|
I was reading about the VIP membership in the general forum, I think it would be a good idea to add a paragraph on that in the Request FAQ... and also to have somewhere indicating when it's VIP restricted time only. People are very confused about this (especially since it just started) and ask the question "why can't I request today?" on the chat all the time.

That's the plan. I'll probably also alter the newbie faq, or post an addendum. |

For now I've stuck a general VIP faq (in the faq section), to let you guys know what the latest is with the VIP section. |

You know would make it a lot more user friendly, especially with the amount of new people who come across this site everyday, is that you allow non VIPs the same courtesy as before, but only to an extent. Hence, you allow them to request a song only within the alloted time limit as it used to be, and give the VIPs the option to request whenever they want. I think thats more of an incentive to become a VIP than to strip their request abilities altogether. some of the people who come across this site may not have the luxury of having the credit card to use for the VIP registration |

Because it would make the queue like 5 hours long, which defeats the purpose of going to VIP. Even if we could request all we wanted, it would still be the 5 hours before our song got to the top.

Besides, not having a credit card is not an excuse. Live365 accepts several methods for payment. Do your homework.
