Membership access

[dng2014]

I have recently become a fully paid up member but I still cant download anything from the forums. I can download from the membership section though.

I have sent 2 emails to support but without a reply so far.

Can someone help please????

Seems to be a new feature on the forum, share something and recieve a thanks before you can dl. Maybe a polite PM to Blunt?

thanks thephantom. I dont have a problem in sharing its just my understanding that a paid member would be able to do whatever forums contributors do plus have full access to all content.

Then again even sharing doesnt guarantee that you can download, you still need to receive a thanks!!!

Even so, in the error message that it gives, it says:

"You can become a member and remove all the forum download restrictions permanently (even after your membership expires) as well as get access to the members area and help support this site."

Im having a similar problem. Fully paid member but cant d/l from the forum. Wouldn't be bad if the members portion had the same videos as the forum. Is there even a point to being a member?

I paid up and became a member so i would have full access to ALL videos. This is not the case. Most of the best videos are in the forums and I cant download them..

Thanks for the heads up guys, think I'll wait until this gets sorted to do anything. I have downloaded 1265700293 files after all

I'm not sure why you didn't get a reply sorry, maybe you have a filter on your email blocking our email or something.

That bug has been fixed. It was just displaying a unix timestamp instead of your actual download count. Regardless you were still over the leech limit at the time.

I'm pretty sure it says on the members area home page that the videos are being moved over to the new gallery. As you can see it will be finished very soon if you take a look at how many are being added each day. Only a few hundred are left to be done out of the 4158. Encoding all the videos into flash versions so you can quickly preview the clip before downloading is what has taken the most time to do. So anyway just relax, we are trying to make it a better experience for you with the new gallery software and are just tidying up a few loose ends now.

In regards to the removal of forum restrictions, you can see the link to the "Remove forum restrictions" form on the members home page and what is says there.
