It doesn't encourage engagement with the community. It encourages spam. A better solution would be X number of posts, OR a member for X years.
People caught spamming get a post count reduction, so they get nowhere.
The deals in MM are now live.

Hey, it's your forum, you do you, but as someone who has been here for 13 years, and an OCUK customer longer, it feels like a kick in the nuts.People caught spamming get a post count reduction, so they get nowhere.

THere is no perfect solution sadly. Here's to hoping they take pity on us and just pop us a DM with a code... Aye?Hey, it's your forum, you do you, but as someone who has been here for 13 years, and an OCUK customer longer, it feels like a kick in the nuts.
CANT WAIT!!!!
I LITERALLY JUST RAN HOME I WAS A FEW MILES AWAY NO CREDIT CARD ON ME LOL
Dripping with sweat now I am so unfit!!!!!!
I 100% promise I am not a scalper, the card will be used for my own personal use, in my PC for gaming!!!!! I will not even sell my old one that will go to my 14 year old son.
Any idea on what time?
Indeed.i wonder how many will be on ebay by the end of the day

Just called. The cost is closer to £600 but you need the member forum code to get it. To be fair it's good they are trying to stop the scalpers this way, but how would you know the long time forum users aren't scalpers themselves. i'm sure if stock is coming in here, it will appear elsewhere soon too.

Again, that kinds sucks for people like myself, who have been members here for a ling time, but don't post often
I don't want to spam 900+ posts just to access the MM. Seems counter productive.
Blame the countless people who scalped the last public forum deal that we did. Can't say that we weren't willing to try but we were left sorely disappointed by the end result.I understand there is no perfect solution for this current situation we have, but OCUK does have to know they've gatekeeped out genuine people/consumers too.
I'm not saying do a public forum deal. I'm saying those who have been here a long time, but who don't post often, should be allowed access to the MM. How is a 2021 registered user with 1000 posts more deserving than a 10+ year forum veteran with 100 posts?Blame the countless people who scalped the last public forum deal that we did.

Absolutely nothing to do with any staff member. Bans are handed out by forum admin and they must have had a reason. You need to plea to themMay I enquire when my ban will be lifted?
we've gone over this numerous times in the last few months, we looked at a way of creating a section with looser access requirements but we're not able to within the abilities of the current forum (which I've been told is in the process of being updated along with the website)I'm not saying do a public forum deal.
