I think we should disable non premiums viewing the shoutbox. I hate them contacting me about stuff I say in shoutbox and I dont want them to see our shoutbox either

I sometimes write things that I dont want non-premium to see.
I didnt even know that they can see it.

These scammers are viewing our shoutbox.
I wasn't bothered to actually look at the screenshot. But now I did, you guys really fail. 5 of them were banned for scamming. An insane amount of bans were for one guy (creating multiple accounts) You cannot even account it as proof.

You must be dumb.

All you guys do is insult people ( Major weakness). That's why I wouldn't trust you too. So, this went from "Help, someone gives me a message!!!! Heeelp!" to all donors are trusted and non premiums are scammers and from 5th grade and cannot read, oh and dumb ofcourse. While the whole thread is about people can see my message oh no! He even stated that it was only recent. So it will probably go away too. But removing something because it gets annoying for a few days is dumb.

And anyways getting scammed is your own damn fault. If you get scammed by a non-prem ( The losers) as a donor ( Trust worthy Gods) then you are really dumb. Yes you. If you get scammed by no matter who you are dumb and you made a mistake learn from it and don't get scammed again.[DOUBLEPOST=1460233522][/DOUBLEPOST]
It made me feel dumb the first time I tried to use the SB when I was a default member. I legit spent like 3 hours messing with my settings and preferences trying to get it to work before I saw the "Upgrade your account" button at the bottom.
Or just read the message above: "only premiums can use the shoutbox"

You are making such a fuss about this, and still dont understand what I am saying.

90% of the scammers lurking on here don't have a premium account, which makes it possible for them to view the shoutbox.
I never said premium members are better, or that every non-premium members is a thief.

You're looking really bad right now... I dont know why people can't just agree with someone else, or stand corrected.

The entire argument about how the majority of banned/scamming members are non-donators is completely ridiculous.
  • Only a small fraction of members are donators in the first place.
  • Donators are usually people who have stayed here for a while and have invested time into MCM. They aren't going to waste $10 or $25 on a rank when they're in all likelyhood going to get banned.
  • If a donator does scam, he does it on an alt which he's not going to invest money in.

Does it really matter? It is better to have more scammers banned with shoutbox than more scammers lurk around without shoutbox.
I don't feel really strongly about it either way, but the fact that many of you are arguing in illogical ways (like about how the majority of banned members aren't donators) is kindof annoying.

What about people who still donated such as getting a name colour because they cannot afford the rank but there still supporting the site/form.

If you want to sell premium services and don't want non-premiums to see it then post it in the Premium Services Section.

Now that we're at it, let's make the entire forum Premium and Supreme only.

Your logic is so flawed, it's crazy.
Why can't we?[DOUBLEPOST=1460594784][/DOUBLEPOST]Also, I want my 37 agrees back on the thread

it might be pointless to see the SB without being able to post however just as equally on the opposite side being able to see the SB can help non premiums see what people are selling.
the argument of non premiums spamming you is just plain ridiculous. you are on a PUBLIC forums site and posting in a shoutbox for all to see. and your argument is what?? really.
If you are so concerned about non premiums seeing what you have to post then post in the premium forums. this request is rather pointless in my opinion. there are just as many potential idiots who are premium as who are not. no matter how much you try to restrict or sensor you will always find people who push or break the rules so im yet to see a actual valid and decent reason of why you should cut viewing the SB.

Just my 2 cents

The agrees for suggestion thread now counted as neutral only. Also, it is flawed because of one fact. If you are truly 11, you haven't learned about the U.S. History about segregation then. All I can tell you is that the world in the USA wouldn't be the same without that event.
Yeah we have. We learned about that last year. I know about US History

You literally disrespected 70% of the forum. I'm not going to allow such a thing.

Go have your shitty opinion on 4chan or something.

Now go back on topic.

Sigh, you know I dont spam ;)

I dont think premiums dont scam, more like old members dont scam + with ratings and vouches. I've joined before you, and I haven't scammed you?

I disagree, the shoutbox is a way someone can advertise their business. If non-premiums can't see it, their revenue will be lower than if other people with money to spend don't have premium. Agree?
