Let's put this into a stoner perspective.


1. How many of you came here and THEN learned how to grow better Bud?

2. How many of you came here and met great people and even tho it's against the rule's traded or was gifted a nice cut or 2 or ... that would have cost you a small fortune in time,food and effort to get yourself?

3. How many of you come here to post up YouTube bullshit threads that have nothing to do with Buds or the like that if it costs ya would go away?


Now imagine the money ya saved from not having to go down in the burgs to score with your local dealer in that seedy part of town and risk being shot ripped off or busted because you grow you own?


250.00 for a lifetime? I'd call that a pretty good investment.

Ummm, except most everyone here learned everything they know from OVERGROW, not this site, on top of that they MET all those people they traded cuts with ON OVERGROW not this site, we mearly all had to migrate here, without US and overgrow, i don't think gypsys business would of done 1/4 as good as they have done. That's not saying i don't appreciate gypsy keeping this site here, as I work in the IT field and understand how much bandwith a site like this uses... and the cost associated with it, I just happen to agree with lots of the members, the pay table is just a bit steep for the lifetime membership, or rather, maybe its just the 3 month and 6 month memberships that bother me so much, yea actually i think its that its 50$ for 3 months...if anything it should of been 25$, the only discount should of went to a lifetime membership... but thats just my opinion, and they are like as.sholes ;)

I don't think 100 bucks for a year is bad at all... i just don't like how there is no way to do a few payments with the lifetime plan, and how the 3 and 6 month plans are 200-300% more for no good reason, when setting up these accounts, the persons thats setting them up should just have to choose how long the account is going to stay in that "special" state for, there should be no need for an admin or mod to go in a 3/6/12 months later and cancel that persons premium membership, if there is, you need a new IT person.

I do not see what all of the fuss is about. As soon as I am able I am in. I will go with a 3 month to start with and then up from there if that is OK. Funds are a little tight after the move to the EU. But the exchange rate is in my favor right now.

Really, I just do not understand why some people have to make a big deal out of nothing.

Good job Gypsy and DG. Thanks for the site and all the work and effort that goes with it.

Do you think because OG went down that people quit growing? Thousands of new growers have learned how to grow thanks to IC in the two years since OG stopped. And thousands more will learn in the future. I can think of a couple dozen that I have helped myself, and a lot of people here have done the same or more......

Hey V-man & JJ,, my father always taught me that the best things in life are free but in the same breath he also claimed that you get what you give, which can be interpreted many ways. The best part is there are plenty of options for one to choose from, it just depends what you want.

I myself have been 'gardening' for many years, long before OG's inception, but to say that I haven't learnt anything from frequenting ICmag would be a lie..... There are those who grow and those who know, but if someone ‘thinks’ that they know it all then they honestly shouldn't be here. The bizarre fact is that it doesn't matter how hard you strive to cater for everyone, without a doubt there will always be the ungrateful few that have got to whinge.

Peace fellas

Hi Gypsy, DG and all! Thanks for the toke outs under the 420 this year... Truly lovely people you are!!!

I just have another little question regarding the subscription.

I wanna go eternal, but I think about changing my handle/nicknameat the same time...

-Will I need to reach the 100/50 post limit anew to get the PM-service if I subscribe under a new profile?

Best regards, Kenny
 
i have to look at it this way .. when i first made the choice to grow i needed to find the right way to do it .. i contributed to the site that first gave me the info to do it right .. if that site (overgrow) was still around i would still have the lifetime membership .. nothing in the weed growin deal is forever as long as the powers that we let be are lookin to take ya down .. i dont really no how someone can say there givin a lifetime membership when they themselve no damwell that everything can change in a min when the gov gets involved ... there are no absolutes with the govs of this world .. remeber OVERGROW .. no one can say lifetime cause u never no how long u will live .. remeber when they say lifetime ... its there lifetime not yours ...

peez ...

its not for everyone, obviously. n some folks feel differently about contributing than others.

If you think a lifetime membership is too much, there are other options, like for a year..

I was happy to get a "lifetime" membership... regaurdless of how long my, or IC's, lifetime is..
 
very fair all things considered... it's kind of a shome so many people who have been around for so long feel that these donation recomendations are so unresonable...expect my cash for a lifetime within 2 months.

I'd like to say thanks to those that were able to help offset some of the costs. And also to those not able to help at this time for just being a part of the family. If there comes a time that what you have learned here has saved you a pile of cash. You can always try to help out then. I hope people understand now that either way, everyones a member......

BUMP and repeat! When I started there wasn't internet or anybody I knew to help me out. Can't say how many plants I tortured learning, but it was alot. If there was an IC or the like I would of saved alot of time. I know there are alot of longtimers here, I imagine most feel like I do when someone posts their first grow ever with great results. Damn my first try sure didn't come out like that or somesuch. New generation growers have no idea how good they have it now. Yes, the site promotes sales, yes the site also gives
access to many breeders and those showing the breeders work, seems sweet to me. We are not just entitled to have a place like this to learn/share, people need to make it happen. :headbange

Please keep bumping this thread, I can't stand seeing the phrase "Big Fuckin Problems" at the top of the forum index every time I open the iindex page. Same reason I don't watch the news.

The discussion whether it is worth the dole or not is getting way too old now...

-But just as I asked before:

Will I need to reach 50 posts or something to send/receive PM if I subscribe under a totally new handle???

Noone able to answer my question or what?!?

Every new user or new handle starts all over, so yes you would need 50 posts with a new handle to be able to PM again just like when you 1st started, hope that helps :)

I just joined NORML, because I want to support an organization that believes, as I do, that marijuana is a useful medication that needs some serious research done, and is also the least harmful of ALL intoxicating substances. Why the hell wouldn't I support the site that tought me almost everything that I know about growing quality bud? not that I couldn't grow before, just that I made many more mistakes back then, and spent a lot of time trying to correct those mistakes. Now I consider myself an accomplished grower and I am working on becoming an amateur breeder. All thanks to this site and the many wonderful people that have helped me along the way. You can count me in for the lifetime - probably will have to wait for my next harvest before I will have the dough but I am in.
Please note that this is from someone who has been a member since this place opened practically, someone who doesn't even post much and doesn't feel it necessary to have a thousand pics in his gallery, not that those are bad things, but even I feel that I have benefitted enough from this site that $250.00 is nothing compared to what I have gained from hanging out at this site.
Thanks Gypsy and DG, all the mods, and all of the supporters so far, I will be joining you soon.
