coldy316 Posted January 24, 2008 Posted January 24, 2008 I have just browse through this forum and have seen so many restrictions, why is there so many restrictions in here. how are ppl ment to get help if you restrict ppl from viewing the whole board? I came to this forum to get some help to fix my own forum and cant view any of the topics because they are all restricted but only some certian group can view them. this is utter outragous and stupid
CharlesC Posted January 24, 2008 Posted January 24, 2008 Because you have to be a customer, you have to pay for Invision Power Board.
coldy316 Posted January 24, 2008 Posted January 24, 2008 so your telling me that i have to pay invision board to give me answers to solving my problem
stoo2000 Posted January 24, 2008 Posted January 24, 2008 That's usually what a support contract is, which you get with an IP.Board License..... Welcome to the real world :)
UBERHOST.NET Posted January 24, 2008 Posted January 24, 2008 Because you have to be a customer, you have to [b]pay[/b] for Invision Power Board. I have paid for IPB Perpetual, IPB Standard, plus Blog, Gallery, and Downloads, but you don't see a red plus by my name.
stoo2000 Posted January 24, 2008 Posted January 24, 2008 ThI have paid for IPB Perpetual, IPB Standard, plus Blog, Gallery, and Downloads, but you don't see a red plus by my name. Same here, I have a perpetual, but don't need the support, so I opted out of a support contract :)
bfarber Posted January 24, 2008 Posted January 24, 2008 Before jumping on the poster and assuming he hasn't paid (as stoo and uberhost pointed out), it's entirely possible that the user just hasn't renewed their contract, which is perfectly fine. The assistance forums on this site are restricted to users with current support contracts. In order to gain access to those forums, you must purchase/renew a support contract for the software you are trying to access the forums for.
UBERHOST.NET Posted January 24, 2008 Posted January 24, 2008 I came to this forum to get some help to fix my own forum and cant view any of the topics because they are all restricted but only some certian group can view them. this is utter outragous and stupid It's quite inexpensive to renew your support contract, and you'll find that your questions can be solved quickly through the ticket system or right here in the special forums which are accessible by anyone with a current contract. Beyond answers there are other perks such as up-to-date mods, skins, and other goodies. Best, Rick
Mark Posted January 25, 2008 Posted January 25, 2008 Coldy, you appear to have registered yesterday... if you own an active license it is possible that you just aren't logging in properly - make sure you log in using the same username and password that you set up when you purchased your IP. Board account. (As his account was registered yesterday, that either means that he registered an account here not knowing about the customer group system or hasn't purchased a license as all licenses come with 6 months initial support
