Renewal (2013) - Page 4 - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

The Registry chose to process all online transactions through paypal. You don't need a paypal account though. When you checkout and the paypal screen appears, there's a link that says "Don't have a PayPal account?". If you click that you can pay using a visa etc.

Thanks

Dave

Dave,
I'm not sure I like having to use paypal, I don't have a paypal account and I don't want one. I an pay as a guest but it's asking for my phone number. I'm not sure this is the best way to have members renew

DaveK · 02-10-2013

Most online payment systems ask for a phone number as a backup for contact in case of problems with a transaction. You can renew offline, by filing in the following form by check or credit card

Renewing online is more convenient for most people.

Thanks

Dave

Is it to late to renew or do I need to go to a new membership? I had a problem with the login when the renewal notice came out and forgot to resolve it.

All past-members can renew rather than joining new and we encourage that to help us maintain accurate records. If you need any help logging in just drop me a line by pm or email and I'll be happy to help.

Thanks

In the General Section (Forum News) I see there are some 946 posts. I actually see only 66 total posts when I open up Forum News. Does that have something to do with being a Paying Member?

We no longer have "Reputation Points" and the last post in that sticky is dated 2008 with nothing said about "Reputation Points" no longer exist. Why "Reputation Points" no longer exist would be Forum News.

It ALL relates to Renewal in regard to being (or not being) a Paying Member I would say as there is definitley a difference on what a Paying Member sees and what a Non Paying Member sees when on the Forum. I actually would like FULL Transparency before I Pay To See

Cliff, when in Forum news, if you look below there is display options. Change the option to display from the beginning, not the last 100 days.

That explains that

The last post in Forum News was in January 2013 so I guess I did not miss much

The Forum News section keeps reverting back (after I change the option to "from the beginning") to show threads from the last 100 days it appears but just for Forum News. The other 4 sections under General show threads from the beginning without reverting back to last 100 days everytime I look at the section.

Is that a correct observation?
