Norm Kirchner Posted December 9, 2008 Report Posted December 9, 2008 Now after losing my champion status since joining NI, apparently the admins @ LAVA have removed my premium member status. What's that about! If anything, NI folk should be granted premium status just by the sheer fact that they support the careers of most people on the forums and anything to make our lives easier in turn makes your lives easier.

Norm Kirchner Posted December 9, 2008 Author Report Posted December 9, 2008 Yes, I understand that I have a nice eagle next to my name now, but as well I now have the google adds too!! and no access to the premium topic (not like anyone uses it,) but I'm assuming that the other perks are gone as well.

It could be argued that we $upport your career Congratulations by the way - I haven't had much time to reply in the last couple of weeks. -Toby Quote
Michael Aivaliotis Posted December 9, 2008 Report Posted December 9, 2008 Sorry Norm, I meant to add you to the NI group and keep your Premium capabilities. Something like what I did for Mr. Mercer. It should be fixed now. Normally these issues are resolved quickly without fanfare through the PM system. Quote

I was pointing out that it probably took a Star Wars fan not to know that the borgs' motto was "Resistance is futile" ... but you're right, if I were a real hardcore geek, I would have known it was from HHGG.

I'll put that on the list of things to fix. Quote
dblk22vball Posted December 11, 2008 Report Posted December 11, 2008 Congrats on the Ni Job. I also see that you have been scrubbed from the NI Certified professionals website, I guess they dont want to let it be known who they have :worship: Quote
