I never donated for the site and I was a regular member for one and a half year. Im not a dork. But some members can go forward and stupid ppl will stay where they are. How did K4rMa become a Gmod for example? He was a regular member ,he was often attacked by moderators but he kept making shares and he got uploader, gold , and soon GMOD.
You just have to take advantages of your knowledge and opportunities, avoid making threads like THIS, and you may be treated the same way.
You guys act like the forum is your life. TOO MUCH DRAMA. This ain't real life, these sites are built for entertainment purposes, go out and find a gf or something.
