypal to complete BST Trust.

Who reads the fine print anways.

Yes, you need a confirmed address for it to work.

So since I already payed for it when I have my confirmed address it should be activated?

You will either get an email saying that you have been successfully subscribed, or one saying that your subscription failed because you are either unconfirmed or unverified with paypal. Check your email and see which you got. If your subscription failed, you'll be refunded manually by CS@PbNation, and once you've confirmed and verified your account you can resubscribe.

I have to agree with these two personally. I think it needs to be earned, not just boughten. Anyone can go and confirm an address and pay this, that doesn't mean they're trustworthy. But when someone has 100+ and no negative feedback, then you can say they're trustworthy. My opinion I guess. And I feel all ASM should get the multiple bump option, not be forced to buy this.

agreed...take away those stupid BST trusts that we have to pay $0.01 for and give us that instead...

For anyone who got the BST trust badge. Kyle made me make a thread in WTB. And it came up with the banner and the shield next to it. It was made for thread's made while you have the BST trust badge, maybe it will be adjusted to existing ones as well?

Those BST trusts aren't existent anymore anyways. They are no longer listed as a part of the ASM subscription as well as the button missing in BST threads.

1stGenRex · 08-11-2009, 11:44 PM

hahahah maybe I should have added the

this is just a way to get $30 more from a member. not cool.

I like this idea but disagree with the stipulation that its just another revenue source for pbn.

Not to mention these badges are getting out of control.
