FREE PREMIUM ACCESS TO ALL LOYAL MEMBERS

[ATF Hobby]

With these direr times, do you think ECCIE should provided all of its loyal members with FREE Premium Access (at least for a limited time)?

Those of you will then pose the question, why? And I will then reply with, well then give some reasons as to why a yes would be beneficial or why you support a no.

They do for *active* Hobbyist.
Moot post unless the OP needs to expand upon his initial question.

I don't really see the point, a single decent review gets you 6 weeks.

Good points Precious and Gaston.

I think the term "active" has probably changed liked the direction of the stock market and think reviews have probably have done the same; I know my neck of the woods has.

Just a question I posed on trying to ramp up hobbying activity.

Seems like the question I posed helps out the Hobbyist more than the Provider.

What do you all think we could do to help Providers (other than the obvious of arranging encounters and writing reviews)?

[Why_Yes_I_Do]

I did a little poll in the AMP section on whether hobbyists are staying away from AMPs or not. It split at about 50/50% https://eccie.net/showthread.php?t=2703203


I wonder what a broader poll of the industry might yield...

it probably depends on how the "industry" feels about the odds of dying for pussy...

LOL. I think we all already know the answer to that one.

No, it has not changed. It has always been as quoted from the premium membership link:

"...Each approved review posted will earn 6 weeks of Premium Access credit. This credit will continue to accumulate for as long as the member continues to post reviews. When requesting credit for a review submission, please include the URL link to your review(s). Inquiries may be sent to your local mod team. ..."
