Becoming Oldschool - EvBoard

**KCMO** · 05-11-2008, 07:40 PM

If you have been a member for 4 years or longer then please PM me and I'll convert your account to the Oldschool Group. Please do not ask to become a member of the EVboard OS group prior to your four year anniversary.

Well alrighty then.

Sweet Tigger · 05-11-2008, 09:53 PM

Aww, thats to bad I don't qualify.

Maybe in another four years I will.

^ It really should be lowered as most people here are from the last two years or so.

Anyway, another two years to go...

I definitely disagree with it being lowered. It's true that some of the more recent members here have contributed, but it means something entirely different to have been a part of the "Old School" EvBoard.

Though I do find it super funky that PS members that just happened to still be Paid Subscribers were able to keep their status and I also find it even more funky that others just got "voted" in on a very arbitrary basis.

The lesson learned is: That's the way the cookie crumbles. You gots to deal.

kylie you will eventually be an old schooler and honestly it is a tag and im guessing some extras such as larger avs etc etc.

and what a good lesson it is to

so just out of general interest what is the perks of being an "old school"er as from what i was reading and remember of the previous discussion it was not fully decided if the PS forum would remain private.

Or maybe the lesson learned is that the way the cookie crumbles ain't in a natural way and defeats the purpose of creating a new group to replace an old elitist group.

Sall I'm sayin'.

So is this a definite 100% 4 year time limit unless you were a PS? And does everyone who was "voted" in go back to being a normal member until the alotted time period?

Honestly for me, I don't really care about the other people that are a part of it. I just wanted the bigger avatar and mailbox. Sure it's nice to be rewarded for being loyal to something, but whatever. I don't see a huge mass of people joining simply because there are no seperate user groups.

Hopefully I can get changed back soon. I didn't realize how much bigger my inbox was, and now I'm having to go through old PMs and figure out which ones to delete so I can PM again. I'm over the limit by about, oh....136

I did PM KCMO yesterday but I'm not even sure if he got it - can those with full inboxes send PMs?

EDIT: I just realized the name of the new group in comparison to my usertitle
