Honestly, I had been a member of VIP for a number years, having dropped it once and pick it back up for a few more. I don't see the value in it. As far as posts go it was relatively dead throughout the years, with all the real relevant posts showing up in the free area. Also, I have a pet peeve here. There is obvious bias between certain posters. I point to when the new system went online how some people, like myself, found their "likes" numbers reset to zero, where other more prominent Posters kept their numbers. I inquired about this back in May and was assured it was going to be looked at and fixed. Talk about a line of BS.
Just calling a spade a spade here. On top of being a VP I was a multi-year donor. I actually was put on probation at one point or calling somebody a "baby cry". Really? I think that's going a little overboard with the moderators. Anyway, I would not advocate the VIP to anyone. I feel if you want to help the website make a donation.
If you wanted my money, I would insist on the site starting a part of the post area as a quote "negative free zone". The complainers on this site cry and cry what if you criticize even the least bit you end up on probation.
