upgrading

Post by link5481 »

I am thinking about upgrading to silver but why do gold members hate all the people that win that are not gold.

Quite simple really we pay for the right to play here they do not. A gold membership is only about a quarter a day everyone can afford that.

Agree with you dawg. Those that don't upgrade to the gold membership are like people that step over dollar bills to pick up pennies.

Not all gold members do. Welcome to the site, at ANY level you wish to be at.

To me, that thinking equates to believing only those gambling more money at a casino are entitled to win.....

I do not hate or lack respect for members that are not gold or silver. I just think that by choosing not to pay the $80 a year for the gold membership that they are really missing out. $80 a year nowadays is nothing. Cheap for the entertainment value you get in exchange. There is not a program on TV as entertaining as the ongoing feud between Tedlark and Daburglar. But you get that anyway even with the free membership.

     Yes, but keeps my knees from stiffening up after a long vp session. I actually don't mind the ads, but do plan on an upgrade fairly soon. Can't see silver though. Go for the gold.

Seriously?   Wow chatty, you must have the worst cable company in America!   I do not have a problem with people who do not pay the amount to be GOLD but still partake of the games here......You all need to be careful of your criticism though of all the NON-Gold forum members and players, since CASINO KNIGHT (CK) is amongst that demographic, and if you get on the wrong side of him, be prepared to "DEFEND yourself" from his "warrior" prowess, not to mention his beloved firearms.

That coming from a guy who just went gold less than 1 year ago.

Gotta run, I have some more pictures I need to recycle and post as new. Err, I mean....

I used to be annoyed by the interchange between the two but now I find it highly entertaining. I really hope at some point though we will get an episode where they will finally meet up. Who knows. They might actually like each other.
