Add a rule about being "rankist" not allowed.

[Cooltime2]

Today, I have seen arguments about premium and nonpremium for shoutbox. I think that the premium community shouldn' be "rankist". What do I mean by that? Disrespecting nonpremium members of mcm without any evidence so. Excluding them from a conversation from the shoutbox. Most importantly, segregate them from any discussion on McM relating to business. There have to be rules of how premium/supreme should act. Premium/Supreme are not superior to members. They all are equal with mcm rules. Any suggestion suggested by the community should be added to the original post.

This is a joke... right?

People should have the freedom to communicate with who and however they want. If donors want to talk with other donors and not non-donors, let them. They actually contributed something to this website.

I think this is completely silly. If a user doesn't want to deal with someone because of their rank, account age or whatever, let them. It's completely up to them to decide. If a user is being disrespectful to someone, report it.

I agreed to that; however, you have seen the community split already between premium and nonpremium. Also, the drama between nonpremium and premium on CakeSG suggestion thread.

Cooltime2 you should add a poll

I cannot add a poll because the suggestion thread doesn't allow that. Although that is a good suggestion to add because the agree ratings are being abused so much in the suggestion thread.

I think its fun for non premiums to look at shoutbox. Its hilarious when I saw GamingStudioX pm me on skype saying am I awake lol. There's no problem with them looking at shoutbox, they cant even msg on shoutbox which I think is a shame and should change. like add a system if 5 premium members invite a non premium into the chat and a mod can use their discretion or not to kick them out if violating rules etc.

Those are individuals expressing their opinions which doesn't represent the entire community.

Also, regarding CakeSG's thread: of course non-premiums will be opposed to it. Nobody wants to have something taken away, even if it's listening to other people's conversations.

I really don't see why not wanting to deal with a non-premium member makes you a rankist. Maybe people just don't want to deal with the them? Disrespect is disrespect, ranks don't change this rule and the rule itself is already implemented.

Doesn't give them the right to act superior over the nonpremium members.

They can act however they want as long as it doesn't break our rules.

If they aren't being disrespectful about it (which is against the rules) it's fine.

shoutbox is a paid donor privilage. and should be made that way.

 

[Cooltime2]

I am not saying about that. I saying how premium and supreme act to them. They shouldn't post any suggestion that removes the rights of members of McM. It isn't fair to them.

Except they have no rights to speak in the shoutbox so why should they have eighths to view it either? The shoutbox is for premium/supreme users only so the messages should also be for premium/supreme users only.

 

[Cooltime2]

They should be able at least view the shoutbox and imagine themselves enjoying the conversation that we have in shoutbox.

Using mcm and all of it's features isn't a right, it's a privilege granted by the site owner, as with all other privately owned sites. So what if people suggest that something be removed? In this case it's being able to access a premium feature which they don't even need to have access to anyway. (As stated before by me, the only reason it's good for non premiums to see the shoutbox is so that more people see advertisements and they can see how the shoutbox looks like making them possibly want to buy premium)

Also, just because a suggestion is made doesn't mean it will be accepted. If someone posts a suggestion wanting to change something regarding a certain topic, does that mean we disallow all suggestions being made about that topic? No. That's absurd.
