is there a grace period after donating to be able to use mic and pms
You dont need to donate to be able to use the mic and do pm's..You just need to make sure you set the mic settings to "allow".Click the mic icon in the text box in the chatroom and click allow. Hope this helps.

Blue_ladybug. There is a new rule. The new members who joined after august 1 have to be subscribers to be able to pm and use the mic. I dont know if there is a grace period witness, I think that is something the mods would be able to help you with like alaynaj from the lounge room. God bless you.![]()

As Prodigal told you earlier today, it can take 24 hours (sometimes as much as 48 hrs) for these options to be activated. Only RoboOp has the ability to confirm the donation and even he takes a day off occasionally to spend time with his family.
This is no longer the case. This site has always had problems raising enough money based on random donations yet it's users (99% of which never contribute a cent) continue to demand that we upgrade and update the function of the site without contemplating that it takes money to purchase software, pay the server bill, and just as important support the labor of RoboOp and his family.
As of August 1st the mic, pm, and some of the rooms in chat have become features only available to paid subscribers. Users who joined prior to Aug 1st have been grandfathered under the old policy, but new users will have to pay for an annual subscription to have those popular features available to them.
Shouldn't there have been a thread or pm to everyone explaining this? I never understood why the mic didn't work and who knows if the recipients ever received my messages.![]()
You have to pay to PM? This will probably cause a drop in new user interest. People can go to countless other sites with this feature for free. The mic i can see, as that's a less common feature than PMing. But PM is pretty much a standard feature in chat rooms.

I think new users should at least be able to use the PM feature to contact the moderators (only) so if they need one, they can talk in private to a mod, rather than have to air a grievance in the main room or use CC mail.
