I have put your gold status back - That should allow you your usual privileges - not sure what happened here unless your subscription expired - I'll chat to Keith.
Peter
Thanks Peter. Don't know about the subscription expiration date. Don't we get a message when the expiration date is there??
Probably - that is why I have simply reinstated your status!
But when do I pay my members fee? It must have been more then a year ago
Other thing is, can you update my posted numbers back to 3000 instead of 24 now

All issues solved, thanks guys (Peter, Keith), except for uploading pictures... How do I do that (now)?
Leslie:But when do I pay my members fee?
I mean contribution instead of fee (is that the same?).
Uploading pictures works (already did, but forgot some things to do first)!
I'm happy and used to this new forum now, but still missing the old threads!

I know Keith, thanks. Can you please update my postnumbering?
Leslie: Thanks Peter. Don't know about the subscription expiration date. Don't we get a message when the expiration date is there??
I have a similar concern !
I got my 3 stars but not the foundation member "f" (btw, I just realised the font size seems to have disappeared, so if you can't read it, that was an eff)
I wrote to Keith about that and my post count, hopefully he will get around to fixing them both soon
My recollection is that I too should have received a membership renewal notice by now, but I have not seen it yet
BeoNut since '75
My subscription just arrived yesterday - so the system is working!
Peter: My subscription just arrived yesterday - so the system is working!
Peter,
I am pleased that your reminder for subscription arrived yesterday, but I can confirm that for a period reminders were NOT being sent out. The reason was that a recent Microsoft software update had stopped the Task Schedular and not restarted it after the update and I had not noticed.
I can confirm that it is running now, but some members may not have received reminders recently.
I have set the Task Schedular to run the reminder ASP code at 14:00 every day UK time and will pick up any subscriptions which are going to expire in 4 weeks time.

See my notes above
Great Keith, thanks!
@ Keith, when will members that should have renewed (like me) be notified?
I am afraid that my renewal has fallen in between floors because of this Microsoft Task Scheduler thing you mentioned.
Thanks

Ferdinand: @ Keith, when will members that should have renewed (like me) be notified? I am afraid that my renewal has fallen in between floors because of this Microsoft Task Scheduler thing you mentioned.
You should have been notified before Christmas that your renewal was due, but unfortunately you were not.
However, you have been manually set to Gold on the forum, but to keep it you will need to go to the web site and renew.

Thanks Keith (and/or Peter) for fixing me up !
And I shall look forward to getting my subscription reminder !
Hi,
I am pretty sure I missed a reminder also - when I check my membership renewal on the main site I am apparently paid up until Nov 2012 - but pretty sure I did not pay membership in Nov 11. Last email reminder I can find was Oct 2010. Can someone check me out??
Don't want to be a free loader!!
Have also noticed that I also have gold founder status on main site but just gold on forum - could this be because my membership has lapsed??
Let me know if I owe some subscription fees...
Thanks.
We don't get any reply regarding our memberships contribution/notification 2012 so I guess it's a gift from Beoworld?

I think all gold members with more than 1000 posts, gets 2012 free

-downside of that rule is the awesome and complete surprise when things you never knew you bought turn up on the doorstep...
- I also apply this rule to answering work emails...sensible me!
Thought I was happy but I'm not! All valuable info that we have placed on the old forum is lost, I mean, there's no way to use the search function anymore. Is that going to be resolved? Or else this new step starting a new forum is going back to zero! Not happy at all
Even when I try Google as a workaround (searching Beocom 6000 reset) I get this message: Post not found. Not amused, totally not amused!
Thanks! I will wait :)

Hello, it seems that I lose 2 of my 3 stars recently, no notification received. I can't remember when it should happen. Could you check, please?

Your membership expired on 28th Feb 2012

I have a similar problem.
My stars and founder status is OK, but the postcount is really bad, as currently it seems, I never posted any message before the forum upgrade. Can You please check it for me? IMHO my membership expired, or will expire in the near future, but I did not get any message about it.
Thanks in advance
AT:Can You please check it for me? IMHO my membership expired, or will expire in the near future, but I did not get any message about it.
Your membership expires on 17th April like many other members who joined on the first date of Beoworld on 17th April 2007 and you will receive an automatric reminder in the next few days..
As defined in the other thread HERE about post count transfers. I have been honouring all requests for post count transfers up to last Wednesday.
Thanks for the reply, I wasn't online until then, and didn't found that thread after the deadline either. I was post my request there,
*
Some other problems with the forum:
- "Members On-Line" status has wrong post count - mostly - "(0)" for me for example, but it's all wrong for all users
- If You press the name, the search function will show "userid:XXXX" against to the user name (anyway it works)
- If I press "Posts you have not read" shortcut, I will get the list, but:
- I can't go to the last unread post, as I can get the first or the last only (maybe my fault)
- If I select "New since last visit" option, the list will be empty with this message: "There are no posts to show. This could be because there are no posts in this forum or due to a filter."
And a suggestion:
- I think, the "Posts you have not read" shortcut could be placed on the top on the page (where it was earlier)
I'm using Opera/WinXP, maybe these are faults for this case only. I hope these suggestions will help You to improve the site.
EDIT: +1 - I asked to "Email me replies to this post", and this option sent me this post, the post with which I asked for the replies. I think, this is a bug this way.
My membership renewal email arrived as usual today. Renewal is due 16/4/2012
Those that have not received a reminder, are you sure that BeoWorld has your correct email address??????
Regards Graham
My email has not changed since my membership and as far as I can remember I always get notifications for payment? Let me know when I have to pay my contribution?
joeyboygolf:Those that have not received a reminder, are you sure that BeoWorld has your correct email address??????
Very good point.
Let me add that email is unreliable by design. It was that in the '80s when it was first designed, and the fundamental problems have never been fixed in Internet protocols, although the more reliable networks of today usually make it seem that way. They can also get lost for a number of other reasons, like spam filters incorrectly eating them, or your mailbox being over quota. I would never rely on email reminders for anything.
Regular gold (and silver) members will know their membership has expired when they aren't gold any more¹. Then you can upgrade and that's it, your status is reinstated immediately when the payment goes through.
Founder members... if you really are interested in keeping the founder status, is it too much to ask that you mark a single date in the calendar once a year?
¹ except for a few cases after this forum upgrade, when the roles weren't automatically transferred. These have been corrected per request, I believe.

Whilst I manually set your Status to Gold after the forum changeover, on checking your status I see that your membership actually expired at the beginning of December last year and your status will automatically change back to Bronze next time you logout/login via the web site unless you renew your membership.
To view your membership expiry date go to the beoworld web site HERE and click on link as shown below
That's what happened to me, although my expiry date was in December, I wasn't downgraded on the old forum, nor did I get the email.
That's what I tried to say as well for the xxxx time.
One more x and I consider this year is as a 2012 gift...
Hi Keith,
I lost my Posts count. It's always nice to be a newbie outside, but this is home here!
